With the imminent arrival of Final Fantasy XIV‘s next expansion, Dawntrail, fans are eager to jump into the new content and explore every detail of it. Raiding groups look forward to their next challenges, but the developers’ current congestion mitigation plan could cause issues.
In the lead-up to Dawntrail‘s early access launch on June 28, the Final Fantasy XIV team shared its plan to assist with keeping the login queues to a minimum. There will be a restriction on Data Center Travel until Patch 7.01, or 7.05 at the latest, depending on how the overall queues and servers struggle with players attempting to play the game. For those who regularly travel Data Centers to play with friends, it could prevent many from enjoying the next expansion together, and raiders believe this could cause issues when they attempt the new Savage encounters.
