Uhtdred 238 Posted January 19, 2020 (edited) we all have 220ms in LA district (people from south america), it's been already 1 week without a NY financial or waterfront. All these days is the same, there's only one financial and one waterfront available, both are LA district. 1 year ago I had the same 220ms but in CITADEL. Now i gotta play with 220ms but in a LA district???? Edited January 19, 2020 by Uhtdred 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Deadliest 385 Posted January 19, 2020 (edited) Why do you think you guys are the only one who has high latency issues, there are other players who lived far from the servers and having a LA server will some what be a bit playable for those in Asia and Oceania. Those players have been playing on and off on 200-300 over the years + many with routing issues + worst stuck on a han server for serveral years due to g1 killing its whole Asia playerbase in the early days. So having them to play on 120-160 connecting to an NA server that's the best ping they could get right now and It will benefit for more population during different time zone if there were more Asia and Oceania players. In the end they going to recycle the locations again so be patient and wait you don't need to play apb, it's not like the whole Brazil player base will vanish and never come back.

Do you understand that? i'm not saying "remove LA districts", i'm saying that there should be a LA district and also a NY district. Apparently, financial 1 appears only when financial 2 is FULL, and when that happens, people keep going to financial 2 and nobody go financial 1.

WF was hosted in LA before, but this week it's in NY, which I think it's reasonable for them to cycle around and do testing on. if you don't want to play on 230ms u don't have to play. Who knows it could be routing issue, your isp end might wanna call them up and say apb no work. Edited January 20, 2020 by Deadliest Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fortune Runner 796 Posted January 19, 2020 I dont care where it is currently hosted since the fact is Little Orbit is working on the networking that they discussed with the community for a year or so now and its finally happening. If we can get a build for the Engine Upgrade as well that we can go live with , without bugs and with SPCT stamp of approval , then that should be even better for all of this.

I play with people from south america and they also have 225ms in LA districts. can you please stop saying waterfront is NY?????? 1 hour ago, Fortune Runner said: I dont care where it is currently hosted since the fact is Little Orbit is working on the networking that they discussed with the community for a year or so now and its finally happening.

vsb 6171 Posted January 20, 2020 (edited) do regional districts spin up according to connecting players' locations? i.e. are both servers LA because there's more west coast/asian/aussie players connected? Edited January 20, 2020 by Solamente typo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Do you understand that? Since the latest server shuffle before Xmas I haven't really been able to run missions. We need both NY and LA servers it seems. I'm in Australia. I average 220ms in a low population Financial server, most of the time. High latency is when it hits 250-300+. Swapping districts won't help you progress a contact in the district you just left due to high latency. That's my take on it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's my take on it. so whenever u get r255 you won't play apb anymore because "i can't level up contacts" ?? having fun is playing, not leveling up contacts. right now there aren't "NY and LA districts", it's just LA districts (i dont even care about FC).

First up, no. I was using that as an example. Right now I have 3 characters between r223 and r150. I'm concentrating on grinding JT for perma-weapons at the moment, but I'm much more of a RP freak really. I like playing my characters. When I max em out I'll buy more slots! Yes, playing is fun; but a certain level of playability is required for that. Right now it's not there for me and that's a shame, because it was about as good as it has ever been (since Singapore Han server under G1) between Halloween and Xmas. However, it is not fair of me to hit K and drop into a random team when hits aren't registering and I can't drive because the car controls lock for up to 5 seconds at random. Not remotely fair on other players, so I don't K up. Team work and strategy are supposed to be part of the fun too. I miss it. Don't get me wrong, I love this game to death. I wouldn't be concerned otherwise. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
