UK player here! I also had concerns over time zones but will go with Balmung since that seems to be where everyone is going.

Mycroft · **06-25-2013, 12:20 PM**

I am a CET resident, and will likely have a character on Balmung, just to keep in touch with the primary RP community, but otherwise I'll hop around on Hyperion.

I'm Eastern timezone but I'm usually up till like 3 or 4'o clock in the morning on some days. I'm usually up till 3:30 on the weekdays though, unless I have a massive headache or I'm getting really sleepy. On Saturday I'm mostly up until 4. I used to be up till 5 but I'm kind of tired of seeing Inuyasha repeats now. XS

I use to live in Germany but I now live in the eastern timezone. I like to practice insomnia most nights so I am rarely asleep before 0200 and am often awake until 0600 EST. If you ever want to RP feel free to hit me up. I'm always looking for yummy RPs Big Grin

A lot of the EU folks are acctually going to Balmung then, huh...

Might have to change that on my guilds setting then. *makes a little note for later*

Hi! I'm zikh!

I have a few threads going in the welcome area and Linkshell area recruiting for the Night Shift! Come check our threads out and contribute!

We'll get more active closer to the game re-launch and start recruiting then. :3 As the founder I'm mostly up between 10PM local Mountain Time in the states here, and on well into the morning which is right around afternoon and evening for your fellows across the pond.

(No Germans.)

(Okay Germans)

(But no Dutch)

(Okay Dutch...)

Lol, euro politics. ;D

Akki-Chan · **06-26-2013, 10:38 AM**

Okay then.. I just found out that Balmung is a legacy server... Sooo, allow me the innocent and maybe uninformed question..

What the acctual *beep*?

Why would you, as a new or non-legacy player, put yourself through the ordeal of joining a legacy server?

You're starting all new on a server crammed full with a max level characters who saw everything the old content has to offer.

Chance for new characters to make decent money with something that issn't already delivered by max level characters who have easy access to EVERYTHING - Zero.

Chance to purchase gear or other goods that aren't absurdely overpriced by said max level characters... Virtually zero, as well.

So, someone, please, elaborate for me why a new/non-legacy player would want to go through this madness.

Merri · **06-26-2013, 11:28 AM**

Players can make their own decisions on whether or not they wish to join a legacy server. I'm sure there will be EU communities on both, so there's no need to worry. Please remember to keep the discussion civil, though. This has been a hot button topic in the past.

It also might not really be appropriate for this thread, and should probably be redirected to one of the many threads already discussing the legacy/non-legacy servers.

The community, here I know there is going to be lots of RP. I'm not fussed about being max level with all the best gear I play for fun, As you said yourself "Old content" the world has been remade from scratch there is going to be lots of new stuff.

Â Again for the Gil I'm playing the game to have fun. It only takes 1 person to break an auction house look at what happened to guild wars 2 it was majorly abused before it got fixed Arena net never took the gold away from those people and that was on a new server and that was at launch the same thing can happen to any server.

Sometimes having an established economy can be a good thing sometimes it can be bad. So whilst some items can be overpriced some can be under priced by people trying to undercut each other trying to sell the same items to players.

Again if I go onto another server I have no idea what the community is going to be like, If there will be any Role play.

Note: This isn't a personal dig/grudge against you but merely my opinion as a new person starting FFXIV ARR and I respect what ever decision you make and hope you have a great time in the game! Thumbsup

Also as Meri said this isn't really the right place for this but I hope I gave some insight on why I am joining a legacy server.

Zikh · **06-28-2013, 03:17 AM**

They opened up character creation for legacy servers, so I'll be making my LS ready on Balmung.

Sure, it'll be filled with diverse amounts of players who've been around. But that means you won't get stuck on quests, there are others out there for help, the market will be plentiful, you'll never be left alone, and even if it's legacy, there are a lot of low level players to depend on.

So don't worry! There's no reason you need to be the biggest fish in the pond. Smile

Saying hello from the UK and as a newbie who isn't afraid of you big bad legacy players Big Grin

Â bring on the RP

M'risha · **06-29-2013, 07:16 PM**

Another EU here (Netherlands), and I'm also going to be making my home on the Balmung Server, I guess!
Have met some fun people there already during this beta.

I'll just have to remember not to be derpy and get the US version of the game, not the EU Moogle

That being said, I hope Yoshida keeps his promise and delivers a beautiful shiny RP tag.

I didn't think which version you had restricted your server choices. Â If it does looks like I won't be on Balmung after all..

Noelle · **06-30-2013, 06:10 AM**

Which version of the game you have doesn't effect which server choices you can make.

They have servers recommended for locations, but the choice is entirely yours as to where you play.

Yay Thank you, I thought that was how it worked but suddenly doubt was in my mind.
