Petition to make NA1 a West Coast Server

[Meow]

Yeah, let's add the good ones then I say?

[Brrrak]

They have better maps, which is why people went to them.

Forgot your tags there, Mirey.

[sarcasm]Oh forgot everyone has said the maps are better and complained about the official ones, at least that I've seen. [/sarcasm]

My blocks actually work most of the time on Community servers, unlike on the Official...

I believe there should be a westcoast server... First off you have East coast players getting 30 - 40 ping in Chicago and us Westcoast players get a 75-90 ping there.

You call that central, I think not.

In my opinion a westcoast server would be nice... they have stronger hosting data bases Like Dallas  

On top of that, east coast players wouldn't have a problem with ping because since Dallas has a stronger hosting data bases then most states they should get no more then 60 ping unless you live out there in the woods with 4g and only allowed 10gigs of internet...

W00T Ryan Knows best.

Soo.... Plus one to Namo

I've had the opposite experience with blocks.  But then again there's some issues with my net recently.

As for everyone?  I've only seen a very vocal group that hardly counts for the entire NA playerbase.  Personally, after playing on community, I desire the official servers more, simply because ladders were removed for a reason.

Basically my whole point...
Maybe we should just have 3-6 servers in Dallas.
Then again Canadia might get a bad ping and i feel like our SA player base is rather small at the moment...
Not sure.
I'll try to get some IPs from the local data centers so we can figure out what's best for the players.
Right now i feel like we do not need more serves in the same location and the community serves might just be overkill for the NA community.

Being in California I would love a West Coast server, however I think Texas rather than Chicago would be "fair".  Look at a map, Chicago is not by any means in the middle.

Texas.

[Brrrak]

Put the server in Topeka.

[Meow]

Well...my question would be if we can all agree that having 3-5 official servers is enough?
Obviously the NA Community map guys are doing a decent job, not reason not to have them supply the official map cycle.

[BADPLAYERold]

please don't move the server further west, i get bad enough ping as it is tia

[Renten]

West Coast players could always just get together and run their own community server through donations. Plus it'd get the maps you guys want.

You are still in GB though, right?

Yes, every community could host their own servers but we obviously need the best possible location for everyone.
In this case not more servers in the same location

[Voso]

West Coast would be great, lets just put it in California. 


Or Washington, I am good with that.

We asked shik to do that and I think maybe 2 or 3 were added. Also, keep in mind that a lot of the maps were made with the thought of ladders in battle.

Well, fully syncing NA and EU while adding more maps sounds like way to go
