And if you aren't hitting 300+ ping then you really have no issue.
Personally mine is anywhere from 300-900ms at any given time. And I can still play just fine.
I can tell you a major point regarding just that, population.
Australia: ~22M
North America: ~350M
Europe: ~740M

So not having a server located in the middle of this side of the planet is just ridiculous.
As for aussies, having a optical sea fiber laid on the bottom of the sea between japan, australia other and "nearby" contries would help. I dont know how much infrastructure there is already though.
