Keed Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 Hello tennos, I'm surprised there is still no Asia region(s) proposed. As compared to the American continent, the granularity is, least to say, very poor. I understand that more regions means more fragmentation of the player pool but on the other hand playing laggy missions also means furstrated player now playing solo most of the time .... I'm no expert so I'm not gonna state whether we need North Asia, South Asia, West Asia and East Asia. This however sounds a bit overkill :) I suppose that the devs have all the statistics needed to analyze where the (1+million, grats) players are playing from. I encourage players from Asia to vote for this post, reply to this topic to give it visiblity from the devs and make proposals as to the region segmentation.

fuiseh Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 (edited) I'm all in, I've been playing so many laggy missions that I've gotten used to them to the point where I can really contribute! Its never really fun though, and can get really frustrating esp when it comes to chat. I don't think an Asia server is coming anytime soon, but it won't hurt to be heard :) Edited April 23, 2013 by fuiseh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shion963 Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 An asian regions matchmaking would reduce lag in a way, I see no reason not to do it. At least we won't get paired with someone who has slow internet AND is halfway around the world, to boot! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaftronics Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 A discussion about this appeared in council chat with DE_Steve earlier. They're not adverse in looking into it, but not all parts of Asia have good internet. I would say they're definitely aware of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zekarus Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 South-East Asia and the mainland East Asia should be good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tulzscha Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 +1 for an Asia server - I'm from SEA, Philippines. I get okay performance on the Oceania server in 2-3 player games, but 4 players is a lagfest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matrixEXO Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 (edited) I would like to actually say no. I'm a Malaysian and the trouble about games is that, YOU DON'T GET MANY PEOPLE WHEN YOU EXPAND THE SERVER REGIONS! (Not sure how to Bold a word in this forum, seems strange. Gonna caps it instead.) I know because I have played some games with multi-region servers and fairly few people playing in the Asia servers compared to the US or EU. Kill me if you want but I just don't agree on it. Rather play on the Oceania servers since it's better than the US AND you do get a decent number of people there (compared to the US, which is a lot).

Shaftronics Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 I do agree with the above poster, though. It was another point that was made during tbe discussion as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doublehell Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 Asia needs a region of it's own. Most players from that region seem to think the Oceania region (NZ and Aus) is best for them, but that couldn't be further from the truth. Most routes will go via the US West coast, which leads to shocking lag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madotsuki Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 If Asia gets its own region, i might not have to solo every time anymore :o I'm all for it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xStonedRaveNx Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 doesn't really work too well. how oceania has lumped most of AU/NZ and the entire SEA region together. Connection issues notwithstanding, DE needs to give players options on preferred host during a game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
