Servers REALLY Fixed, When?
Let's be honest, the Alpha should be the ONLY Server with no ping over 100. There's the West Coast server for the Western N. America, Central American, S. America, Asia & Australia/Oceania; The UK Server for W. Europe, E. Europe, Middle East, Africa & Asia...why invest in the servers when they're not regulated? And when you mention this in game, people STILL say; "Where else am I supposed to play?" IN THE SERVER CLOSEST TO YOU, MAYBE? If the available servers are East N. America, West N. America & Europe...and you live in Polland, the server in East N. America is NOT closest to your general location. If you can't pick up on this common sense, than Strategy/FPS PROBABLY isn't for you, and you should go back to color by numbers #JustSaying. Something isn't right when....
It's frustrating because 6+ Months the Forums were FULL of individuals begging for an EU Server, offering out their first born child; It arrives and your still playing in the Alpha Server? Regulate the servers...or save your money and don't invest in the server. Save the expense in maintenance general server fees.

Yeah...It's a pain in the a** to be honest. I think the ONLY way to even things out is AUTO_Assigns; Upon login you're placed in the server nearest to you. A bunch of games have this. It matches your regional IP with the nearest server location...PotatoSalad wrote: »I dont know why they even added another UK server, no one plays in the main ones =/ -
That's sound alright for noobs...but what about players who want to mix with different people? isnt that the whole point of playing an online game?BobbyBlackk wrote: »Yeah...It's a pain in the a** to be honest.

Making u automatically log into the nearest server near u sounds good, but dont make it so u cant join another server-_-.
anyway what about the people who log on to a server and get 200+ping and this is the closet to their region?...people will be still complain about that.
But i like ur Autolog in to nearest server, tis a good idea:D -

ill just say taht the only reason forumers were whinning for a UK server was so that when they lose in CW they can go "play us in UK server and we'll kick your asses!"
i know what u mean though.
we got west coast (hardly used by the proper players)(i see more players go there for refuge than the actual people taht should be using it)
UK server which is HERE and yet you baby whinners STILL aren't using it.
i dont think the auto-assign would be good cause in all the servers other then west coast and UK i get the same ping. -
tbh when ever i been on the UK server's been full.
everytime im in it(whenever i decide to and idk why the hell i do) its empty.
it only has like a few peopel in each channel with every room full.
maybe im comming on at the wrong time? -
That would be the only draw-back on AUTO_Assign. Which I can understand...That sucks. I wouldn't be able to pub with my clan if this actually happened.
Q__________Q. Noes.
Yeah, maybe some sort of color or SOMETHING that sets each server apart. Maybe sub the server organizer; Noting the server location.And I kind of agree, it should at least let people know by highlighting servers in shiny gold, maybe that will make people go there instead.
WEST N. America- West Coast Server
- Alpha Server
- Bravo Server
- Charlie Server
- Delta Server
- Charlie Server
- Foxtrot Server

It really all depends on the times. Night/Evening in EST, CST, MST, PST the UK Server(s) are typically dry, but early morning to late afternoon they usually have some activity. -
ping cap everything to 20
haha...as nice as that would be to play, the company would go out of business EXTREMELY fast. The level of profit one needs to maintain a game of this stature is fairly high. Your looking at ≈140mi profit radius. It would take honestly, I'd say roughly ¾ the general population funding the game to keep it active.
As nice as it would be to play at such clean speeds...it's not profitable for the game. -
Bobby plz tell me you are not doing SnD now
Too bad you quoted my sarcasmBobbyBlackk wrote: »As nice as it would be to play at such clean speeds...it's not profitable for the game.
But seriously the problem of the game is not the ping, it's the damage registery.
In other FPS *cough* CS:S *cough* ping doesn't really matter, it's all server side, you are there you are shot you are dead w/e your ping/fps is. -
yessss, plz go to EU if ur lower there. SPOP, SCAR-L is uhhh, yah, anyways, i can deal with it, but 180ping is just rubbing it in.
1. PRESS 'TAB' on your keyboard
2. look at the NUMBER under STATUS
3. enter a game in UK and West Coast servers and repeat steps 1 and 2
4. fap at the server where ur ping (the number) is the lowest
5. ???
6. profit
