    You're recommended to use the data centre geographically closest to where you play. That makes the JP data centres home to English-speaking players from Australia, New Zealand and a number of Asian countries.

    I'm not here because it's superior or something. It's just where I was told to go.

    And I am speaking from observation. People converge on the flag locations and fight over them. Matches are won and lost over who picks up the S-rank flag late in the game.

    Maybe they aren't doing that over on whatever server the OP plays, because they're making it sound like they just get ignored and people need to be prompted to engage in that part of the game. Maybe it's the difference between how JP players behave (and thus what the devs would see players doing if they play the game themselves) versus how US players behave. Maybe if I went over to one of the other JP servers it would be different again.

    So. I specify which DC I'm on and where it is, if that seems relevant to what I'm talking about - if it's about how players behave or interact with the game, because the population is clearly different, both in behaviour and sheer numbers, and things that people talk about as issues on the US forum don't seem to be issues here to the same degree. So I'm coming from a different perspective, and want to make that clear if it's relevant.

    I don't know, I personally want to smash my head into the wall on Primal whenever I see people gave up a perfect flank opportunity for a useless node when the target GC only need 100 more points to win. I don't understand their logic.

    It is like people can't read the score. "Pull back get the S rank" First place team needs 100 points to win. If everyone pushes in and respawns get nodes you can still win. Also need to be smart enough to facilitate the double team instead of the sandwich, since the other team also seems to have trouble looking at the score as well.

    The objective is to win by getting to 1600 points first. You get points by killing other players. It's part of the objective. In all FL modes. But there are times to retreat, yes. Do the killing smarter than the other teams.

    Also part of the objective: Not letting yourself get killed, as your team lose points.

    Probably comes from most people not fully grasping how the game mode works, I'd wager. I also heard there's PVP Discord where they try to organize some groups to go do it. I'm not in the Discord, and a lot of the time it seems like everybody on my team got some memo in voice chat about what we're doing strategically, no info comes in on Alliance or Party chat, and then suddenly I'm alone if I take my eyes off the minimap for more than 20 seconds lol.
