New Server (EU)

[Elindor]

Unfortunately dedicated server hosting prices in NA are stupidly high, so that's unlikely for now.

I had a hunch NA servers were on shared because the NA servers can have some weird server-side lag even when there's really low pop in the servers (when D3 came out for instance)...but that lag "stickyness" clears up pretty much every night around 1:00 AM Eastern I've personally noticed....

Was curious why that may be until someone mentioned they are probably running on shared servers and not dedicated ones...and therefore even if the NA Crpg pop is low at that moment, tax could be being put on the host server from other games/apps that are peaking at that time.

Is that correct or am I wrong in that?

We are trying to get EU1 to 200 people so we can run some tests and record some stats. That's why i'll double gold, xp & tick gain on EU1 for the next few hours. share the message.

They are running on a dedicated server, and a fairly good one at that (Xeon E3-1270). The stickyness might be due to bugs/memory leaks, but it's hard to tell.
However, while NA might not get a better server, they'll get the improved software as well.

We know, that's the software improvements we're talking about (better multithreading).

Ah that's okay, I hope it won't blow my PC up or something, with 100ish people I can play just fine, but +100 on top of that.. It'll blow up

1st try - couldnt find a server in a list
2nd try - connection to server lost

[Christo]

Yeah, I can't see EU1 either.

[Vibe]

it is missing!

[Leshma]

The cake is a lie!

[Saatana]

Yeah, I can't see EU1 either.

Too bad.. We are already 200 people enjoying the double XP / gold though... So there wouldn't even be any room for you guys. Maybe you have checked the box "don't show full servers" or something.

You think I am a fool or something?

I don't even have server filters on..

I think it just crashed again. Note: every time it crashes, a new bug is fixed, so this is great news!
