Feedback about Data center travel July 2025

[Volgia]

The restrictions feel like a response to people who wanted to raid on their own servers, bit of a tinfoil hat opinion here on my part I guess, but if the aim was to keep people on their servers there could be a better incentive without feeling like they're punishing us for the changes they made.

Unfortunately its a failed experiment, and it also punishes people who want to use the MB or go to a hunt.

I actually think that Hunts should have been kept for your DC only, but that's a topic for another time.
But yes you are right.

I still will always say them doing this lock is an over correction.

They should just either enable Cross Data PF. I would personally just merge both data centers into a Super Data Center. Keep every "server" but make it one Data center. You can still preserve your house, your FC, access your retainers, you can still travel, and also, PF will be just 1.

Personally, I'm cool with world visit, always have been. Data Center Travel was a mistake imo.

I wonder if CBU3 can put the genie back in the bottle.

My issue is that if I join into a party and a members home DC is on light, I can't even DM them for anything if they go back to light, so DC travel is good in that sense when I can go to light from chaos and actually message them to see if they're available. This actually happened recently when I wanted to do a Deep Dungeon run in 2 seperate days, so I was glad DC travel existed for that situation. Even if I ended up waiting for 30minutes for them to drop out of Eureka Orthos.

But that's kind of my only usecase for cross DC travel unless I am in a raiding phase and chaos is just dead, but I don't raid all the time so it's kind of whatever.

I would be ok with them to close DC travel, but allow cross DC messaging, but only if PF/DF is also cross DC.
but as it stands cross DC feels like a bandaid solution to what the actual solution would be.
