but you never know, this is F2P and will attract alot of people...and australia isn't in a recession, we're willing to pay more

This is true. I am expecting my ping to have improved somewhat as I am now on ADSL 2 and I was only on normal ADSL, (ADSL 2 is faster...a bit...) when I was playing Planetside.

I get 100 ping to gemini with no loss from the north of England.

I hope one of the euro servers is located in London or at worse Amsterdam, but with this German company deal that SOE have signed i fear it will be German based server so i would see 85+ ping most likely.

If right now you were playing a US version of a game like DC Universe Online you would connect to our servers in Las Vegas. If you were playing a European client you would connect with ones in New Amsterdam. If were launching tomorrow this would likely be the case. I of course cannot guarantee what happens down the road.

No sure on what time line you live but "New Amsterdam/York" is on the East coast

Guess you mean just Amsterdam

Not sure though, it looks weird.

i also would like an aussie server but as everyone has said i doubt it will happen

although markov pings wasnt too bad - something like that would be ok i guess

Vegas.. strange place for a datacenter.

All packet loss can be written off with the saying "What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas."

OH GOD 100% PACKET LOSS INC!

Confirmed!

Game launching tomorrow with Vegas server!

I hope the Trains will be ready in-game too.

Would be amsterdam still be viable for europe, or its now under pro7 and it will be in germany?

Why? there is a huge cross continental pipe that goes through vegas. There are quite a few hosting centers there.

Expensive and hot.

I'd like to see some East coast servers like in Atlanta. That would be nice.
