NA or EU?

Baneblade · 2012-04-13, 10:28 PM

It occurs to me that this is an important thing to be looked at.

Would be interesting to see the divide.

I'm expecting a 70/30 split in favour of NA.

Edit: Nevermind

but for anyone else who was wondering what the OP meant

NA = North America
EU = Europe

North America. If they have more than one NA server i hope they put one in the northern part of the states or even in Canada would be better, playing @ 100 ping makes a big difference when using automatic guns.

It's an important thing to be looked at, but any data found on this site isn't going to be applicable to the entire PS population.

It's called sampling. Which is what all polls are actually doing.

But people who post on forums may be fundamentally different from those who don't~

I resent that. Canada is the cool part of North America.

I'm from the EU but as it looks now, and SOE keeps their word on free server choice, I will play on a NA server. I'd rather deal with an increase in ping time (within reasonable limits of course) and odd hours, than another outsourced hosting deal with the typical issues every single one of those has had through the years.

I can appreciate the challenges the European continent brings for a publisher when it comes to different countries/languages/support/etc. But if at all possible, I would suggest to SOE to host their own English language servers for Europe. I expect that the gain in paying customers would far outweigh any extra cost of providing the servers.

more comical poll would be what empire do you play per region. I feel like TR has a good amount of EU players while NC gets a good amount of NA players. Funny how it works out like that
