A bandaid from Square Enix could be this, (only if EU servers are completely impossible, which it is'nt, just a matter of money)
Give EU players a "Fantastic" VPN stream connection to the canadian server. So we get the fastes possible way over the sea. And no bottle necks.
Im gaming from a fiber 30/30Mbit connection, but does nothing for me when server is overseas.
And I havent even mentioned the packet loss you get from going over seas (the skipping and stuttering , everything stops ingame for a few seconds)....
