Yea i dont get why people are raging on Elcyco, yea yea, you can probably que up the line "first world problem" in his particular case, but having servers spread east and west coast benefits everybody and disadvantages none cept maybe SOE...but we're paying them.

You are aware your speaking to the wrong person, every aussie would prefer split east and west coast servers meaning you also could get that better ping, because playing with 100 ping would mean, THINGS ARE SPIRALING OUT OF CONTROL IN THE UNPLAYABLE TERRIBLE LAG.

I played on werner, but moved to emerald mainly to escape the constant plasma spam and (usually) higher populations . Since I often work until 9/10pm in UK , things were dying off in europe ,and east coast US its like dinner time and things are just kicking off.
Not sure if it will be so good if Im forced to play on ''Markov'' all the time. Occasionally people may warp (to me) that I could put down to ping. On flip side I used to occasionally be sent tells that I was warping on their screens and be accused as hacking when on my screen it would be normal. Will euro players be forced to play on euro server this time? would break up some good outfits . |

Not splitting the servers up is also better for international clans. No east-west debate where the Euros and the Aussies fight it out over which one is more important for the clan. One server location, one choice. Simple. Maybe not awesome for everyone but Awesome for everyone was never an option to begin with for an international clan. If there's one server location things get a lot easier. Sucks for you maybe if your clan has no aussies, but they aren't catering the server location for your clan's sole benefit. Many clans have aussies and Euros alike, such as The Enclave. I like the prospect of something in the middle so it's reasonable for everyone in the outfit. It's fair. Most of the people happy most of the time. That's the best they can do. |

If we're trying to be as fair as possible we should put it in a shack in Siberia so we're all screwed. If SOE is hosting the servers in San Diego they are doing so for reasons which are deeper than trying to piss you off. My money is on money. |

But in most situations you'll find the CSHD kicks in. You don't have to factor in lead time because your ping. Before you bitch ... play it and see. Then again people will still blame being crap on ping even if it isn't the real issue. |

What you Yanks fail to realize is that most modern games are Peer 2 Peer. Where playing a game competitively, Your ping makes a huge difference and gives you a much better advantage over someone with a much higher Ping than yourself.
Planetside 2, will be like planetside 1. Hosted on dedicated servers. So in a nutshell if your getting 150/200 ping it wont make that much of a difference fighting someone with a 20ms. I play planetside 1 now with 200/250Ping and honestly i wouldn't see any difference if it was 30. And anyone that tells you differently is an idiot and is just using there ping as an excuse for there aim. Have a read through the wiki on game servers. And stop the crying please. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Game_server

____ Anyway, the foreseeable issues i see with playing with a high ping is: > Dying around corners more often, this goes both ways BTW playing against people with a high ping will mean you die around corners because on their screen you died in LOS, your 5ms ping will do you no good here if somebody else has 300. > Increased delay on activation of things, while i expect most things to be still predicted, if your medpack or shield packet hasn't got to the server before somebodys kill packet, you dead, you just don't know it yet. > increased Bullshit, ever had it where somebody is facing another direction but they're hitting you? this is because on of you has a high ping. > increased TTK, typically a target wont appear dead on your screen until you get confirmation from the server a target is dead. so alot of the time you will waste those few vital miliseconds shooting at something that is effectively already dead. Also i wont be the one crying when im killed because of lag, you will be the ones(again) crying at me because i killed you around corners or you effectively saw yourself gibed because my packets arrived at once. You might not see yourself as dead before you can react, but thing is, you just don't know you're dead yet. I'm simply trying to save your tears here people, help me help you. |

Aussies can play on the NA servers. Seems plausible that the servers will be in San Diego or thereabouts, which won't be terrible for Aussies. Even if its in the midwest it's nbd. No worse than the Euros. I found it intersting that in Seattle I got the same ping to Berlin as I did Sydney, so even if its on the west coast it doesn't seem like Euros will have any worse pings than the Aussies. So perhaps West coast is actually the most balanced place to be.
