the way the net code is for apb 

 

no

 

it wouldnt work

 

u forget apb was made in a time where regional servers were the only thing lol

Regional servers were never a requirement by the developers for any game. It's a technical design choice made early in the game's development, normally if the engine they are working with turns out to have unbearable netcode, they launch the game in a region. You can still have - get this - EU *district* servers and NA *district* servers.

 

Launching the game in other countries is normally done for political reasons, not technical reasons.

Right, this issue isn't to solve the matchmaking issue. This issue is to get a mission in a district you actually want to play in.

 

Both Citadel and Jericho have 'dry hours' where either Financial or Waterfront is completely dead.

 

This is aiming to solve that.

It wouldn't work "mergeing" imagine you had to play with 400 ping would you even login anymore?

 

The whole idea of "just throw everyone in 1 server" would (and has before) just make people log out without returning so it wouldn't even add more players if they get stuck with 400 ping.

 

 

Matt's idea for the future is 1 global server with Different pings per district (you know like every other game does already) so there would be a Financial-NA-1 and a Financial-EU-1 so on.

That's literally what I am proposing. Re-read my post please.

Desegregating threat would go further for both servers in regards to opening up the few viable districts still available on this 400 pop game, but we all know it will be another year at least before they make any movement towards fixing threat despite it being one of the biggest issues with the game.

There is 0 (zero) reason to have segregated districts on NA for example when there is barely enough people for one district, just let the remaining population play with each other. At least the dethreaters will get stomped by regular players again instead of them wiping out the rare new player to the game which causes further population drop.
