So Badlion, The NA servers are hosted on the East Coast, so dont you think that the West Coast should get some chance to? Like a CA server in the West, I'm not complaining about the lag or anything but sometimes I Wish I could have a bit of a better ping. I understand that there is a budget, but Badlion should consider this.

The pricing of OVH is a lot more affordable for us as well, as currently we are paying for our servers and then also paying a tremendous amount for protection. We have already done some testing the other day with our players and both the NA and EU players had a smoother gameplay experience even if their latency increased or decreased. EVERYONE, even the people who had higher ping, said the gameplay was smoother. This is going onto my next point with the obsession of ping when it comes to this game. This game is not like CS:GO. Ping does affect it slightly, but not to a ridiculous degree. Some of our best players have 100+ ping to the servers. I am also reminding players that the server and the client both run on a tick based system that is on 50ms intervals. That means if your packet gets to the server anywhere in that 50ms interval it is going to get processed at the same time. So if your ping is 20 or 30 it doesn't matter since it is the same 50ms interval. If your ping is 120 vs 60 that is where you will notice a bit of a difference. -MasterGBerry
