They have the infrastructure already set up for Australian servers across all their games. Makes absolutely no sense for classic wow not to have Australian servers.

Dammrogue-dreadmaul · June 15, 2019, 3:23pm

Totally agree. Don’t see why they wouldn’t and 99% sure they will but would like to know officially

Severred-barthilas · June 16, 2019, 4:31am

Exactly this

Dammrogue-dreadmaul · June 17, 2019, 9:42am

Wooo I have jumped in. Thanks for the link

I come in and say hi occasionally but there too much going on to stick around and find where I left off!

Dammrogue-dreadmaul · June 19, 2019, 5:34am

I’ve been doing the same as well. Helps the bumps in a non bumpy way

Blacksire-khazgoroth · June 19, 2019, 8:24am

I come and check in every now and then too to see if there’s been any announcement, just a ‘yes’ or ‘no’ would be awesome. But mainly a ‘yes’

It would be good to hear even a confirmation of servers being denoted Oceanic at launch even if they do end up based in the US. The latency would be in no way ideal, but at least being denoted Oceanic leaves hope for the server data to be moved and hosted in Aus down the line, like the original OCE servers were for WoD.

“We can confirm there will be Oceanic Servers, we cannot confirm whether they will be Oceanic based as of yet.”… that’s all I’d like to hear.

It’s starting to become a concern that we haven’t heard anything yet, especially considering the increased communication from blizz on other issues.

And the fact that with all the test servers that went up today none of them were oceanic.

Myself and a few others have put in a lot of effort forming an Aussie guild for classic and I’m not sure what impact it would have if we didn’t get any. I don’t even know if I’d bother without them.

Been playing the stress test today 200 plus ping constant, is not enjoyable

Cleavner-illidan · June 20, 2019, 5:53am

No servers for you. Oceanic servers are a myth! A dream of the filthiest type, and a form of cheating

Xephtar-khazgoroth · June 20, 2019, 6:05am

Get off the forums and back to beta!

What is your ping in Beta?

Gibber-blackrock · June 20, 2019, 9:43am

Having OCE servers aren’t as important as having OCE servers located in Australia. That’s the confirmation I’m waiting for.

Katwillow-frostmourne · June 20, 2019, 10:37am

Tell that to Australian Justine Ruszczyk Damond.
Just trying to get help for sick friend, approached a police car that attended the 911 call, in bare feet and jammies, empty handed and quiet, and shot dead on sight.

Between 2012 and 2015, 15 Brits were murdered in the US, or about 5 per year.

Well with the EU news… hopefully we can get some clarification on Oceanic servers soon.

Infidel-barthilas · June 21, 2019, 4:42am

Gut feeling is they have blown the project budget and the Lead Dev’s have their hands tied, in regards to all external PO’s approvals.

Therefore,

No EU hardware upgrades
No China / Oceanic hardware upgrades

US server hardware upgrades to be approved only by project manager authority.

I hope I’m wrong…can’t play a warrior with 300ms…

I’m trying to stay hopeful that we will get Sydney servers. I prefer playing melee classes and it feels clunky on Los Angeles servers.

Dammrogue-dreadmaul · June 21, 2019, 7:37pm

Lets get a Melbourne server going as well even though it’s not in retail

Roam-hakkar · June 23, 2019, 7:39am

Wow, still no word on this?
