RE: Alternative NA RP Server Poll - Kilieit - 06-21-2017
SE were already warning us before the launch that they were expecting severe difficulties playing on overpopulated servers, and now there's confirmed to be an ongoing third-party attack on the NA servers as well. So yes, it's going to be very bad for the next week or maybe two.
The reason I'm advising you to wait is because it sounds like you fear potentially regretting a transfer, and as of right now, such a move would be irreversible - in other words, a permanent solution to a temporary problem.
Roll an alt on a lower-populated server for now if you really can't stand it, but don't make any permanent decisions until things have settled back in to the normal state of affairs.

I would advise making an alt or mirroring your characters, myself.
I actually had to move off Balmung with my main because by the time that my fiance and I got home it was almost 3 hours of queue time leaving us with maybe an hour to even play. I personally don't mind it because I already have a level 60 on Balmung. I moved my other to Mateus. I haven't regretted it as I can actually play and I really don't want to wait a month to play SB content.

I understand it's something I can't take back but the more I think on it the more I realize I have little connection to Balmung. The roleplaying community might be bursting at the seems with events and players but in all the time I've played I've made no true connection to any of it. All my fault in that regard I admit.
I consider this a fresh start in so many ways. I only regret having to once again sit through this 3000+ queue because I managed to DC while in an instance and that prevents transferring. Thanks for the advice guys but I'm pretty settled in this choice.

I jumped to Mateus just like I said I would. Shoot my whole FC transferred actually. We love the lack of que and the server is populated to where hunts and fates still get done and you see enough people in random areas to let you know there is a player base. Granted same server group so there was still duty finder issues and such but the game had enough to do outside of the DF.
RE: Alternative NA RP Server Poll - Dinah-mite! - 06-22-2017
I moved one of my characters to Mateus the 3 hour+ queues and my work schedule I was lucky to get an hour of playtime.Â
So far so good but too early to tell. I left my main on Balmung.
RE: Alternative NA RP Server Poll - Mercer - 06-22-2017
Apparently there has been some misinformation being spread around the last day or so. Free transfers are still going and as long as Mateus is labeled a prefered server, it's still free to transfer to from Balmung and Gilgamesh.Â
You can find current prefered servers here:
