Host Location Of Loka

Haha EU Loka wowo

For those not aware it can be pretty deceptive how latitude in Europe lines up with North America. The yellow dot shows the rough location of the server currently. This is the most central location for us to host the server considering the bulk of our population is from North America (including the west coast), South America, and all over Europe. Even if we could host the server in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean it would increase the west coast of North America to the current ping of players from Turkey and vice versa, so there would be no gain, just a switch (the west coast US is comparable to western Europe currently).

We still want to expand and add another server location in Europe in the future, but while we still have a single central location there is no more optimal place to host it.

The current holder of Champion title is of a similar region, fwiw.

infinite debate of what ping is better / worse

truth is they both hold immense pros and cons anyone can be a top / great player with either ping! (I say this as in low ping to 120ms max) after 120ms I'm not so sure what you can do.

geographically not terribly far away, its most likely your connection/interchanges locally. especially if you live rurally.
(i live in the middle of nowhere and still manage 93-95ms) (you can also diagnose a faulty interchange by doing a traceroute)

Put the server on a boat in the middle of the ocean so everyone has equal ping boom fixed

what if we made a portable light cannon station for only loka traffic and beamed light across the world so precisely a sensor will pick it up counting as a packet. our connection speed is the speed of light, thats if you dont hit anything.

I play on 100-130ping (it fluctuates but ussaly like 125) and I agree that up to 120 it's really not that bad

 

[Wxndernut]

I play on 11ms I think loka server is fine where it is. I can barely handle my ping spikes to 14ms as it is now

 

[Litetzu]

+1 change it to miami to be with 40 ms

 

[DevvyVR]

+1 change it to miami to be with 40 ms

no.

-1 open world map and check if theres optimal location you're talking about

 

[monkeynick123ooh]

after network changed my ping dropped from 40 to 50 to 20 to 30 its very good
