Okay so my complaint is that russians have a huge advantage. We have a team that’s europe and USA vs 3 russians. It chooses russian server. So my team has 230 ping, 430 ping, and 140 ping vs their ridiculously good ping. Me and my squad mates all have put in more money than these guys. Why do they get preference? This game isn’t pay2win… it’s pay and lose! Why do i support the game when you screw me over?
Maybe you have wondered why the player base is so low?
Maybe you have wondered how so many people quit such a good game?
The answer to these questions is here: You have crappy servers and you need to call somebody up and say, “fix it or you’re fired”.
My account has 105 dollars worth of gold and dlcs in it. That money can go towards a USA server.
If i post a full bug report will you actually fix it? This is the whole reason i don’t post bug reports, because I believe it’s useless.
Also, locking this thread will only discourage me and many other players from buying things this new years! Please actually have a discussion instead of ignoring the problem because that is literally the reason this game is dying.
Edited to remove my snarky comments…
Also edited to add suggested server locations:
USA: Texas
Europe: Germany
Russia: Eastern and Central Russia (so that everyone has good ping)
$105 for a server? You must be thinking back-alley dumpster server. A decent server not only costs at -least- a few thousand dollars, but you also need to pay for connectivity and services on it. Running a server takes a whole lot more effort than y’all realise. Just sayin.
And I do agree with the suggestion, it’s just that your concept of “server” is a bit lacking.
Git gud. I stomp Russians on their own servers all day. Ping is irrelevant to how well you play.
This is funny coming from an average pilot who farms t3 in US primetime and whose win loss is and has been sitting at 1.17. Also, you obviously don’t understand what ping is so i am providing you a link to wikipedia.

I didn’t say that would pay for all of it, but I guess it could be misunderstood so i will fix it for you.
Also, SC rents servers, it doesn’t own them. The developer blogs implied this (devs feel free to correct me) and renting a server that would host plenty of games costs 800 bucks a month. IDK how much resources hosting an SC server takes, but i would assume you could host a lot of games on one of those servers. Of course ports would be interesting hosting multiple games per server but i have done it before.

The funny thing is, I don’t play t3. Check your facts, kiddo :006j:
Also, you get carried, you don’t do any of the carrying. It’s simple.
Finally, I know what ping is, but I’m skilled enough to play even in high ping. You obviously aren’t, and are crying and blaming others for your own incompetency.

does anybody want to correct him for me?
The last time you saw me was quite a while ago and even then i was better than you. I was not carried with base, milf, and tomi. We were a team and i was the designated frig slayer. There were many games where we would have lost without me which is undeniable. And don’t think i didn’t hear about you asking if we were in queue before you queued! We all thought it was hilarious.
Ooo, so scary. Typical internet kids. “1v1 me fgt” LOL
I don’t even remember the last time I saw you, since you’re so irrelevant.
Tell me more about this “memory” of yours. Because I sure as hell don’t remember it.
And I’m not calling you out on your definition of ping. I’m calling you out on your inability to deal with a slight challenge and your crying about an issue that can be mitigated.

Now you’re sounding old mecron. “Typical internet kids”, “I don’t remember”, “Tell me more about this ‘memory’ of yours”. Are you low on testosterone? There are some pills for that! Anyways, pretty soon, you’ll stop irritating me cuz you won’t be able to turn on your pc.
Also, it’s not a slight challenge vsing decent pilots with good ping while you have 1 team mate who is disabled from 450 ping and you have 230 ping in a game that requires interceptors.
If you had balls, you’d 1v1 me, but apparently you don’t. Message me ingame if you decide to grow a pair, otherwise, you should stop being a fool and arguing with someone who is trying to get something that will benefit literally the whole game. This benefits the russians too. More USA servers means more USA players and more money in the game which means better development.
80% dread fights i have played were on russian servers Error. 240 ping or more… and there was no russian players in our team (NA, SA, Europe). But people-corporations should know on whitch server fight will be when announcing dread battle. Because taking place in a battle where u cant even shoot is total wasting of time.
PvP is ok in my case though. Of course on european servers. Ping= 55-120. Same with PvE.

If you are a Russian based company you dont buy US servers and hire someone to maintain them you rent from a company that hosts.
Next issue filling the servers a little advertising would make for great returns on your investment. The “game” is one that people love but for a new player the learning curve is very steep. Add to that bad ping and seal clubbers it makes it hard to keep the players that you do get
I would say that its not complaining about ping to hear our own noise it because we care and get frustrated with the same issues over and over.
I will leave you with this question why would a game that is epic in Russia, is great in Europe only have a handfull of North American, (in compairson to other playerbases) players?
bad times for Dreads, Ping issues, Bugs (or features as we refer to them) and no advertising maybe

Okay, how should I put this so that you don’t get even more butthurt.
You’re literally not even worth my time or my effort to get involved with ingame. I call you out on your idiocy, and you can reply however you see fit on the forums. I don’t have to prove anything, I’m merely stating the facts that you need to git gud and stop crying. That’s it.
Oh, and one last thing - here’s something from the inside: the devs are not prioritizing our playerbase as much as the Russian/EU playerbase. Put simply, there is more benefit for focusing on them because there is simply more profit waiting for them. It’s a standard business model.
The NA players bxtch and moan a lot, and want a lot of handholding, which is something that the rest of the world does not require. Especially the Russians, who are willing to play and spend money on a game they’ve already got the advantage in. So as long as SC exists, NA players will always be in the minority. And we will always get the short end of the stick.

You know that ping actually depends on many factors and the server hardware is the smallest factor of them all?
The greater the distance, the higher the ping.
Ofc, but whatever you have with your servers is bad. Either it’s bad placement (easily fixed), bad connection with the servers (also easily fixed by switching server hosting companies), or it’s bad hardware (even more easily fixed), it’s not something that you guys should ignore. Yes quality hosting costs money, but if you don’t get it, you’re not going to get money anyways. This all comes down to one thing, you need to spend money to make money. You need to spend money on NA advertising, more NA servers, better EU servers, and better rus servers. (Better referring to placement) If you guys bought one of those steam popup windows for a day (which would probably cost plenty of money), you would also get a crap ton more players.

What we are saying is,
Yes on any server I can take my Gaurd and kill Aces
But
We feel that if some more attention was used on the North American player base
It would be a good thing for not only the players but the people who are trying to make money from this game,
all we are asking really is to be able to play on a even feild
We dig the game other wise we would not have been around so long

I take my GAURD with a mass driver
everytime I get a Russian server
yeah and what if it’s detonation? How are you supposed to win as a guard in detonation, especially if you’re one of the players meant to balance out the no0bs on your team? 230 ping interceptor is challenging, especially vs 10 ping ESBs.

Hey, here’s a tip: Don’t play Guard in detonation.
