Upgrading server equipment?

Any idea as to how it'll affect the game?

Possibly better graphics?
Less lag?
Character freezing on spells?
 
None of the above.
 
FFXI is a port of a port of a port. So upgrading server equipment wouldn't have anything to do with graphic or in game changes. They might be replacing run down servers they have ( computer equipment, not worlds) for safety reasons or need more space for other stuff.
 
The date was that they announced it today, sorry for the confusion.

And yeah, after I had logged in I mentioned it to my LS and I was corrected on which servers where being upgraded. I had over-read the page. My mistake.

all of these are system based. not server issues. char freezing on spells? sounds like driver issues

I heard from a LS member it's actually server side and they supposedly fixed it, though I got locked up today on cure IV.

Nah...characters get locked when cured while they're pulling out their weapon, etc. Its a very common issue. SE claimed they mitigated the problem, but there was no difference whatsoever.

Cure-locking has become a distant problem for me, but Haste locking, Refresh locking, and Regen locking are still a prominent issue on ol' Timmy W's game experience. Nice try SE, but you have only take care of 1/4 of the interruptions I have.
 
my bad, i thought he was referring to a char freezing during a spell and not fully showing its animation
