Aether is officially locked

[badpuppeh]

What's funny is, on Excalibur, I have personally never really had a problem getting in, no real longer waits than the usual. I guess that may change soon.

This is false, Excalibur has huge wait times, you don't want to come here!

Hopefully that will reduce the number of times mentor roulettes gives me praetorium in the near future XD

But the exp. Prae > Castrum

Incoming Balmung alt hordes now lol

Well, it's happened before. I am more interested in the other news that was elaborated on.



I feel like a Oceanic datacenter will help partly with the problem of so many players cramming themselves onto a NA datacenter, because that's what tends to happen on most MMOrpg's for folk in Australia or South East Asia;
the ping's tend to always be better for them on a NA server as there is usually never a Oceanic option- which this game needs; desperately.

I'd hate to lose those folks, but they need much more pleasant gaming environments latency-wise.

Self fulfilling prophecy. You guys deserve it.

There's been a 60 to 100 or so person queue every time I login on Excal, these days. Quite literally the busiest patch/pre expac lull I've been in.

It’s already been announced.

The more things change, the more they stay the same.

So many people who want to play "where everyone else is" causing a bunch of problems, when they'd all be much better off starting on a preferred world where they get a bunch of benefits and don't have a stupid queue all the time.

You can only join mentor roulette with lvl 80 job so you wont get any EXP.

I dont personally care about extremes in mentor roul but MSQ dungeons are literally useless in mentor roul. What is there to teach?!

Why ERP on Crystal when you can do it with Asmon's ERP streams on Aether, oh wait.

Of course if you wanted high-end content done, you were not going to Crystal. Probably still not going to until Primal closes down.

Primal is good, but you know it won't be long until the gates shut considering the situation.

Also don't abuse the AFK timeout and be a Limsa Thot. Be a good Eorzea citizen and let people not wait an eternity to get on Aether.

If you want to complete any content in the game you can do so on any data center. Stop spreading this data center drivel.
