Obviously a server you big brain. Not the checkmate you’re looking for since you’ve got a hard block of inability to figure out how instancing a server works. lmfao jfc
Pop quiz, how many servers are you connecting to when you login to wow or 14. Go!
Can’t do that! You’re no REAL Scotsman…
Oh wait.
What’s a real MMO? The trash Fallout 76 or the trash Anthem?
Or the meh Destiny 2?
Imagine not knowing what a server is in 2021.
It’s got a red icon and the little x. It’s something.
They stop character creation to keep the initial instance from lagging out/crashing, it has nothing to do with server capacity.

hasn’t happened in awhile but there used to be a server status for the ones that actually were completely full, i think it was Locked or something. balmung was usually the only server that was locked, except maybe gilgamesh. i don’t remember

I’m not trying to argue one way or another.
No new characters for my server!
They have been slowly increasing capacity over the years as the game has grown. They said they are spending millions doing it for this new surge as well and to prep for possible growth in Endwalker.
Which server? I can almost guarantee that it will open up late at night or early morning.
Oh I’m sure. Behemoth is my server btw.
Red Mage FTW!!
good, i’m sure they’re going to need it. nobody could forget raubahn savage when stormblood came out, that was a nightmare. that reminds me, i think i actually bought a tshirt of it
The status on character creation changes every three minutes. You can see it as it happens, one that didn’t allow new characters 10 minutes ago all of a sudden gets greenlit or vice versa.
All it is, is instance throttling and nothing to do with the total capacity of the server. In this case, data center, not the individual server/home world.
It is crazy how competitive we all get over our favorite products. I mean, we should be talking about Waffle superiority and here you all are talking about WoW vs FF14.
I’m disappoint!

I had to wait until 4am to create a character on Famfrit. Because it was full.
