DISGUSTING BANDWIDTH DURING PEAK JAPANESE PLAYTIME

[Blu]

This is the reasoning that I used behind this.

I'm assuming SE has it set up where there is a database hosted in several parts of the world.

I have heard from several in game players that there is only 1 server, and that's in Japan. And that SE is going to place 0 servers anywhere else in the world. Therefore there are no NA EN or US servers.


Pushing NM or mob stuff aside, the lag spikes i get from 5pm JST to 01:00 JST the following morning occur any time a simple act is taking place: synthing, logging, mining, fishing. Lag spikes range from a few seconds to MINUTES!

MS from US and Japan is like 200ms. I totally doubt they have 1 single server. That would be like 400ms just to see a mob pop, and another 400 ms to hit it. If that was the case, they would have to intentionally LAG anyone with a lower MS so that everyone's MS was essentially 200 ms.

They have only one server cluster and no current plans to split it. End of story.

As far as the lag spikes during JP prime time go, I don't get any.
