I’m sure they have people that understand how far away South Africa is from Europe just fine. However, I bet they also have people that understand that they could only justify the initial setup costs, and ongoing operating costs of standing up a South African server instance if there were enough players there to warrant it.

That is a very good point, but it doesn’t foster good relationships with your customers does it? People in SA won’t buy it, cos hey, the lag makes it unplayable. It’s a catch 22 - better lag, more players in SA buy the game. it’s also better customer service, but Blizzard has failed miserably at that aspect for many years now imho.

i pondered that too, but I think it was clarified with this

So they’ve pretty much copied the fail approach of an unvalidated catch all console forum over in d2r land with players there once again unable to post in general / class forums. And this is even with the game linking to the battlenet account. What gives Blizz? The battlenet link appears sorted on the client now, but your forum service is still operating in this antiquated way.

mmm, weird. I cannot test, as I have several games on the PC platform, so can post everywhere. Weird.
