So as many of u are aware I’m sure. Ff14 let you play for free till u reached a certain level… but that has ended. They say the servers are to busy and they had to end that due to server congestion levels……
Now I’m even more afraid for server congestion for Lost Ark!
This is the first time I have ever spent money in a game before it comes out. Normally I let the dust settle and pick a less congested server. This time I will be picking before 75% of the people join!
Every hyped games at launch will have some congestions, controlling the sudden large flow early on will prevent servers from crashing, like dealing with network DDOS attacks.
Hope that they can deal with the hyped volume at launch.
Since it is not a global launch, I think we might be in a better condition. Access is a little more restricted to regions and not everyone in the world.
Get ready boiiisss and girls.expect for the best, prepared for the worst…
At least for LA there will be many people who defending the queue with “This is free to play game” to kill the arguments.
Some ppl also said that LA is FF14 killer… LoL I l’ll say play both and enjoy both games. They are great in different ways
Another way to avoid some congestions is to find out which servers popular twitch streamers are going to and avoid them.
Their followers will cause login spikes and will more than likely cause some congestions.
This is because ff xiv is pretty much the most popular mmorpg right now and secondly they could not upgrade their servers because of covid issues such as lack of chipsets.
I kinda doubt that amazon will have server hardware issues.
This right here. Amazon had no issue opening a huge amount of new servers during the New World launch. That is the biggest plus with partnering with them; basically no worries when it comes to servers.
Now, customer service, tech support, those are the issues to worry about.
