My Server is dying....

[Valoiz]

NO idea if this is happening to other servers but is getting almost imposible to do Stuff in Goblin (NA)

Leveling Roulettes/50/60 takes from 40 to 60 min to get in... during a Saturday/Friday nite

Sat Nite

[img=http://s16.postimg.org/nckp8yjf5/ffxiv_11292015_185851.jpg] Sunday nite ( left the queue and log off after 30)

And if the tank/healer left during the run... ur done... ask for someone help or get out.

Our residencial map will be a wasteland soon....

Some FCs already left the server cuz wasnt able to fill spots for statics. Also PVP queue takes 1+ hour - And Expert more than 20 min as DPS/Healer sometimes. PF is dead during the week and barely have 1-2 parties (usually 1 doing fates/hunts) on weekneds. Almost imposible to recruit new ppl for our FC (no newbies).

If this continues SE need to find a way to merge us to anoother server. I dont want to lose all my stuff, Our FC (1 year old), house, airships and also pay.... to move to a more populate server.

I Know the DF is Data Center Wide. Thats why i am asking if other servers are living the same....? Also the situation makes all content that requeires a premade party almost imposible to try/practice. A group in PF can take 45 min+ to fill during "prime times" (Friday/Sat nites - Sunday afternoon)

Some suggestions to try to fix the population issue:
1- Let ppl tranfer for free to the lowest 5 populated servers.
2- New players incentives on low populated servers:
- +50% exp bonus till one of ur jobs get to lv 60
- Incetives table (only for sprout chars):
lv 10 : free minion
lv 20: free ligthing event weapon x1
lv 30: Free ligthing event set
lv 40: Choco Barding
lv 50: 1000 poetics
lv 60: 1000 laws

I am hearing this happening in other servers too. That is one reason why some people are transfering. I know that add up to the problem lol, but it suppose it is time for you to probably check other servers if your doesn't start to increase its numbers.

The Duty Finder is server wide, you'll be put in queue with everyone else in your datacentre. That has nothing to do with your server being dead, unless your entire datacentre is dying which I doubt.

Sometimes though, I wonder how it really works. Because my data center has the 2 biggest servers on it and you can't possibly tell me out of all those people, not a single tank or healer are queuing up for anything, causing 30+ minute waits on things like high level or leveling. Don't even bother with pvp unless you're Gridania, it's over an hour wait.

I have the same issue specifically with roulettes and the duty finder. Roulette queue times are much longer than the time in queue for a single dungeon of any level for me. Single dungeon < 15 mins, Roulette > 45 mins. I have stopped doing roulettes due to some basically never popping.

^ This. Sometimes I can get into one of the expert dungeons within 3-7 minutes if I queue specifically for them, but expert can take up to 20-30. Around 10-15 with a healer friend queuing with me.

Goblin is in the same data centre as big servers like Balmung so I find it hard to believe that the duty finder can be that quiet unless something is technically wrong with it. Are you queued up with some unusual language selected?

My data centre is teeny but I can easily get into a roulette on any job at any time of day. PVP, however...

[Bixillarla]

The duty finder is data center wide not just your server. Your server dying is not the problem with the DF.

[Gilraen]

The problem might be the Leveling Roulette and not the server density. Despite being why we have Roulettes to begin with, the Leveling and Main Scenario Roulettes are falling by the way side as their rewards just don't mesh with community demand anymore. The community wants Esoterics and only three Roulettes rewards those; Expert, Trials and Frontlines. Law has gone the way Soldiery, sadly.

[Riardon]

Even if your server has only 5 ppl online this wouldn't affect DF queue AT ALL. DF system is server wide. DPS queues were always big and it really depends what dungeon you queue for and what time of the day.

It's 5 minutes for a DPS on Balmung. Come, join us.

Balmung and Goblin are on the same data center, we have the same five minute queues
