i live in germany and i want to join NA Server.
but everytime i do, i get put into EU server
It isn’t a bug. It is a new “feature”. Blizzard thinks that decreasing queue times is better than actually having an enjoyable game. When people stop playing I have a feeling that queue time argument will be irrelevant.
Regions are no longer seperated on the PC platform with the introduction of the Global Play update for BattleNet.
and how will the ping-difference be for EU and NA players? i had 1 game with a ping of 24 and another with a ping of 130. thats very inconsistent
Seems like a really bad change.
It will try to group people based on ping but it isn’t guaranteed to keep you on nearby servers for various different reasons. But it will result in more inconsistent gameplay for sure.
