A European datacenter!

[Suellen]

I find this thread very interesting. I'm from US and I experience everything you guys are describing on a regular basis. I had just assumed the servers were in JP like how all the FFXI servers were in JP. To learn they are actually a lot closer to home is a bit shocking. I think there is more here going on in the network code than the unfortunate side effect of dealing with travel time latency.

Regardless, I really hope you guys are able to get servers closer to you. It should be standard practice for any online game these days.

Bump from south africa. an EU data center will be about 50-100ms less which will make a huge difference. Currently won't be able to move out Titan's spam ability even if i move the split second it appears.

Your server (Durandal) is based in Japan, so you are experiencing what we are.
