Which server will you go?

KesTro · 2012-11-18, 03:51 PM

Perhaps there's a thread floating around somewhere that's like this but I could not find it. Then again I'm prone to momentary lapses of blindness. Anyhow..! During the beta I played on the US East server Lysi(something? Can't remember >>; ) And there were a couple of outfits I can recall in particular there that I enjoyed playing with on NC. Such as WMD, Renegades and Sunder Military Gaming.

I guess my question is does anyone know what servers majority of the outfits will be going? Not neccasarilly NC only, I'd like to know where everyone is thinking about calling their home.

I'm in Cali, in the LA area. I can't really get much more west coast. Unfortunately, East servers seem to be getting all of the attention, so I'm undecided. I might just have to accept a bit of lag to be a part of the planetside community at launch - we'll see though.

Yes haha, I'm West coast as well, directly above you in fact! I didn't notice much if any lag during the Beta on the east servers. Perhaps I got lucky? I did notice most of the outfits seemed to be flocking towards the East, of that people are speculating it's looking like Mattherson over Waterson. It would be nice to know in advance where everyone was planning on going so i don't end up blowing 50$ on a server and end up changing, hehe.

The Renegades are really waiting in the wings to see where the bulk of the NC veteran outfits go. We're leaning towards East Coast.

Supertroopers is also considering East Coast - Mattherson - and NCLynx stated that vets were chattering about this server.

Sturmgrenadiers, although just finishing closed beta on EC, are undecided.

Devil Dogs are saying they're going to Connery on the WC.

Blue Lions stated they are/might switch back to EC.

The East Coast servers were horrible in the first half of beta, and now they work great. On the last day of beta, we played on Thebe and the lag for us was bad. We're hoping that was just because of the intense amount of people on the server, although there was no queue.

Anyone know the precise locations of the regional servers?

I'm glad to hear you haven't run into much lag. That is really reassuring. Also, I'm guessing the leaderboard, when it goes live, will list which outfits are on which server. I'll have a couple months before I get home so I'll be watching carefully

Archangels are going Waterson. None of this indecisive i'll wait and see what everyone else picks BS !

Dkamanus · 2012-11-18, 06:17 PM

I'm kinda wanting to know WHICH East server is going to be the competitive one.

Snipefrag · 2012-11-18, 06:19 PM

The servers are what we make them, let the chips fall where they may. Attempting to guess is going to be a waste of time.

Now, just out of curiosity, what happens when the lists get published, and everyone flocks to one server? Assuming the population cap is reached, I see there being a problem with outfits being split up with mobs of angry gamers.
