Why were the servers moved to the west coast?

Post by Xeroxemnas » #495228

Read thread title. Why was this done without any input whatsoever? Game is a fucking slideshow now for most people. Who was this supposed to appease? Goofball?

If it's any benefit to you, I live in California and I suffer from the lag-spikes from hell when everyone else does as well.

It's not the spot the servers are in.

It's the servers themselves, probably from Denial of Service. That's what the assumption is at least.

The servers were moved specifically to fuck you over because we hate you.

>implying players input would actually mean anything regarding this. Its a host decision, so it doesn’t really concern us. Unless you’re paying for the servers that is. My ping is worse now too, but its not that bad. 70 feels the same as 30.

What's the point of crowdfunding if the host is just gonna do whatever the fuck he wants anyway?

if you live on the east side of the country you should be keenly aware that 80% of it is a shithole

It's not really just people on the East coast it effects too, there's a lot of people in Europe that play on American servers, you'd be screwing them over too. On East coast, in general, it's closer to more people.

Oh so this is why I lag out like crazy on Basil and Sybil now? I was so confused since I started playing not too long ago and then from one moment to the next it got so bad. I'm from Europe so now I just mostly stick to Terry and the Events Hall, but since Kilostation only got tested on Sybil that made me a little sad.
