I was wondering. You know how since the US servers are located on the west coast, and I live on the east coast as do many others. What if instead of just having one big US server, we had a EC(east coast)and WC(west coast). There's a bit of lag not a lot, but some delay for being a bit far from the servers.. I live in michigan and get okish connection , and I have a solid internet. I feel bad for those people even further back then me, yeah we have the CA servers but most of the good people play on US and it tends to get a bit boring. I'm not saying to make it for that reason, but it would be cool to see a change up in the community. I would love a WC and EC. What do you guys think?

CA is hosted in Quebec, and myself and a few others from the east coast get amazing connection. Try playing some games on there. Seeing as you're from Michigan, it should be a lot better.

I've been playing for the longest time, I get amazing connection in CA. I get like 8/10ish connecting to US seeing as it's like 2.5k miles away. There's just a bit of lag but I guess you can push through it.

You could always split the servers, about 25 got to the East Coast, and the others go to West. That would improve the price a bit. Plus, it would be fun to see the top Eastern players in comparison to the Western players (memorize who plays on which servers). Anyway, I really only play on US when teaming because otherwise I get bad lag (bad computer :/ ). I now have to play on the CA servers. But I'm not complaining, my wins have improved drastically since I got the FPS/connection boost. Glad this post is over... I can't help my sometimes very long comments

Interesting idea. It would really depend on if they could get good Eastern hosting.

Maybe a big city like Boston or DC?

I don't think it's necessary, as I am from Canada but I still get a great connection to the US servers that I know of, and if it is off it's not noticeable to me. But if many people want the 2 different regions, then who am I to say no? :p

Well, I don't think it would cost more to move the server host's location as long as we kept the same amount of servers.
