All of china is going to be hosted by a chinese company. They will have their own set of servers to play on, and will most likely be IP blocked from the NA/Euro/Japan servers.
HURRAH!

Was just looking at your Comp spec, do you have water cooling on an unclocked 2.8 I7 chip ??
crank that baby up
LOL!! So no Chinese gold farmers!!
Under Chinese law I dont think there is an option other than this. Same issue Bliz has with the Chinese market, they have to go through a Chinese company to host thier game there as well.

Yea , and before people start talking nonsence about SE, is becouse chinese laws with online gaming , not a se decision.
Im actually happy we wont have chinese rmt on there.
Say hello to all the NA/EU/JP RMT.
Could this be one of the reasons SE implemented surplus? To comply with Chinese views on MMORPG'ing, to make sure FF XIV would be ready from day 1 to be sold in China? (arguably one of the biggest MMO markets in the world)
Just a thought... Dunno.
Since most people assume SE is a bunch of idiot Japanese who don't know shit and need to get with the times.
This would be immensely gratifying if true. I would laugh my way all the way into the New Year.
You wanted my time, so I played you. You wanted my money, I forked it over. You wanted my soul, I gave it willingly. Not to complain... but when do I get my end of the deal? And no, I don't want your flippin' carrot. If you can't do that give me back my youth and keep the change. Why don't you try chasing your own damn carrot for a change? I'll gladly hold the stick.
Glad to hear we've a reason to be glad of China outside of racism or dislike of communism.
Alas, the Chinese gold farmer will likely be accessing Final Fantasy XIV illegally through proxy servers or something.
Guessthe only thing that helps against goldfarmer is to actually keep the price fpor the game high and ban all that use tehse services or well are goldfamers.
As soon as a buisness model does not pay out it normally gets tossed.
you know its a myth that all rmt is from china, alot of it is lazy people in the united states. they say theyre selling rmt, people put in cc numbers to buy and whammo they steal your cc and charge off extra accounts, you buy powerlevel and they take the account.
the chinese rmt when they did have some running in past games, actually sold cheap currency. but people from non 3rd world nations jumped right on the bandwagon and have been robbing suckers that dont follow the games rules blind for years now. do you really think the guy selling you 1 million whatevers in game for 50 real dollars is not going to rob you if he can?
It’s funny but that’s how I payed for FFXI for over 8 years not to mention buying the expansions. I miss those days of rusty cap and moat fishing.lol
Don't worry though the Chinese RMT will be around like they always are. They have their ways and work arounds, plus they will be scamming and hacking accounts.
I know due to laws over in china the players wont be playing with the rest of the world. but comeon lets stop this crap about chinese gold farmers. Its just outright ignorant to shoot out at 1 race on rmt. funny that the biggest rmt companies are american. so yeah rmt will show up and there is no escape from it.
wows chinese playerbase is seperate from the rest and that has not detered rmt. so lets all stop this ignorance of shooting down one race due to some media that aimed to explain rmt more.
I always feel bad for the Chinese. =(
