Sign if you would of Prefered this over the data Center shuffle

[Stigmar]

Simple proposal sign below if you would of preferred to see a Cross Data Center party finder implemented first before the implementation of World teleport/data center shuffle? Honestly it makes more sense to do it this way than upsetting the community to me anyway. However this more a simple yes or no rather than can it be done exercise because if enough people want it, it will happen "points to chocobo being out while queuing for df" took em 4 years but they did it!

I am curious as to how many would of preferred it done this way.

[Akatosh]

Quite honestly, it would have made more sense (and would have spared everyone a lot of the backlash we are currently seeing).

[Dirwen]

Depends if it helps with queue times. If it just means I'll get a queue of 100+ instead of 30+ as a DPS then no thanks.

Note the key words PARTY FINDER not DUTY FINDER

They are essentially the same thing. You create a party through the PF and then you use the DF to go in to an instance. Not sure having cross-centre matching would fix anything, if anything it sounds like a disaster waiting to happen based on previous issues.

Is that something they could reasonably do? Is the spaghetti code untangled enough to allow for it?

I certainly don't have that answer, but I would bet a lot of money on "no".

Few things one would be happy to tune out more than "our massively multiplayer online game isn't well equipped to allow a massive amount of players to play online together."

do other MMOs really not have servers (i've only played 4 in my life and everyone has them)? do they really have open world fields where you load 2000 players at the same time?
