New Server Locations for The Awakening Beta
Great news for South American players! But I do have some questions:
If we choose to play on the Brazilian Servers, will we be able to use our old toons? Also, when we play on Brazilian servers, will there be players from all around the world (a regular Gateway, if I understand the meaning of the word correctly) or there will only be Brazilian and South American players? (on trade/general chats, towns, etc). Potato girl keeps on runnin'

" Let me help you out. Break it down for you. Gateway is just a way for you to connect to the Main server. Think of it this way. [ Players -> -Gateways- <-> Main server. ] 1) All your toons will remain because there are no changes on the main server. 2) Chat Channels is Global and isn't affected by Gateways. People from different Gateways can be on the same channel as well. 3) Yes you will mostly meet people from your own "Gateway". Do take note that if you have party members that are on a different "Gateway" and they create a Map Instance and you join it, you will be on whatever "Gateway" they are on instead and will be subjected to usual Ping/Latency differences.

Any news about server locations?

I think a server in Romania would be nice, because lot of people play Path of Exile in a VPN, because of this thread: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/103073
And the ping from the Server there to the server in the west Europe is horrible. So to lower the ping for player, who have packet loss and have to play with a VPN, would be really nice and i am so hopeful, that you think about it. |
