Guild Wars 2

Hi, I have played this game in Europe server for a few months from Oceania and I must honestly say that the connection is fairly poor from here ( 450 ping on average, 300 at best, 1k at worst ). And based on my research, the ping from NA server is only slightly better at 350 on average. Many of my fellow Oceanics do not play the game mainly because of this reason.

So I think it would be really great if NC soft can consider setting up a new server in Oceania. This server will not only help Oceanic players, but also for many many players from 11 SEA countries who can’t speak Chinese or Korean to enjoy the game a lot more. I believe it in long term, the server will be beneficial for this game as well as NC soft’s future online games to get a solid foothold in Oceanic and SEA markets.

meh, i don’t find that it changes all that much outside of pvp.

I’m an Aussie player, and i think the main reason why most people don’t play this game is because its not really that well known here, the “game scene” here is mostly dominated by League of legends and console games.

That aside, there are still plenty of Aussie players, they are just spread out over all the servers.

You must have really good internet or too used to the 400 ping. But for me it’s normally unplayable during peak time and very hard to do anything useful in WvW fights, since all my skills take a sec to respond and laggy as hell. It’s no different from playing with a handicap and create a major disadvantage for Oceania and SEA players who don’t have monster internet in both PvE and PvP

i have horrible internet(bloody Perth) and im fine in wvw+pvp

i think you might need to look at better internet, as the issue seems to be on your end
