Limited Data Travel System

...If they're so concerned about people going to the Japanese servers, just close them off. They can have their own space, I'm sure the rest of us don't care. Nor are we that ridiculous, tbh....

It was worked out in the other thread that this is likely mistranslated. Based on the German version someone was kind enough to mention the word should be prices not values.

Had a look at it myself, and yes, the German and French version do say "ingame economy and market prices". But in the Japanese one "values" is used too (価値観)
So guess they do wanna keep things JP ONRY!...

I Srsly dont want this whole thing to happend. Its a reason i picked a certain Server and data center. Its a Reason why i want to be on a low pop server. It may not affect me, but the idea is still out there.
I understand people make friends thru discord and etc. over the data center. But what is the point exactly? Just pop up and si "hi hi<3" and leave? I understand the whole "immersive role playing" being played into. This is what the game is based off.

Having cross server was good for PF. But then cross server visit happend and i did not like its direction(market for example). I understand they want to "balance" out their servers so people can be on.. But before people creating characters it is OBV they pick one with "most populated" for social aspect.

I hope at some point all data centers of the same regions end sharing DF and PF, probably their idea. On the other hand... hunts are going to be even more of a clown fiesta.

Yoshi will 100% not let other regions onto the jp servers. They want their isolated group. They do not want to deal with filthy gaijin.

You know anyone can start a character on any data center.

[Ryaz]

And in what part do they say exclusively that this is to keep people OUT of the Japanese servers specifically?

They don't. You have to realize the forums tend to be... extreme. Yoshi makes a statement about wanting to be careful of Market board prices and economies, but they're considering implementing full on cross-server play in the future and that somehow equals Yoshi-P hates Westerners to them and wants to keep them out. It's a huge stretch by any margin, but human beings behind computer screens always seen to lose all rationality.

I don't think so. I believe you have to log in and out to change datacentre. Unless its a very quiet time of night... it's probably just going to be too slow to do this consistently.

I want NA and EU linked at the VERY least.

Currently on NA playing from the UK due to friends, but I'd like EU server travel to actually be able to play certain classes.

Yeah, something like this. Ping isn't an issue in my case (even though I play NA from EU myself), but going EU DC would actually benefit me in terms of running some content with people and/or my FC buddies. All they have to do is just disable market board and problem solved.
