Oceanic servers

[darkterror-11350]

Hey everyone,

I haven’t seen an answer to this anywhere. I was just wondering if there are going to be oceanic serves for reforged? I’m keen to play competitive but 300ms sounds like nightmare

Cheers

Oceanic Servers?

I’ve been following the WC3 for a long time now, keeping up with the competitive scene and playing custom games, but have been put of from playing melee due to the connection limitations in Australia. I want to preorder Reforged, but I’d like to know if Oceanic servers will be a thing. Thank you for any assistance.

Oceanic Servers

This game needs oceanic servers, There is a large chuck of your playerbase you arent catering for and when you force an entire region onto terrible servers with a high ping expect those people to drop your game like a hot potato.

Oceanic Servers

Will we be getting oceanic servers? I’ve read that Starcraft remastered doesn’t have them but I know SC2 does.

WC3R Server/Realm finder for oceanic players

I’m from Australia and there is no “Oceanic Gateway” in the original WC3. But i assume i will get decent match making for me through the WC3R battle net client with other battle net client users, would match making work like in SC2 or HOTS in regards to Australian or global servers? And how would i match with players playing original WC3 who have specific Gateways versus me a WC3R battle net client player in Australia, would it even happen at all?

Please consider players Oceanic/South American players!

The Oceanic and South American community is large and active. There is a great competitive scene coming out of these regions, however without host bots these players cannot have fair games for tournaments etc. Is there any word on being able to host games in a similar way to how host bots used to allow? Otherwise it seems that South American/Oceania players are basically removed from the competitive scene again because of high ping.

Oceanic Servers

i understand removing all the bots that flooded the game list with rubbish games but how about the people that arent close to any of the blizzard servers? we had a single game up on our bot based in sydney so we could play with low ping now the lowest we can get is 400ms on the bliz servers. hope we can get a oceanic server before reforged comes out at the end of the year for all the new players coming in…

There should be an Oceanic (OCE) filter in custom games

Not sure why there isn’t one there already but it kinda looks like you’re trying to get rid of the different servers and just be one giant one which is fine. Perhaps you guys just haven’t gotten around to it yet but I hope you add an OCE filter option in the custom games section, since you provide oceanic servers for WoW, etc it should be the same here for us trying to filter the games for good ping. Speaking of ping, perhaps it would be a good idea to show ping as well to the server somewhere…

US West, US East, Asia, Europe?

Dont miss Oceania and South America servers, please!

Unplayable lag/ping built in?

Hopefully when the Re-Forged launches next year they use the Servers located in Australia to host games in Oceania.

Can we get South American servers?

Agreed! I see so many people of Oceania and South America asking a server to them dont have lag, please bring that <3

We must be able to choose server location when hosting

Having servers in Australia is critical for all Oceanic players. Not to mention RTS and MOBA games are highly dependent on having low latency.

An answer. Seen plenty of threads

[wtvr-11261]

what do you think will be any different about this thread, compared to all the others? you think Blizzard saw your specific account and thought they should answer since youre the 1000th person to ask this question?

[darkterror-11350]

The silence just seems baffling to me. The louder we are and the more threads that are made maybe they’ll take notice?

trust me, theres many other complaints that more people are being way louder about, and blizzard sure as aint listening

$$ is all they will listen to, and upgrading the servers is not cheap… they already scrapped so much content lol

[ExP-11212]

We need an Oceanic region or at least merge us close to American servers where the pings aren’t going to affect us as much. Please.

[ultra-11287]

Lack of OCE servers is pathetic

[ExP-11212]

We need an Oceanic server please! I’ve literally played one of my old custom games that has micro intensity in it and for some reason the units move smoother on there and the ping is always less then 200 with hardly delays. I want that experience in ladder!

[StylesBeyond-6145]

Why is Blizzard ignoring this? I am literally just bout to uninstall this and see if I can request a refund. They remaster the game, do a somewhat okay job, only for them to ruin there hard work by not adding in a decent server for a large community of OCE gamers. Pathetic from some “reputable” company.

[ViolateXx-1163]

@StylesBeyond - It has been a while since release , can you still request a refund?
I hate how they ignore this.

[Stral-11846]

Why? Why are there no oceanic servers? It’s been 4 years since this thread was created. If I open a multiplayer game with only bots it puts me on a 210 ping server. How is this acceptable? Reforged is a disgrace.

[lutz-21126]

oceanic server wont pay BLZ , thats why lol.

@Stral-11846

your question kinda answered itself.

The game isn’t popular enough to justify spending more money on infrastructure, especially when half of everyone refunded it years ago.

Bumping a 4 year old thread will not change anything. We don’t even have servers in places where we actually have players, much less oceania. Best option is the asia gateway.

Ultimately it doesn’t even really matter as matchmaking is global and you’re not going to have great pings in every game regardless.
