Why No Issues In Japan

[DrForester]

Why are there 25 servers for all of Japan, and only 25 servers TOTAL for North America and Europe?

You've been issuing pre-order codes, you knew how many people to expect, you knew there would be a lot more people playing from NA and EU than from Japan.

So I want to know why more than adequate preparations were made for the Japanese servers, and nowhere near enough preparations were made for the NA/EU group.

NA/EU servers haven't been stress tested at all. And having so little servers in the start for so many people is just...well...stupid...

[Fear]

They should of probably gave NA and JP equal servers + add another 8-10 for EU as a start and see how it goes, but we def. need more servers on the NA/EU datacentre and transfers to get people off legacy worlds, or make a new legacy world and offer transfers to it.

So 1-3month down the road all the worlds they ended would have like 1k or less people playing durning prime hours? There a lot of open worlds that are not yet full. The only reason it say it full is they lower the amount of players who can log in at once.

Honestly I don't know if you noticed, but since EA started, we peaked harder than JP at times they weren't expecting. They problems they've been "fixing" they apply to the JP servers now at the same time, so its like we're fixing the JP servers for them before they break.

yep. Shoulda expected the rest of the world... -.-; it is sad.

I think we are all missing a wonderful opportunity here and no one has seen it:

What if we all jump ship to the Japan servers?


(Incidentally, I also wonder what moron they hired for server logistics:

"-Okay, Japan-EU-and the Americas, what do you got?
-Dude, relax and hit this while I tell you my plan: Japan is isolated, we'll combine EU and Americas. And we'll give these two groups the same amount of servers.
-Wait... you want to leave a country with barely any land mass with as many servers as the entire western world, comprising most of the cultivated land on Earth?
-Exactly, Bro. Hang on, let me eat a shroom. Oh! That gives me a great idea. We'll just throw all the servers for EU into Canada... Canada is closer to Europe than Europe is, right? Right on US Geography courses!
-...yeah, okay. This logic checks out with me."

This is dawning on a lot of people, I have a character on Tiamat and oddly most of the names of other players I see are very EU sounding. So, for as long as they need to fix the NA/EU servers lets colonise a few JP servers! Colonisation is something us Europeans have been good at for centuries...

Sounds like XI with the Seekers of Adoulin expansion is the right game for you! ;p
