@Johnmacdad Amsterdam. That's where a lot of EU online games are based because it's very central and has amazing net connectivity.

Awesome I live in Holland so I should have awesome ping.

Yay im extremely happy with that, for some reason I have a better ping to holland than i do to uk (from ireland). Meh although to be honest anywhere would do me, not like i suffer from high pings on european servers

Playing on US servers isn't the problem, you will be able to play on any server anyway.

The issue is having to go through pro7 if your in the EU. What I want to know is, do I need to use a US vpn to play if I want to keep my SOE account? Or is your location only checked when you create the account?

i am just not all that worried somehow

The only problem I have with this argument is that of the 40ish European countries only three are Germanic, half is Eastern Europe (which they still won't have proper access to) and the other half of the Western civilization has barely anything to do with Pro7.

Of course the German speaking market is nice and big with around 70-80 million people living in Germanic regions, but, the remainder is bigger.

DCUO Europe is full of germans who chat over global in german. World of tanks is worse though, mostly Polish! At least I can chat with Germans. Unfortunately can't call their football inferior anymore. :'(

Yeah, they tend to do that. Always kinda embarasses me.

But unlike WoT we will be able to mostly play with our outfit quite easily.And, errr Germany has always been amongst the best teams out there. A little rough but effective

Only after you started playing dutch.

There was a lot of trauma caused in the netherlands first by Bayern, of all teams, making dutch people realise they rooted for the Gerries against Chelsea. Then the national team was one of the only attacking teams left. Simply mindboggling!

Let's hope you return to old school schwalbes so we can return to our Lothar Mattheus syndrome!
