Taking into Account High Pings

[zurtri]

Hi guys,

I'm from Australia and my ping on most MMORPG with US servers is about 330. Sometimes it gets to 290 but rarely lower than that.

Is there a mechanism in the game that allows us to play at a reasonable level such as the ability to "load up" attack moves in advance with the server playing them as quick as feasible?

OR

Will there be a Australian / New Zealand Server. I can only but dream.

OR

Is there something else that can be done to help the blokes from down under?


Thanks
Zurtri

The Oceanic Issue is definitely an interesting one both from location and time zone related issues. Pending launch we would have to see how many fans we get in the Oceanic region and if we can find a hosting partner who we will would do a good job running the servers then we could evaluate another server as an option. However Conan does play pretty good even with some latency as I answered in another question.

Thank you.

What specs would you need for a hosting partner? I know of a few companies that could assist and come back with a quote.
