[Earthdforce]

This would make Strategus west. This would be a no.

So I guess it's settled then...

NA1 Will be a Seattle server.

I would love to see a NW coast server. If not that, then perhaps a Texas server.

Chicago isn't bad, but I've always wanted to try the game with something lower than 80-100 ping.

Put it in Texas in a city no one fucking lives near.

[EyeBeat]

I say we keep it in chicago.

I donated 100 dollars so keep it in chicago.

THANKS.

PS: Serge and Namo would be bad on the west coast server as well as the chicago server.

what a jerk! lol

It's true that East Coast and Central players have a ping advantage. I'm in the Seattle area and average 75-85 ping--roughly twice the latency of an east coast player. As you can see by the vote distribution, at least half the players who voted would prefer a west coast server in addition to the Chicago server.

Host it in California or Washington. +1

I say no.  NA-1 is where the majority of people are playing.  Ask the community server to move.

Also, it shouldn't be a west coast server, maybe texas (one less WAN hop).  Texas and Chi are the best server locations because even if you're west coast, chi is better than NYC.  And if you're east, Texas is better than Cali or (FSM forbid, Seattle).

IMO a server should never be farther west than Los Angeles , and farther east than NYC, but central servers are the best for meeting everyone's needs (as a whole).

Great idea everyone: Lets put it up here in Washington state so that everyone's screwed except for me. Florida is also a great idea too. Lets just keep it in little corners of the US.

You'd be surprised by how many of us live in Bellingham Washington. You'd think we were a major city or something by how many of us there are in such a small community. Wouldn't be surprised if it turned out more people lived here than in Seattle from CRPG.

I gained 10 ping when Zealot moved the server from Texas to Chicago, so I'd definitely prefer the old location, having below 60 ping was amazing. Sometimes it spikes as high as 80's lately. Actually having an official west-coast server would be a bad idea though, unless it were say... a small 40-60 man server that could also be used for battlegroups?

Now, I can deal with the official server being in Chicago even though it's three quarters of the way toward the East coast, but why on earth did the community guys put up a competing server in the same city?  It annoys me greatly.
