Audience Question:
Is there anything Square Enix can do to fix the lag between the servers in Japan and the North American players?
Our technical team has done comprehensive network testing to verify network hops as well as extensive ISP testing. We have data that confirms that there is no difference in lag between players in North America and Japan.

. . . hahaha . . .

I mean why not just say "no plans at this time". Kinda interesting. Even though PS3 is like 1.5 years away and I cant see me playing FFXI then haha.

Vault Question:
Will there be region specific servers? (EU, NA, JP, etc...)
We have no plans to create region-specific servers.

The reasoning behind our decision is that FFXI is a cross-platform, or rather an open platform architecture where content is provided to the users without boundaries making it possible to reach a community on a global scale.

From a service provider perspective, being able to deliver content globally, we can take advantage of the different time zones and reduce data center costs. This also allows the servers (game worlds) to be continuously populated by players around the clock. As a result, we can provide an extremely high level of service at a lower cost.

The auction house service has advantages where the in-game economy overcomes the language barrier and creates a thriving economy 24 hours a day.


This is a good reason behind not having a strictly NA/EU/JPN server, but they need to publicly post that region does not affect your latency within the game, because i find it hard to believe that a person on a different continent is recieving the same latency as another continent...

Good article, be nice to have a Mog House Party!
