Just wondering what the difference was between servers on east and on west and if so what would be the best one to pick for someone that lives in England.

Thanks in advance :)

    The difference will be your ping based on location. East is gonig to be on the East Coast of the United States, and West will be on the West Coast of the United States. That in mind, the best one would be the one with the lowest ping, most likely the East server.

    All server are apparently located in California.

    What is know is that the events will be timed differently on the east and west servers.

    Ok thank you for the info, i guess ill have to pick east most likely because being in England is closest to the eastern part of america and plus from another game which i play im able to stay up for the events which i believe are in the eastern time zone (useless with what american time zones are lol)

    They should introduce servers to Europe. This will make it better for the rest of the world ;-;.

    Every game kinda needs that but then it would take up time and money recruiting GMs and MODs in europe and because its such a big area they would need multi lingual people or one person from each country to rep

    Well if they put servers in Europe fine as long as they don't IP ban them from here, I'm from the states and I play with Teb on most of the MMOs I play.

    Another company acquired the rights to run european servers.
