This would suck im guessing…not only would the lag be worse but the main forces wouldnt see each other due to time zones being 6 to 10 hrs apart

That’s why you do it in the weekend, so most people can stay up late.

I mean just imagine how many people would actually stay up for something this epic. I know my guildies would.

I think if they did wvw seasons or something it could be fun to see whose best but i think with time zones it might just turn into k-trains

Still though, the servers get laggy enough as it is, any big fights would be unplayable. Don’t get me wrong, the idea sounds fun, I just doubt it would work.

The should just merge NA and EU permanently. It would help with the 24 hour coverage imbalances.

And who’s servers should they use? Who gets stuck with the lag?

Although I don’t know if it is technically feasible (probably is) but I suggested that during NA hours they use NA servers and during EU they use EU servers. This would require a short reset a couple times a day to switch back and forth.

That way the only people hurt by latency issues are people playing in off hours in their time zones. There is no perfect solution so there is always someone that is going to experience degraded gameplay.

It wouldnt change the lag. Either you would be playing as someone with 300 ping or you would playing against someone with 300 ping. Either way, you got laggy gameplay.

I am not entirely against it, but its just going to be an awfull experience.

Yes however those with the lag with be a much smaller population. But we see people with bad pings now because they are playing out of their region or are living on some far away island. So we already experience the ‘bad’ gameplay to a small degree.

Much smaller? EU pop in US primetime perhaps, but EU primetime would be during the day/afternoon in the US, where I am guessing a sizeable amount plays, especially during weekends.

I think this would fit an EoTM style matchup instead where you can freely move between instances after joining (specify if the instance is native to EU or US, with respective players ending up in their area by default). At least then if the lag sucks you can just go try another instance.

I would love to fight EU guilds again, however the technical and timezone limitations of matching NA and EU servers would make this rather difficult. The better alternative is to have interested guilds from both EU and NA go into the same tier to fight each other, not quite as epic, but could still be fun.

You are probably right. Because Eu and Na times are close together it would likely have too much player overlap.

oh well.
