Servers - Daddy_XL - 08-31-2006
So im curious... Which is better West or East servers? Im thinking of playing Europe cause of Frater but that would be a silly notion due to language barriers and not knowing anyone else. So i would like PRo's and Con;s of the different Servers.. it seems like when i play on east there is nobody on very often( i play at odd times). Please feel free to give facts or "imo"'s on it. Thank you. GG

East has extremely large and often lag spikes, most players are noobs, loats of duping. West is normal, full of noobs I have heard. Europe seems fine. And asia or w/e the last one is, I wouldn't even look towards that one.

Where are your friends playing? I think most of BZS plays east or both east\west (at least the ones I know personally do), but it is your decision.
A few more players in East but the game is generally the same in both east and west, some slight difference in prices and stuff.

I feel flattered :o
Anyway, I probably won't play a lot this season any more, but if you decide to come to Europe, I could always rush/arrange a rush for you, and I probably have some free starting gear lieing around as well. Bear in mind the fact that Europe is far less affected by duping than the US realms, so getting hold of godly equipment can be rediculously difficult. Also, before you start, you ought to check your ping on the realm.
And lol, there is no language barrier, everyone in Europe speaks English (surprise, surprise).
If you decide to convert, let me know, but I won't personally be able to help you before I get home (9th of September), but I could probably ask one of my clanmates over msn to rush you.
In fact, I'm not sure about how much I'll be able to play next season as well, it's all dependant on when it's coming, because I'm starting uni at the end of September and that will keep me extremely busy, but I will probably be playing during most of my free time, initially at least (ladder reset = serious business).

i play west but lve east poeple seem nicer and does not lagg as much for me and time i play is earky mornings so west works for me
Servers - Daddy_XL - 09-04-2006
yea ppl on the westcoast are way more laid back i agree from living here... but i guess being born in the east i like to play there too..

US EAST is huge you just have to consider at what time your playing + the average age of players = what times to play. Given kids going to school hours might be some of the best times as soon as there back in school. Also, try past there bedtimes.. Ha ha!
Servers - pawoodchuck - 09-07-2006
past their bedtimes that is a good one lol

haha yah west there r alot of noobs who walk around aimlessly asking for free items or a free rush.
i'd say if u want a great server to play on..lag free, go with west. most botters/merc glitchers were banned so no more lag for me
uhh on asia i hear people talking in chinese or japanese or some azn language, so it mite be a lil hard to communicate with those guys..

Your ignorance never seizes to amaze me.
Anyway, I strongly recommend that you choose your realm according to your location and therefore latency.

Exactly correct. Closer to your location can coincide with my original post. At least you can see what times are best to play according to your area, that should have better stability.
