    Content Finder is good, but that isn't what I am concern about, that is just a tool to find me a Party, i'm talking about something entirely different thing.

    OH GOD WHY CAN'T SE MAKE IT ONE SERVER ONRY AND MAKE IT PHASING!

    If I'm reading those comments correctly those look like some very relevant points to bring up. I would absolutely consider it something that SE needs to discuss further with the community to explain the direction they are taking things.

    Idn.. I just feel that perhaps were reading what they said like reading a book upside down, everyone's understanding of what is said is mixed, 1 person says this, another person says that, another person agrees with that person etc etc. I think someone needs to sit down and sort out what is said word for word, and give a detailed analysis.

    I feel most people just skimmed Bayohne's post, and came to like 5 different conclusion, when their is clearly only 1. and these are Servers were talking about ( Computer related stuff that I'm sure 3/4ths of the people here don't really know, they just making up stuff in their heads to make a conclusion).

    Anyways, bottom line is either we need a "Simplified" post from a Dev ( would like this more than anything else), or someone that actually knows about servers to break down what was exactly said on that post. So we can condense these 5+ conclusions ( just making a number randomly :P) into just 1 actual "true" conclusion.

    Devs, please make a more simplified version of what you posted so we can have a more "clear" understanding what your intentions are. =).

    You can't have low latency when you have people from all over the world.

    You mean you can't have low lag without an actual half-way decent server architecture.

    EVE Online has players all over the world, US, UK, EU, Russia, Australia, Japan etc, with the server cluster in UK, yet I've never heard anyone complain about lag caused by geographic distance from the server in over 7 years of playing.

    EVE is also a very different kind of game. It's much, much slower and you don't (can't) actively control your ship (WASD). The fact that CCP was able to dilate time in high-pop/heavy-combat sectors without breaking the game or causing its playerbase to cry Bloody Mary is proof enough.

    Apples and oranges. One is an action MMO, the other is Spreadsheets in Space.

    I can see how the inclusion of regional data servers can present a problem. Let's say we have Person A (US), Person B (EU), and Person C (JP) who are all friends. You all get together and decide to gather at one of the US servers. Problem solved, right? In some cases that may be all there is to it, but for many cases it will be more complicated than that. Let's say Person C is also friends with Person D and Person E who are also residents of Japan. Okay, Person C talks with each of them and convinces both to come to the US server, but what about Person E's EU friend? I think you can see where I'm going with this. It basically comes down to two choices:

    1. Gather all your friends and each of their groups of friends until you can all get together and decide on a server to join.
    2. Be split up from your friends one way or another.

    Sure, Person A may be able to get all their friends to join the same server, but it can't be guaranteed that each of those friends will get to be with their own groups. Not everyone has such a complex circle of friends, but there will be those who are affected.

    Personally I feel inclined to say that sticking with friends is more important than reducing lag/latency.

    I see a few comments here and there saying there should be an alternative infrastructure solution. Can't say it would be something I'm familiar with, but I would be interested in knowing whether it's something SE could pursue.
