Basically this is a semi-rant on 'International'.
At the moment the majority well ALL servers are I'm sure American based time zones for events such as TW etc.
The new servers I believe were to be European and East-Coast friendly 00:00am is not really that friendly in my eyes, 8pm for East-Coast players is friendly though so applauds to that one. All I am thinking is there should be one more server (PvP possibly as that would make it 3 PvE 3 PvP) dedicated to the European time zones such as GMT, GMT +1 and so on. The new servers didn't quite kick off with a good start for time zones for us European players.

Summary, if you don't want to read that paragraph.
There should be a dedicated European timed server.

I know everything doesn't go your way but it would help a lot of people out :D

    That'd be cool but PWI is stationed in America.

    To have the servers to be maintained, they'd have to have a branch in Europe.

    Which I don't think is possible.

    So unless you abosultley, aren't happy with the EST. times, I advise you check out PW-MS. (It sucks, trust me)

    I vote we should have 1 server in each time zone... hehehe
    1. If I kill you; do something about it yourself, don't go complaining to my wife.
    2. If you have less kill counts then me, don't expect me to take pk advice from you.
    3. If you are hiding behind an alt, don't expect me to acknowledge your existence.

    in my opinion.. to the ones of us who have played for awhile.. it really doesn't matter where the server is.. or if they make new ones.. I've spent hundreds on G and hundreds of hours on my character on Sanctuary.. I'm not about to just walk away from that so that I can start a new char on a new server just because it's in the same time zone as me.. some people might.. but I have better things to do with my money than spend it twice on the same things

    We could all learn a lot from crayons, some are sharp, some are pretty, some are dull, some have weird names (like chartreuse), and all are different colors....BUT they ALL exist very nicely in the same box!

    That's logical but maybe some people like me who are only 6x don't want to level up anymore because they wont be able to attend events like TW because of the time zone difference I'm going to wait see if they release a Euro based server if not I'l find another mmo for the time being.

    This is PWI-NA, NA = North America


    It's possible they will eventually open servers in Europe and either tie them into this one or call it PWI-EU.

    That version....the skill names alone will put you off.

    "Rock Fall Spell"

    What I think the OP means is, a server with events(TWs, DT, Races etc.) timed for european players.

    I'm British and I manage to make all of these when I have too.

    Races-First one of the day occurs at 8:30pm
    TW-This one is pushing it but since it does happen on the weekend it's doable, occurs around 4am.
    Dragon's Temple-6am, I try to make this as often as I can(poor Nefarious lowbies). I do this one for risk free PvP, which is also why I'm really hoping they re-open the Arena.
    Currently flying internet spaceships around dodixie, moving to amarr soon.

    Send me a mail if you wanna ask/request anything

    I fail to see why having a server on European time would require it to be physically located in Europe. Maintenance would just happen about 4am server time instead of late evening, which would be pretty convenient.

    I agree, it would be awesome to be able to have TW and everything else for my time zone - could they not just move the TW times 2 hours earlier on the "European" friendly servers, at least then the TW would be at 11pm which is semi reasonable,

    because if it was in NA they would get lag like we would get lag if we played on MY

    and no we shouldn't have a other server. having to much servers can destroy a game....*cough*rohan online*cough*.

    We have 3 PvE Servers and 2 PvP Servers.
    I'm waiting for the 3rd PvP server to come out but it looks like it wont be released soon, so I'm chilling in Jade Dynasty.
    Can any GM's confirm if any servers will be released over the summer?

    Harshlands is too under populated for them to think about another PvP server

    As a GM has stated before PWI is North American based and will always be. The reason it's called international is because they allow people from all countries connect to the game, while other versions try to limit the people that are able to connect.

    Its really perfect world USA, they call it international because they think america is the world. eg baseball's "world series", populated solely by american teams. :P
