    [Suggestion] Make PF for dungeons cross server

    Low population servers got almost empty PFs.
    I know it's very hard to unite all PFs even on a single datacenter and SE not likely to do it but you gotta help us somehow.

    Im from Lich(EU) and recently I rolled a character on Odin(EU) just to compare populations (xivsoul says Lich got highest pop. Its bullshit). So here's example of PFs roughly at the same evening time:
    ODIN: http://i.imgur.com/3IyVxXj.png (used MS Paint to glue 2 pages of pf togeather)
    LICH: http://imgur.com/RjyUqBh

    People on Lich stop playing because theres not much to do and as they are gone theres even less to do for the rest.

    If they did do that it would be Cross Server Party Finder within your Server Group, just like how Dungeon Finder is.

    Hopefully SE will just merge Lich with another server.

    Current PF only searching tool to make party which under the same server.
    To enable cross servers PF, SE will have to make us able to contact peopole across server first, then forming a party.

    Also, merging server is currently complicate because of housing system.

    This is very challenge problem for SE, I wonder how will they fix low population server.

    Are you sure it's low population and not just the player base not actually wanting to do much of anything? Even on cerberus the PF is very random most of the time. Sometimes it'll be empty(yes completely empty) and sometimes it'll be like one or two SB/atma PFs and sometimes it'll be scrollable list of all the various stuff to do.

    It more depends on the population on what they want to be doing than anything else.

    As a character on what is likely the SMALLEST server of them all, Jenova, I advocate for this. I have been playing for almost 3 months, and have never seen more than 3 parties total in pf.

    Doesn't mean it doesn't suck when you can't get a party though
