Asian Servers are needed.

[Markness]

No, "Asia Pacific" is not Asia, having servers in Sydney, AUSTRALIA (a completely different continent and calling it "Asia") is really stupid. Add servers to the most populated region in the world already. No one can play this game with 200+ ping.

I refunded the game already but have my steam balance ready for whenever (if ever) they decide to add servers to the Asian region.

Edit: Buyers remorse. Friends forced me to buy it and we put up with the queues, after finally login into US West I can play with 200+ ping, it makes it unplayable as a caster, and janky as melee. PVP is impossible because everyone is where they shouldn't be.

Edit Two: Game is released and still no asian servers, if you're reading this and are curious whether to buy it or not then I highly recommend not to buy it until they release asian servers, this game is unplayable with over 200 ping.

I very much hope that the official will increase the Asian server, but I feel they will not

Add servers already, what do we have to do to get this done, a petition? If that's the case then add a "+1" in here to show that they're needed.

As if most of asia doesnt already live in australia

Aussie Server is not an Asian server. Many Chinese players still have a delay of 180+ when connecting to Aussie Server. According to my connection, Amazon has its own servers in Hong Kong, China and other places. If the official can open this part, I believe it can solve this problem

Correct. Australia as a whole belongs to Oceania, and he is not close to other Asian countries. It can also be seen from the official options that the Australian server is called "Southeast Asia", not "Asia"

yeah, I play from Thailand in of of the AP servers. 190+ ping all the time. its ok for PVE, but I loose almost every PVP fight.

I cant believe there is no announcement about opening Asian server. From what I see, these generations are super cyber sport oriented in here, every boy and girl play a variety of games. It is the most populated part of the world and I cant believe they dont put servers against our region.

-Can I play the game if I live outside the United States? Will there be servers in Latin America/Europe/ASIA/etc?

We are working to determine where global servers should be for launch on August 31, 2021.

[Markness]

Yup, that is a very PR response there, not very helpful in terms of an actual answer. "Well I think that maybe yeah, maybe just maybe yeah, heh, it could be something we could consider, yeah!".. like it's a yes/no question and they answer it like that.

That does not change the fact that it is the SEA server location.

If there comes more location, only the future can tell, I reckon it depends on its success

Having servers located in a different continent and calling it 'asian' does not make it asian, dude. How nice would it be to have NA servers hosted in Brazil, or EU servers hosted in Qatar? Call it what you want to call it, but these are not asian servers. That's how far these servers are from us. 180+ ping in a PVP game is absolute BS, devs should remove it from the store if they aren't going to provide servers for us, it is pretty much pointless to play with how awful the ping is.

There are a long way from ie Scandinavia to Qatar. So that would make little sense. However we do have Scandinavians and Brites, that ie. could potentially join servers in Southeren Italy (not that it happens, since Netherlands, Denmark/Sweden, Germany, France and England often consist of the main European hubs, with sometimes a Spanish/Italian server.

However.

The Aussie server is a SEA server, becuase the main playerbase that actually pay a proper price, is well Aussies.. Chinese practially pay nothing to get the game, having a lot of servers there, would not benefit them atm.

Maybe in the future, again depends on the gain they get from it. If you all buy and play the game, despite the SEA server being in Australia, then why should they change it ? since you already bought the game (its B2P after all)

Disagree 100 percent. Price localization means nothing. If you have 1000 people paying 10 bucks or 100 paying 40 then the ones paying only 10 are still making you more money. You're arguing against them adding servers to a region that is lacking them, which to me is quite baffling. The technicalities on how they name their servers makes no difference, they don't have servers in Asia. If you're in northern Europe playing on southern European servers you will still be getting half the ping that we're getting playing on OCE servers.
