reconsider EU DC split

[Kogekigami]

Chaos as it was would have been an estimated 120k population, making it the most populous datacenter when considering it was only one datacenter. It needed to be split.

Ok that chart is actually really interesting. When did that get shown? I must of missed it when my stream bugged out for a few minuets.

Also it is sad that people are being made forced to chose but its a nesscary evil. With how big Europe is it is dumb to have on one dc and you can't really think its fair to just do a dc of new worlds

Wasn't from the stream, was calculated by approximate data from XIVCensus: https://twitter.com/Bwin4L/status/1063986895754006528

And the numbers are probably as correct as the numbers that SE always uses to show how many players we have.

Never said it was fact, it's an approximation. I would assume SE knows what they're doing if they are going through with the split.

If my quick head maths is right which it probably isn't the EU data centres will be 25% smaller than the next smallest data centre which is a little worrying.

I can understand NA with splitting mainly Aehter (yes i did that on purpose) and Primal up, since NA have already such a huge number of players. But EU is no where near this lose to justify a split right through the middle.

Doing Dungeons in the morning or even at night, where i am not working will be pretty much impossible for me then, because the Queue times already suck and with that half of the Playerbase, namly germans, will be gone.

This could kill either the newly made Data Center or the entire EU Region, because People will walk of the Servers if there is no reason to stay.

this move has outright messed with my static friends and my friends on Odin i'm n phoenix while half the static is on Omega no matter what happens someone is going to have to give up spending time with their friends especially on ShB release as well as any houses we have. i have an alt at 70 n Odin but once expansion is out it won't get touched for months maybe a year depending on content i don't wanna have to be main+alt leveling just so i can have fun doing stuff with all my friends

No more Moogle Server. Less french players in the duty finder, I love it.

If you have a problem you can use the free world transfer, whats the problem?

edit: Its their poorly design to relieve their problem with the instanced dungeons. Their solution for their next Raubahn and Pipin Ex. You gotta accept this decision. New friends, free companies and statics come and go. Always been, will always be.

See my above post I am being forced to choose which group of friends i can interact with whenever new content is released and expansions take up alot of my mains time

Basically every person who genuinely cares about the game and likes to play will ditch chaos and move to light, which removes the activity from chaos. I don’t even believe Louisoix/omega are full to begin with. Split will ruin the chaos dutyfinder. Everyone will move to light and only the people who like to stand infront of their fc house with their friends and don’t actually play, will probably stay on chaos. EU DC already has signifant smaller player base, why split it? Pvp is gonna be completely on one DC, too.
