So I can't play and tell with EU/NA/JP friends in ARR...

Everything you said in that post is based on your misinterpretations of Google search results, and blatant ignorance on the matter. People shouldn't post about things they do not know anything about. In conclusion you are a liar liar, and your pants are obviously on fire.

LOL don't quit your day job kid. I'll take my hands on career experience over some troll on the internets.

Who the feck are you again?

EDIT: HK is my idol, so if you were trying to insult me, it didn't work. Troll harder.

Oh good grief. Bye now.

Why would a japanese person connect to a server located in north america? why would an american connect a japanese server? Derrrrdederrrdederrrr :P

Good lord. You sir, are an ass.

lol here's another way to put a hole in the magic machine argument. If you could just put a magic machine in every region that decreased latency, why would like, practically every other MMO known to man wast money on regional servers? Herp to the derp.

You know who calls people kids when they get frustrated? Kids. I'm 26 for the record.

I'm sorry mijin but isn't all your claims just wiki search? I just want to hear something from devs about this soonish.

Google search in general, and a whole lot of common sense. Wiki is just usually the first URL on the search results. You guys should try to verify some of your random claims sometime with a simple internet search to see if it's true or not before you post.

Rocket scientist/Brain Surgeon here. True story. Data centers are facilities used to house servers. What you are suggesting is technologically impossible. Using this theoretical mystery device that you suggest exists, there would be just as many hops from the client side to the magic machine, and then from the magic machine to the servers in Japan. Unless SE is going to lay a direct line from their servers to the american west coast via the bottom of the pacific ocean, and those kind of things can get pretty costly.

All of that aside, the actual words from Yoshida's mouth were:



Servers based on region sound pretty clear to me. Even if what you're suggesting was possible, why would players have to choose their region? It would be unnecessary. Replace the word "server" with "magic machine," and why would players need to choose it?

Lol. This is pretty funny. Never seen someone argue with a Network Engineer (read: the masters of data-flow) before.

What a brave soul.

but... you just said the other guy just made claims using google search when you are doing the same thing. Being a bit hypocritical no?

Yea pretty much. Also the article he linked in reply to me was regarding latency from Europe to Asia, which doesn't even compare to what I was talking about, which was latency from the US to Asia. The issue with Europe to Asia is distinctly different, yet he acts that I'm implying SE has to lay undersea cables LOL. Go Go reading comprehension right? Thats why its called a leased line circuit. The herpa derp is on him.

The fact that you claim its not 'technologically possible' just displays your blatant ignorance on the matter. People shouldn't post about things they do not know.

I gave up with him already :/ People not having a clue about network architecture, peering agreements and so on, commenting on these threads makes me sick as well.

Glad I'm not the only one.
