Are you playing from AUS , NZ , JPN , IND General OCE

Heady

Just looking to get a general idea of how many people are playing from the OCE/Asia region to see if ZOS FB statement is actually somewhat accurate, i know that not every single player will see this. Got to pay for my ping to be at somewhat acceptable levels on top of eso+ .

also just another thread to keep this topic alive

Digiman

Yes, my ping too high

the problem is that some USA players still expierence high ping... usually because of akamai

Gythral

None of the above!

& the ping is worse than playing on a Korean server from the EU (and that's to the EU server)

Most games the 1 and only NA server has a better (and more reliably) ping the PC-EU server!

the whole akami implementation was just plain idiotic tbh, if you have a low population the chance of your servers getting ddosed should be less, assuming less people to get angry

And also why can't ZOS get decent ddos protection that doesn't reroute us through asia.

Your poll is bad and you should feel bad.

I'm in Japan and my ping isn't too high. I usually get around 170ms. It could be better of course, but I don't have any issue in PvE. In PvP, it is good enough even if I feel like under 100ms would give me a slight advantage, especially because of that damn stupid animation cancelling.

Rural NZ, rockin 1/2 mb up n down for the last 5 years..... but something changed this week and now the I am the proud user of a 7mb download connection. Managed to get 1/2 the dlc vets done in a week, which were impossible before this. Ping has dropped from 400+ to a lovely buttery smooth 240 on a good night. Now I can see the red and 1/2 the time avoid it before it kills me.

I have 300 ping. People were complaining about it getting higher recently but its been 300 ping the whole time I have been playing so I haven't been experiencing higher ping recently.

I'm in Japan and I sat at around 200-210ms in normal overland and 230ish in trials until Wrathstone; now it's more like 215-230 overland, 260ish in trials. PVP is worse but not unplayable, unless I make the (terrible, no good, very bad) choice to set foot in Vivec during NA weekend primetime.

Yes, my ping too high

I'm from New Zealand, and have never seen a ping lower than 280. Most of the time it sets between 300 to 328. Yesterday It stayed in the 400's.

What I would give to be under 100. The game-play must feel amazing.

I fully understand the performance issues that Oceanic players have, but the problem as always is that people who want to make a fair point muddy the waters by making a frankly pathetic poll that cannot remotely achieve anything.

The Facebook statement - https://www.facebook.com/370789406653075/posts/816267168771961/ - isn't primarily about performance, it's about the non-viability of launching a local server for those players given the limited number of players concerned and the resulting inferior game experience they would enjoy in terms of e.g. group and PvP activity etc. Counter that by all means, but do so by contesting the number of players, not by making immature and biased comments about the ping.

The problem is highlighted by the comment of one of the Oceanic players on Facebook who says that when he plays on the NA server in his timezone the server is dead, but when he plays at weird hours i.e. prime NA time it's so full he crashes. That's an indication that the number of players in his timezone isn't remotely viable for a separate megaserver, which is the only point ZOS are making.

I'm 100% in support of Oceanic players, but far from advancing their case this poll sets it back by trivialising the issue in immature terms. Press them on the routing issues, and if there are grounds on which to contest the player numbers then press them on that too.

Sylvermynx

Other. I'm in the US southwest, and my ping is through the roof, as I live in the back of beyond and have only satellite for broadband.

No point in me complaining about ping being over 100....

Just out of curiosity how many active players do you reckon would be needed in peak/ off peak times for a server to be viable
