Servers and EUUS

Post » Mon Feb 17, 2014 5:16 am

How is this going to work? Are US and EU players going to be completely seperated via separate clients, or will both have their own megaservers you can choose between, or are both sharing the same megaserver?

Forcing a complete split between US and EU communities was something that bugged the hell out of me in WoW. Other MMORPGs have at least allowed players a choice between US and EU servers, and I hope TESO offers the same choice if I feel like playing with some American friends.

Think you can, but you put your self at a disadvantage in pvp due to lag/response why they split the regions in the first place IMO.

Lag isn't an issue. Most EU players can probably play on east coast servers with a 100-150 ping range. It's not as critical as something like a twitch FPS where every millisecond counts.

Déjà vu lol had same convocation on the marvel hero forums :) you will still notice it, we'll not sure how your playing but you need to move about and keep track of your enemy moving and jumping about the place, ie fast movements and a lot of them.

You can choose if you want to play on EU server or US server. But your character is bound to the server you are playing on. So if you start with the EU server and you have a character for example at level 10 and you want to change to the US server, you will have to create a new character.

while i agree most of the time the ping was not an issue, during some combat it was noticable where there was an ability delay, blocking/shield spells etc. Now wether this was a ping issue or a server capacity issue i'm not sure, but for this reason alone i am happy to have the seperate servers.

Ideally I would have loved for the EU and US mega servers to be connected. But yeah, two separate servers clusters that never cross one another is what we will have.
