Aether Data Center 100% Congested

Whoa to those trying to get friends on Aether now. One has to wonder if they'll add additional servers soon.

Doubt it. The buzz'll die off after the first couple weeks and server numbers will be more consistant.

I agree that the hype will fall off but I think it will likely take at least a month as the first raid doesn't release till 2 weeks in.

Probably not. They are going to want players to populate the other NA data enters, so it’s doubtful they would add more worlds to aether so more people could pack onto one dc.

I’m glad I moved from Aether to Crystal now. Been enjoying my new server too.

Same. Just came back from Excal to Goblin and I'm happy I was able to get a house with little issue and have a smaller pop world to log into for the MSQ.

We could be Goblin friends! I was able to get a small house too without any issue as well

Please do! I've been on Crystal before the split through Zalera but I want more friends since I came back.

So what are the chances we will be seeing free server transfers in the near future to try and balance out the population. I for one would take one, I don't really have anything binding me to my server.

Some nights there are so many people on Midgard that I can't see the MB's in Limsa, and it's not even the Aether server with the most people.

Well, transfers from Congested to Preferred/New servers are free and has been so ever since they introduced the system of Congested/Preferred servers. This together with the bonuses for transfering to a Preferred server is done precisely as an attempt to make the population spread out more.

So in other words - we are already seeing it.
