creaturemagic we don't really know what the global plans are for PS2. I would hope that it will be successful enough to have servers around the world. If not, hopefully the netcode is better and can handle lag a bit better as well.

PS handles ping fine, it does not handle packet loss well.

I think most of us love Aussies. But we also can enjoy poking fun at people...
Knew a guy from Australia in my first Planetside outfit, good memories

I'd be really suprised if the developers just shafted an entire market, so I'm not too worried. Either there'll be a server for us or the game will handle ping well enough for it to be no big deal.

Depends on how many there are, I guess and whether the Australian PS players would be a sufficiently significant demographic to ensure you had good pings.

Even an ultra-low-latency server to process all PS data requests, communicating with the main servers in the USA would be good.

you mean like the good folks at hi res, looking out for us with their terrible netcode and US servers?

Have you tried being about 20% less Australian?

I moved here from UK, so I played PS there and here and my play was barely changed at all, spent most of my time on East coast servers too so you'd think so, but PS handles high pings really well.

Packet loss however . . . but those days are fortunately rare.

If they region lock I'll be livid.
