GAME NEEDS MORE ADVERTISING in SOCIAL MEDIAS FOR OCE SERVER TO BE ALIVE!

[Rakdos_Grimdarkus]

We are already sick and tired of waiting for long QUEUES in duty finder and party finder. and wasted ALOT of time for nothing.

I also Hope SE will IMPLY the CROSSREGION to temporarily make the game alive. ESPECIALLY FOR OCE SERVER. we need to REGAIN POPULATION so badly!

They should also invest more on advertising to all social media platforms
(OH HEY! why not ADVERTISE ALL THE EDGELORD THE FEAST REWARDS! and ULTIMATES to ATTRACT MORE ALPHA MALE to play this game? = MORE CUSTOMERS FOR SE!) MORE ALPHA MALES= HAPPY kitty/dragon FAN GIRLS

Make the game more REGISTRATION more ELIGIBLE to all countries. I only SEE LIMITED options in MOG for SEA countries.

Let us not be SELFISH and not be closed minded. This is a VIDEO GAME & ENTERTAINMENT. we should be openminded by meeting different types of people in this world BECAUSE THAT'S HOW BUSINESS RUNS. MAKE FRIENDS, SPREAD your CONNECTIONS. and EARN MORE by giving them more influence on this game.

Yeah nah...

Although more does need to be done to improve the population on the Aussie servers, appealing to 'alpha males' only really is not the way to go about it (and as a so-called 'kitty girl', my preferences are for positive masculinity, enough of that toxic dudebro culture).

And speaking as an Australian player myself, I've stuck with my long term server Balmung because a) I like RP, and more imporantly, b) my friends are all there, so I go where my friends and family are. Especially my partner.

Really I think the Australian servers should never have been added as there clearly just isn't the demand for it.

It's not really got to do with advertising.

It has everything to do with the fact that it's hard to establish a brand new data center - just like it is hard to establish a brand new MMORPG. The very first players there see it empty, so they don't bother, and the cycle repeats.

There are OCE players but they won't go there in many cases out of fear they can't do things there, or can't leave to visit their friends on other data centers where their connections are well established.

I went from Crystal to Aether instead of Materia as a player from NZ, because I wanted to be around a hardcore crowd. On one hand, i still get bad ping, on the other, I can actually do content, and head to OCE if I desperately need to have good ping.

If I ended up in a full group of Aussie/NZ players, sure, I'd go to Materia to raid, but more than likely that's not happening, so I'll stick with raiding mid day for me and late night for NA players because I'm already used to playing with high ping anyways.

More cross region support really does need to exist though, just like cross-DC PF should.

[Gurgeh]

The game NEEDS cross DC party finder, NOT LATER than 8.0 . Take note SE Devs. and for OCE, that needs to be enabled-mapped into cross region.

Allow those who mistakenly sign up for OCE to stay. And who knows you actually might get OCE raiders to move back to OCE too eventually. You might get them taking their 7 player OCE statics to OCE to recruit the last place just for a better ping. That seems quite likely given the game's "netcode" issues.

Also, Australia is a stone's throw away from Indonesia, the 4th most populated country in the world. If they open up the game to that population, that could definitely help fill up the Oceanic data center.

There would be another better solution, actually enabling Cross DC PF. They already said they have the technology and means to make it happen, but they don't enable it because of JP culture. I'm ok with JP staying in their own bubble while the rest can cross DC PF.

[Raoabolic]

They should invest in billboards to market the game. :^D

Yeah, I don't understand that one. If Japan has that big of an issue with it don't include them. The rest of the game wants it.

I don't want it because of what it does to server communities, but in saying that they're already dead. They killed them with DC travel. So my main complaint is dead anyway.

Yup! I agree. I am not sure if this might be possible, but it would be nice to have a party, for example, appear once in the native DC, let's say Light DC as default, and also be listed in the general PF DC. With an option to list/ not list in the general PF DC.
