I'd love it if they allowed free transfers to the new servers, and made a new server that 1.0 characters could move to as well. At this rate it looks like I'll be paying for a transfer to a JP Legacy server if I want to play somewhere less packed. One thing nice about sharing servers internationally was that you could fit more people on them, 'cause they logged in at different times.

I am curious how many more people they could allow to log in by increasing capacity. Whenever I've been able to get onto my server it has been packed, players everywhere! It isn't overcrowded, per se, but if they allowed even more people logged in at once, it would be. In cities especially.

Of course, players will be more spread out as time passes, so I hope that helps. But it can only help so much, particularly in regards to cities.
