can anyone recommend which server would be the best option in the long run?

i have been playing on the euro servers, got one of each character up to level 10 or thereabouts.  then the euro server went down  yesterday so thought i would test out the other two.  i logged on again this evening, euro is hovering around 380-440, although im pretty sure it was lower than this before they crashed, maybe 300-320.

us servers give me around 260-320, for some reason asian servers never seem to drop below 400.   should i jump to the us server now or wait for them to sort out the euro ones?

The Asian servers, no doubt for me. 150ms ping every day in the morning (until the Koreans are out of school and it goes up to 300ms but hey in the long run, 150ms is great and that will happen when the hype goes down a bit).

EUR is bad here for me, 500ms up. US pretty bad too, maybe 400ish. But yeah, the US are better than EUR servers but to have real Asian servers is awesome, finally Blizz did it. On WoW it's still a dream only. SW:TOR with Oz servers takes the crown though in terms of overall latency for me, never goes above 150ms no matter how many people play.

I have just bought it. Wow, that was a fast download. Less than 2 hrs for 7+GB in Bangkok is quite good Posted Image

Can't login though, servers full / error 37 so I am beginning to understand the nerdrage.

Ah well, patience.

Updating myself :)

I couldn't login on Asian servers so far. But the US and EUR servers work. US gives me 350ms latency, EUR 450ms. Pretty lame.

I sure hope Asian servers will be better.

Cheers,

I'm playing now in the americas server. The ping is around 300-400 and I've died a few times on harder bosses because of it.

It's ok, I can still play, but no way to have a character on hardcore mode.

I didn't buy it yet but according to the blizzard forums the asian servers are in Korea or Taiwan(this seems to be not 100% sure though with various rumours).

Also, in-game you can manually choose in which region you wanna play so the best thing would be to try EUR, Asian or US servers separately, compare ping and then start for real.


Also check this

And here more info about the regional restrictions concerning the real money auction house:
http://sea.battle.ne...regional-access

Would be great to know what latencies you guys get and on which servers it works best.

24 hrs from now I'll probably play it myself anyway though haha, just currently not sure if I wanna use my EU battle.net account and therefore not be able to use the real money auction house in Asia or if I will create a new Asian battle.net account just because of the auction house thingie (which i dun really care about tbh).

I wish Blizzard would have global play like in SW:TOR without any restrictions...

Cheers to MunterHunter and PhuketMan, looks like y'all be playing it also huh? See u in SW:TOR.

You don't need the reciept. Just count 90 days from the 14th of Feb including that day and that is your report date.
The departed and entered Thailand and stamps is what they will look for.

ok good thanks. Tired of paying fees for losing that silly paper...I am pretty sure last time it was removed and not returned at Thai immigration.
