I dont care bout new servers

[fiendster]

Are they going to alleviate the congestion for full servers, they keep mentioning duty finder, is that going to effect the login issues?

please read this sticky its all explaind in there http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...s-Restrictions

So it seems they are not expanded or fixing the current full servers but opening and closing the flood gates during certain times.

they are adding new servers, the current ones work yust fine. cannot really say what influence it will have on the current full worlds. and yes they are monitoring login/restricting them to make sure the servers dont crash

So in other words... nothing is changing. They're just opening slots for more new subbers, but continuing to offer substandard service to those who have already paid up.

GREAT!

Here is a better quote for you. All worlds are comprised of many servers. They are adding servers AND worlds AND optimizing the entire thing:

. "Our server team is working around the clock to fix the issues," said Yoshida. "We are working on an update to distribute the server load that will go live on Wednesday [Sept. 4th] that will clear everything up. Then we'll be ready to take the next step with our fans."

LOL opening new servers and changing the duty finder.... But screw those full servers, they'll have to buy server transfers to not experience 1017 on a daily basis.


SE is missing the point with this upgrade and it will become glaringly obvious on Wednesday.

Server capacity is the problem and new worlds are not the solution unless they are capable of offering free, fast transfer to new servers. They are not, so this is going to do little to nothing.

So basically, people on full servers have a extremely high chance of getting the dreaded error 1017 after this half a day maintenance?

I can't imagine they would take the game down for ten hours and not fix the issues. I don't know exactly what they're doing but I imagine the whole purpose of this maintenance is to solve that issue.
