Travel Restrictions

[1313]

Hi, please remove the data center travel restrictions, I don't know why it wasn't done with this past maintenance but there's no reason to keep it in place any longer. Thanks

Are any servers still experiencing an hours long queue? I know Gilgamesh was a wreck that first week.

My friends and I have just been gathering up on Dynamis.

I'm on Greg. The largest queue I think I've seen recently when logging in during evening "prime time" was ~150, and that only happened...once I think. Queue is usually either non-existent (the typical buffering of 30 or so) or hovers ~60.

I have a character on Aether, and I log in there without issue at any hour. It's been that way since before the patch

It doesn't even feel like anyone is transferring to Dynamis, queues are the same on Seraph every hour of the day.

I mean, I am on Maddy mostly, and our DC went from 8 to 16 parties match pre expansion to 78 to 90 parties match.

Have you seen the amount of travelers?

Thats where that comes from. Because people are forced to meet on Dynamis if they want to play with their friends.

I was just about to add a similar comment. PF on Dynamis has been much more active than normal by several magnitudes, especially for end game content.

Now put DC travel in the equation and world transfer.

The congestion excuse is already long gone, since after the first week pretty much.

SE is responsible for putting in DC travel in the first place, yes it's all great that Dynamis is alive right now thanks to all the travelers and people being stuck there, but it aint reality, nor is it how it's going to be in the future once DC travel opens back up, holding back on reopening DC travel fully because of something like this is absolutely silly, you are literally delaying the inevitable, it will happen be it today or in 2 weeks when it opens back up and people will leave, be it via DC travel or via transfer. Some will stay on Dynamis obviously, but a lot will go back to how it was pre DT, log in on dynamis for housing etc, and then hop over to other dcs for other things, and for older NA DC's, the meetup will be Aether for raiding and Crystal for RP, same as it has been for a while now.

Saying that it has been better as if its some massive improvement also makes no sense, because it's at the cost of people's freedom to DC travel and to see their friends and play with their friends, sure technically its an improvement, but its a very temporary one.

Yeah, I was pretty disappointed to see that the restrictions weren't unlocked on .01. Can't imagine where they thought congestion was still too much of an issue to keep the restrictions up for.
