there was a statement in one of the "Ask the Devs" on that topic.

Q: Is there any plans to locate servers anywhere but USA? [Vovochka404]
A: Yes, but I can't say when (because I have no idea.) Suffice to say we're planning on it. [Garth]

Hopefully he'll consider this thread his quarterly reminder that 200+ pings suck balls for everyone concerned.

Here is some more important info:

...Also, when servers are setup in your region, you will be given a onetime opportunity to transfer to those region’s servers taking everything you own with you...

Promise servers in June.

Admit you have no idea what you're doing about servers, if anything, in September.


Thanks for the links but as with everything MWO I'll believe it when I see it, not when someone blogs about it...

I said back in June that I wouldn't pay a penny until there were EU servers and I haven't. I'm very eager to pay the moment they do get them though.

Maybe it's just the time of day when I usually play, but when I jump into a match I see roughly 1-3 players with sub 100ms ping, 1-3 with over 200ms ping and the rest 100-200. Which leads me to think the playerbase is certainly there for an EU server.

NA based players can still be playing with 100-200 pings you know.

my experience of this game and others is that I get a 110ms ping to canada, and about the same to servers in say, germany... so for me there would be no real added benefit to euro servers

this, most of my group mates are somewhere in NA and have very similar pings to me most of the time

Surely if all you NA are getting crap pings then there's more reason for EU servers so at least WE can have decent connections
