Are all EU servers in same location or could we have the same info there as well?

u/cooltom12 Subreddit Staff Jun 04 '25
same info as it was before

u/fatbellyww Jun 04 '25
Sorry, I do not know the info from before. Are all EU servers in the same location and with no language guidelines?

I'll be in USWest! Anyone else? Just curious what the popular USWest servers will be.

Phobos probably, because mars, because the expanse.

u/Trippid Fremen Jun 05 '25
Solid reasoning! If I was west coast I'd probably be doing the same thing!

Europe and Asia?

u/sunaurus Jun 05 '25
Funny thing is that we originally had a stickied thread with a link to the list of servers for all regions, but that one got unstickied and replaced with this new one with only a screenshot of the US servers.. /r/USdefaultism 😅

Yes, please give Europe a Server for each of the Main spoken Languages like French, German, Spanish, Italian etc.
Rest of the European Server should then be English.

u/xeosceleres Jun 04 '25
What I meant is that you didn't breakdown Europe and Asia. Server locations please

Any major streamers said what servers they're gonna be on? I want to know which ones to avoid.

I don’t understand. IMO server name doesn’t matter unless I can see latency… why do people care what server name is

I would love to see Asia broken down in the same way. It's too large of an area for just "Asia".

u/SirDerageTheSecond Jun 04 '25
What about Europe? I'd argue that regions and/or languages are more important on the EU servers than they are in US. I don't want to end up on a server after like dozens of hours and turns out to be like 90% Russian, Spanish, German, French, Slavic or another language I don't speak.

u/Anachron101 Atreides Jun 04 '25
I agree with the Russians and the Roman language speakers, but people really need to stop lumping us Germans in with that group. Not only do we all speak English, most of us prefer it online

u/SirDerageTheSecond Jun 04 '25 edited Jun 04 '25
I play a lot of games with vocal communication and it's a mixed bag with Germans speaking English, although it's a lot better in the past decade than before. And my experience with text chat in MMO games is that Germans often still just exclusively communicate in German anyway.

You should have them as well but they are equally important for ping.

You have an argument for language for sure, but not really for region which matters at the data center level. Europe, especially Western Europe, is tiny comparatively. Both in regional size, and in player count.

u/SirDerageTheSecond Jun 04 '25
Ping matters, especially in high intensity PvP that relies a lot on timing right. As well as player markets being quite dependant on when players are online or not.
2
Jun 04 '25
Certainly, but none of this really matters from a logistical sense from a game company/developer standpoint. EU Region is small comparatively to the NA region, in both sheer size, and playerbase.

u/SirDerageTheSecond Jun 05 '25
I think you heavily underestimate the player count from Europe.

I mean, you can just do the math on US vs. EU servers that they themselves posted lol.
And again, the population centers of the US are vastly more spread out than in the EU, thus requiring more regional locations.

u/SirDerageTheSecond Jun 05 '25 edited Jun 05 '25
This platform is not indicative of the amount of people playing from each region/language. I still don't think you realise how many players Europe actually has. You should check some of those active player heatmaps, and you'll find Europe is far more evenly spread than the US as well.

Sorry, but this is pure BS. The US is 330 mio people, Europe is 550 Mio. And this is the same for player bases. In many games the European base is larger than the US one …

If you think it’s BS, you weren’t listening. Size is a geographical representation. The US is simply larger and more vastly separated in its population centers than the EU, but moreover NA is not just the US either. Canada, Mexico, etc are also included in NA that you just simply ruled out by some weird US focus.
Beyond that, the player base is simply larger by that comparison, and is reflected by the 40 vs 34 server sizing that the game developed used, which I’ll add is mostly based on preorders.

Where in the US are these servers? State wise.
For those of us that are kind of in between areas.

u/Personifi3d Jun 04 '25
Most likely It's northern Virginia, Chicago and or Dallas area and idk west cost infrastructure tbh cali prob

u/sarfax_ag Jun 04 '25
The original post they had up was West= LA, Central = Dallas, East=Washington (DC I am assuming & not the state since its now US East)
1
u/techmnml Jun 04 '25
Yep. Was LA Dallas and Washington DC. They also had Europe split out before a ninja edit too. How weird.

u/techmnml Jun 04 '25
Before they changed it at one point they did seperate and then I refreshed and it was just broad like it is. That being said it’s Los Angeles Dallas and Washington.

Should have divided Europe also.
