Description and Message


Respected gm's
I am playing from UK and i am noticing high pings because of which my gameplay experience is really bad.
As its clear from ur earlier posts that you guyz are currently deciding where to permanently settle the server(and my guess is it will be in India as there has been no steps taken furthur in this area)
Please kindly think of abroad players also.... i am nt saying let Indian players suffer and all i just wanaa clear my point that please consider foreign a3players also.
P.s. Kindly dont say we are still thinking about it, please take a beneficial step for entire A3 community!!
Indian A3 fellowmates please support us.
Regards
Sahil

I believe previously implemented concept of 2 servers and 1 realm is the best solution for this.
Also in this case if one server goes down or acts abnormally we still had one good server to play in.
I knows its hard for our foreign players.
I think we should search for some middle ground so no one suffers at least. Also i think implementing something that takes care of the foreign players needs, will bring in more revenues & also give our server an edge over others.
It will be in the best interest of the a3 gaming community that everyone from Luton to Jakarta enjoys this addictive game.

P.S = Request to Maximus/Deadraizer and all others. This is a serious issue kindly do not spam in this thread

Lawl. man when did i n dead spam that much ?...we dont even post in every thread nwadays ... once or twice when we DO go off-topic...either we get warned or penalized...whereas ppl who just reply via smileys dnt get nething.. >,<... nvm dat.. !

@Topic...!
I agree to wat athenaindia said in this case bout the dual server ...that is the best solution to this whole issue...moreover some of my frnds frm foreign who had invested cash into the server just for fun coz they njoyed playing it mostly for the sake of the pings n eventually the melee rate...hav left the server coz of this shift.. !
And these players were some of the best ppl i knew on the server till date.. !
I do not hesitate a bit when is state that all of us will miss them on the server.. !

Though i myself reside in India...but i feel that always lookin at an issue with ur own perspective isnt the right thng to do.. !
I thnk smwhr smone has to thnk for the fellow a3mates too...n thats y im tryin to thnk frm the perspective of players playin from foreign.. !

Hence i also request u to do smthng bout the issue so that no1 suffers particularly due to this .. !

Dual servers won't be possible. If both the servers loose synchronization between them, it will really cause a lot of problems. Even if 1 byte of data is lost in the transit, the entire server will be down.

All MMORPGs have high ping issues depending on the location. There is nothing special that can be done about this.
There are million of Players who play official WOW from outside UK or US and have heavy ping. What did Blizz do about the laagers? They did nothing. Not because they can't afford a server elsewhere, but because Pings are always a problem. Its inevitable.

[sahil]

As nothing much can be done & lag problem will remain inevitable for foriegn players then i request u to please lock this topic from furthur spamming...
Ty for ur Kind cooperation..

dude oblivion b4 saying anything think it dis way fr 1 yr dis server was out of germany dat time did any i mean any foriegn player think abt indian player who r d majority?? did any1 post smthing like wat u did i appreciate u hv concern fr every1 but dey didnt hv d same kindness u did n used to exploit dis same lagg in pvp nw becoz dey r richer or give more money or smthing just fr few foreign players u want to shift it back to germany i thot a3mania was non money oriented man its fr a3 as a whole dude.. its fr every1 who loves to play a3

i agree u need money fr d running of d server @ d moment Gms hv enuf moeny to keep d server running fr another decade actually.... and dey said watever money dey get frm e shop dey will invest in server as a whole n not fr demselves(mayb a lil but not too much) dats y we give our GMs soo much freedom we letting dem live deir own lives n not forcing or flaming too much on dem to work hard in server.. so dat dey will get family time too... and in weekends dey concentrate in server wen dey r free we dont put too much pressure on dem coz we r not keeping dem as workers by donating money to server coz dis money goes fr server which we play in n not fr profitable works or wateva u want to call it... so i think server shift to india is a great decsion taken by GMs
it shows dey r not doing dis fr money but fr a3 communinty and m proud dat our GMs r like this....
