Yoshida-san - GLOBAL Servers and Balancing Tweaks Instead of Regional Servers

[Colino]

Because it IS as simple as that. You ask them, they say yes, or they say no, and t hat's the end of that.

Or we could not have to ask them and they could manage a system akin to the one they've been using in that other MMO they've had for TEN YEARS. I've only played XI a handful of times but if there's one thing I haven't heard complaints of it's lag.

Ideally, they'll implement a game-wide friends list like XI had.

Ideally, but they most definitely won't at launch or any time close because they would've bragged and advertised the shit out of it.

If your friends are close, they're most likely going to stick together.

You really don't get it do you? I'm convinced you're just ignoring the point I brought up earlier because you keep responding in the exact same way, you're on auto-pilot or something.

You also have the option of not moving at all, and staying on the world you're on now. In the long run though, more people will be happy for a higher quality game experience free of lag.

It would have to work in the long run regardless because the once the communities have been destroyed they'll reform anew. That doesn't make it fun or a smart decision on their part though.

you know how i know you've never raided seriously in WoW or any other MMOs?

You know how I know you haven't played other games that TRULY require reactions and strict timing such as 1 frame links in some fighting games?

No seriously, you can go all hardcore raider all you want but it's not even close to games that truly rely on reactions and timing. Or are you really one of those WoW players in denial that really thinks it's the most skillbased game ever? Because if you think so I'm just gonna leave this argument right now... lol

And please illuminate me on how much incredibly difficult high level content you've experienced at lvl 21 alchemist and 16 conjurer.
