Another one of those blatantly obvious "WE SHOULD ANNOUNCE THIS CHANGE TO THE PLAYERBASE BEFORE IT GOES LIVE" decisions that … well, “small indie company” and all that.

The real reason was that U.S. players missed reading Aussie trash talk in BG chat. lol

Immedaitely hidden by community flags

Try again and answer the question please. Why would players WANT to play with bad ping? Why was this change not made clear before implementation.

Any competitively minded player would rather not play at all than play against NA players with 250+ ping. Terrible change that no one asked for.

Any comment on what region priority will look like -

ie. OCE > USW > USE servers for matchmaking? Seeing as USW was generally designated for OCE servers before we had a Sydney Data Centre and on average provides lower ping

Give us our own region then, we don’t want 200ms arenas. Have you ever played competitive Arena on 200ms? You literally lose games because of your latency it’s infuriating. The oceanic player base does not want this. I tell you what, if it’s not so bad. Why don’t when an OCE team queues into an NA team, make it a 50/50 chance of where the server is hosted and see how long it takes NA to complain and cancel their subscriptions.

Immediately locked threads too. gonna constantly repost my question.

Why would anyone want to intentionally play with significantly bad ping?

Why wasn’t this made known before it was implemented?

Please, Blizzard… Don’t do this.

You raise the price of Australian Sub supposedly for our oceanic servers, then you go and merge us with U.S Battlegroup.

There are currently 4 oceanic realms active on Classic at the moment. Those 4 are MORE than enough to see:

Another nice new feature we got from Activi$ion Blizz. The road to TBC Classic just keeps getting better and better.

lol just because you play alliance. quit saying there’s lag when there isn’t. the only other fix is to allow faction vs faction.
