I live in Australia and my ping is 300+ most of the time why can't the Oceanic community have there own server, when I pick flowers for Alchemy in the hollow city people with better ping just rob me all the time and I get owned in pvp and the other point is maintenance times really suck if ur on the east coast of Australia it comes at 10pm Monday night and if u live on the West coast it would be 7pm Monday evening, why cant you rotate the maintenance times so we don't cop it on our prime times. ty

    Sadly we Aussies are the last thing they worry about, mate. There aren't enough of us. Lucky for me I am on the east coast, and maintenance usually happens while I'm working. I don't think there's enough of us to warrant our own server unfortunately. :(

    I just had to put the question forward, I'm a paying customer I have a right to ask, just because they don't like vegemite doesn't mean we shouldn't be treated any different.

    You certainly have a right to ask, mate. And I would love to see a server for us too.

    Blizzard's 'Oceanic' server for years were in America and they tried years ago to establish an Aussie presence but gave up due to crass regulatory requirements and financial greed from the local ISPs. Eventually last year Blizzard did set up an Aussie data centre that's true but that's very recent.

    Which other MMOs actually have server farms on Aussie soil? I play 7 MMOs (ESO, Rift, WOW, FFXI, FFXIV, LoTRO, GW2) and of those only WOW has designated 'Oceanic' servers; maybe Guild Wars does too I guess given they're from that region, though Square Enix, though based in Japan, don't.
