Hi all

I didnt know where to put this topic so this is where it lands. Im an EU player and Im dying to hear if Im the only one or there are more of them. And if they have the same problems with high lag and package loss that makes contest like the weekends impossible to contest in.

Am I alone to wish for a EU server for obvious reasons like the players are within approximatly the same timezone and less lag issues. No offence to the community as I do like to battle with people for all over, but the problems are killing me (litterally in the game)

I play from the UK, and have a ping below 100 between 80-90, the only problems are game engine inherent ones and terrible coding.
And EU servers won't fix that, what they will do is fragment a small playerbase...it takes long enough to find matches as it is.

my standard ping is 100-120. I do notice significant latency when shooting people - exacerbated by poor netcode. Often i hit light mechs on my screen (explosions on them) and register no damage. I also miss people entirely and get rewarded with damage on them: Feels a little unrewarding at times.

What about AU players, 250 ping.

I have the same stable +/- 150 ping as always, and it didn`t stop me from being 10th place in the assault class for a while before bed (currently 19th but I`ll work on that later) ... So I can`t agree that it`s a hindrance in the tournament.

Again, I experience little to no lag, but I would still like to see an EU server someday...

Bulshit bad coding. I play from Melbourne with a 250 ping and rarely have issues. The code is pretty dam good.

High ping player enjoying HSR, surprising.

Not.

I'm pretty sure PGI promised european servers long ago. Something about founders inquiring about if there would be any or not, to which they said "Yes, of course! We don't plan to disappoint you!"

I guess PGI failed in that respect aswell. Good going.

I play on 250 ping and shots that had clearly missed me thanks to my dodging, still manages to damage me.

It sucks for sure.

I have two members in my unit from Europe, one is Germany and the other is swiss, they are both consistently under 100 ping
