South African servers not working

Hallo.

When me and my friends log in and select South African server, it takes us to Frankfurt or Paris servers.. Feels bad playing with 180ms. Are GGG aware of this problem? Busy fixing?


Thank you GGG! Smooth now :)
Thank you everyone for helping...

Same here. Hope they fix it soon

Hi. Same here! I keep getting put on a non-South African server, and it's a pretty bad experience with high ping considering lockstep is permanently on now, without an option to disable it.

Please help GGG :) Otherwise, great job on the smooth EA launch :D

Hi,

I would also like to add to the thread and say we need servers.

I bought into the game because i was under the impression we would have our own servers just like in PoE 1.

Playing on EU servers severly impacts the experience as playing with 170+ ping is really not an ideal experience

they dont care.

Every other location up and can be connected to except South Africa, please GGG don't let us suffer again like before.

The delay on button clicks on EU servers are so noticeable

We are struggling here with not being able to actually be connected to the South African Servers.

Same problem here. Selecting South African servers still gives me around 180ms ping, which feels awful. I really hope this gets fixed soon!

Would be nice if GGG at least acknowledged the issue or indicated if they are planning to fix it.
The latency to EU makes everything feel slow and delayed.
