NA servers: How to fix or How do we get better one?

[Lt_Anders]

So, How do we fix the NA servers to get either something that works or how do we fix the one we got?

I just read that ever the regular NA server gets 50 FPS and NA 3 gets 30 FPS regardless of Client side FPS.

FIX PLEASE or TELL US HOW TO HELP!

FPS and blocks not registering or going opposite ways depending on whose screen you're looking at...

yeah shit's really lame, we're a 1/3rd of the playerbase (maybe a larger percentage now) and NA 3 is just straight up incapable of running strat battles (even duel is laggy nowadays) and NA 1 is also known to shit the bed during primetime. (sometimes my ping goes from 75 to 110 which is amazing let me tell you)

i think everyone in NA would be happy to contribute to better servers, but honestly based on the current situation it seems like EU gets funding disproportionate to their playerbase.

also move the servers to dallas TIA

This makes sense now when thinking of it. If it's not client based. No wonder turning down settings to shit barely helped.

FIX NA SERVERS NOW!

The amazing thing to me is that it couldn't be entirely difficult to remedy this situation. You've got dozens of fine Americlaps willing to throw ameribucks at the problem; it's not financial. I don't imagine that ordering or renting a server based in Clapistan is too tricky even if you live in Yuroville. So, here's the possible situations as I see it:

1. The devs refuse to read the many, many topics about this. Almost impossible.
2. The devs have been thinking about the perfect way to fix this for many, many months and refuse to take any action until a FINAL SOLUTION is created. Also unlikely.
3. The devs enjoy the pain and suffering of clapistani scum such as ourselves. The problem is not a problem after all, but a simple feature insuring good laughs from across the pond. Highly likely.

devs hate americans fills them with glee to see us suffer.

I don't think the dev's want to take our money is the problem. 

And anyone could have asked me, I get 250fps constantly in the battle server and in strat it will drop to around 150 mark (but pretty consistent 150-250fps), but I'm obviously not getting 250fps because the server is only processing 30 or 60fps.  Usually battle on NA1 is fine, but I will sometimes notice it there too.

This is been an ongoing issue, and it makes trying to fight in strat battles a huge chore.

chadz and cmp are aware of that problem. Dunno what that means for changing the status quo though.

Devs confirmed for harvesting NA tears for their personal consumption.

... like EU gets funding disproportionate to their playerbase. ...

indeed, NA server costs twice the money EU costs ;)

we're aware of it, and thinking about ways to solve it

Its a Christmas Miracle. We have been acknowledged. The Grinch's heart grew 10 fold that day.

Why don't you just cut back on our server sizes, imo siege could truly use an 80 slot limit and NA-1 could go back to 120. Also, does the NA3 server need 200 slots? I'm all for cutting down on our server slot limits, if it reduces the price for servers and can get us a better strat server.

Edit: Doesn't contribute to the price.

I didn't see lag. Can I get a specific time when it would happen?

admittedly i was just trying to bait one of you into responding but - how is it possible that the NA server costs twice as much yet remains three times as shitty?

froto: most of the holds you see badplayer doing were not intentional
