I would really want some confirmation if there will be servers located in the Asia Pacific region when it is released. Playing with 300+ms ping can be a little unsatisfying especially when dodging at times:mad:
I'm sure many of us here in the asia pacific region share the same issue.

Guild Wars 1 had the best solution for this problem.
There were a group of instances on American servers, a group on European, a group in Asia, and some middle-ground international servers.
While each set of instances were hosted physically in different parts of the world, they were all linked to the main account server - so a player could simply move shard from European district 1 to American district 1 or Asia 1 to play with friends on the other side of the world and vice-versa - all in game without logging out. This meant that if you wanted the best connection possible you could always play on the servers for your continent, but still have the option of switching shards on demand.
Personally I want to see European server shards, simply so I have the best connection possible and so events can be thrown in my time-zone.
Also seperate role-play shards would be welcome - this is D&D afterall... Casual players and role-players wont exactly mix too well.
I have been an occasional role-player, and its pretty hard to do it well on a server when you have kids talking about HAMSTER each others mothers, and bragging about how they are uber geared and everyone else sucks..
It destroys the illusion a bit to say the least... Seperate shards for people only interested in the mechanics of play and winning, and seperate shards for those who want to play a D&D character and are interested in the story side of things please. It is ESSENTIAL
