First I should say, this is a great game, it reminds me the microsoft free lancer
It’s all going well until I engaged into a pvp battle
Since I live in China I picked the south asia server in order to play in a low latency, but maybe there’re only few players in this region so after few minutes I was transfered to Russian server by system ip 91.230.xx.xxx
Lots of players here but my ping raise to 500+ms with a 6% chance of packet loss, this is unbearable, can’t even control my hull
So I’d like to ask if there’s any possibility to block this server auto transfer to keep my own server choice, I can wait whatever it takes, at least I can shoot down some bots
there is no possibility to block a server. Furthermore it could take a very long time to find a match on a certain server depending on where most of the other players are queuing.

Since server selection was implemented, I’ve always chosen SA as my preferred server, and I’ve played during all times of the day and I’m consistently given a match in the RU server. Furthermore I tend to have very short wait times, at most around 3 minutes, which gives me the impression that my server preference isn’t even put into consideration to begin with.
I know it’s maybe a dilemma that developers want to present a best game experience by balancing player queuing time with bad latency uncontrollable aircraft
to me and I believe majority of players, they would chose to wait in queue
cuz for the first time in the game, when I flying into that deep, secret and beautiful universe, wow, I just can’t help myself smiling, I’m so joyful like I fulfilled something big in my life, it’s a dream come true.
And when I controlled my spaceship traveling through those asteroids, circumventing those obstacles like a real pilot, tracing and hunting space pirate like a hero, skirmishing enemy players and defending my faction like a warrior
I’m totally impressed by all of these exciting experiences
But everything have changed when they came with a bad latency, my darling interceptor acted like a headless chicken, bouncing among asteroids and ruins like a crap, watching enemy destroying my allies one by one like a coward, this is so frustrated
All I’m asking is to add an option allowing players to chose if they can keep their server selection or to be auto moved to Russian server after several minutes’ fail matching
And I think it would be better and better when more and more players around the world accessed and learned this splendid fantastic universe of Star Conflict
