Regional Segregation

[Cedri]

A bunch of americans on the same server...Awesome...Cooperation is our middle name rite? I dunno. I like the multinational feel of this game. It was one of the better aspects to XI and XIV. Sure I'm glad that we're reducing server lag, but I doubt many NA, EU, and JP players will be playing on international servers. So goodbye our international friends, it's been real.

No. I could think of a lot middle name's, but cooperation is not one of them. xD

You will not be able to change or choose Server after launch of ARR. Have been said a lot of Times allready, that you will stay on the Server you are on now if you are currently playing 1.0. World Transfer will come a while after Release, but i doubt that you will see 1000's of people switching Servers, after they experienced 2.0 and actually prolly less latency than there is right now.

No where has it explicitly been stated that current players will not be able to pick a different server at ARR launch; only that existing players will not be able to immediately transfer to servers designated for brand new players. How much sense does it make to introduce regional servers at the start of the game, yet not let people choose them?

Search Option is on top of the Page, you will find tons of similiar Topics, which include Dev Post's. Read them, not going to support lazyness.
It makes sense, since the Servers will remain International and less people will actually switch Server, when they are actually allowed to and/or have to pay for it. And by the way, where do you get "regional Servers" from? It will be Data Center's not Servers. 2 different pairs of shoes.

As others have said the devs never stated current players cannot change servers at launch. In fact I am pretty sure you will be forced to choose a server at 2.0 launch.

The only thing stated is existing characters will not be able to join a New Player server.
