Join us on Japanese servers

[Reika]

Just because you can create a character there doesn't mean it's for the whole world. In WoW they had oceanic servers for most European contries but during NA maint we would infiltrate their servers, doesn't make them international. People will choose the one that better suites their location. 25 servers are in the Japan data center and 25 in US data center that hosts most if not all regions outside of Japan.

Well, Thats their prerogative. In 1.0, the servers were for the whole world even tho they were all in Japan. They didn't IP block new servers from anyone (except china and korea maybe), so they remain for the whole world even tho there are 2 data centers to choose from now.

But it is what it is. I know SE is mostly to blame for whats happening. They should have gotten a data center physically in the EU region instead of combining them. Japan data center certainly has a lot less players logged into it thats for sure. But then again if the players didn't have to have that extra 150-200ms..... :P

But I'm still laughing about it, because some peoples reason was merely to "Get away from JP players". Terrible reason, and I hope the ones with that reason were the ones stuck with 3012 or whatever it was
