Move the servers back?

[Darrcyphfeid]

I know some players are adamant that it's an SE issue

I'm taking this out of context, but it's an SE issue insofar that SE doesn't want to invest in multiple server locations.

"Moving back" isn't so much an issue as either putting the servers in a more central location (not ideal) or having them in multiple locations. Keeping the one in CA, for example, as well as getting one back in Montreal and doing the centralized location for good measure.

I don't want to hear that their infrastructure is horrible or that it'd be too hard to accomplish that. We all pay a monthly fee, ostensibly in part to maintain and/or facilitate the expansion of all this backend stuff, and if the game is larger than ever - their claim - then they need to actually loosen the purse strings a bit to ensure it stays that way.

Let's even be a little more crazy and ask that they throw our friends in South America and Australia a bone and find some local servers there, too. I'm sure it'll pay dividends when they launch their next MMO and these problems don't have to crop up again.

That's my dream.

And at Brazil there are pretty good datacenters. So good that Microsoft keeps all Azure servers at Sao Paulo. And that datacenter alone is enough to keep Azure services for the entire south America.

And it works for games? Yes, it works. Brazil have even a WoW server, with a full-translated content to portuguese. And the first server was opened 6 years ago.

Well... Everyone can dream...
