Seperation of servers based on language?

[Droogan]

I hear this is being discussed in other boards, and I for one would like to say this is a terrible idea. Was wondering if anyone else had any input.

Tanaka said no to the JP when they request it it been a part of Final fantasy xi to have all the language together. I think it's a bad idea cut down the players base to there own servers i would lose a lot of friends from EU,JP,DU and many part of the world.

SO i agree no thanks.

I like to see the servers filled with life 24/7, so no thanks to separation.

From the look of it from the interview it seem like that what going to happen and they even thinking of added servers that everyone is new.

If both are offered, the global servers will end up having a much better community imo. Since only those who like that sort of thing end up going there, while those who are disgusted by the idea of having to interact with someone outside their own comfort zone don't have to do that.

ya but most JP that are comfort with the idea would leave with there JP community so they don't lose there friends but we see what happen.

I think everyone should share a server, and continue to use the translator function. there Isnt much a group of people who meet up to grind a dungeon need to talk about. Besides I think it takes away from a game if you limit your self based on language. alot of work went intot he global translator and it works pretty well in my opinion

・新規ワールドのオープン
・言語別ワールドの設置（言語別/グローバル併用を予定）
・ワールド移転サービス（新設ワールドへは一定期間制限）
The opening of new servers
The opening of new language-specific servers (our current plan is to have both language-specific and global servers in operation)
Server Transfer services (temporary restrictions over new servers)

Well, adding language specific servers would just just another fail decision regarding the game. All region/language-based MMOs already reflected that when you do this you end having a "useful" period on that server (peak period) and anyone that plays out of that period ends in a major disvantage...and, if someone that wants to play with japanese-speaking people is forced to move from japanese-speaking server due the lack of player online during the period he plays, then the language-speciific server loses its purpose.

I support the global servers concept! IMO it's good for the server health, to keep population at a decent amount the entire day and even for cultural interaction! I myself am a person that very often play overnight/morning, staying at JP and EU periods most of the time even though the "correct" server for me would be the NA/english one.

I'm glad everyone here wants global but go ask the Japanese what they want. My understanding is that a lot of them don't want to play with anyone but Japanese speakers.
