Ok, I am pretty sure many people from Australia and Asia have complained about latency lag, and many people have also posted threads about it. And there could be an answer somewhere on the forums but to be honest I would rather just make another thread about it.
But to be real, it is not fair for us Australian people to have to play with constant 300 ping and getting hit by trojans when we are not even in its range, and get hit by traps when we are well and truly off them. I have read other threads and people have been saying that Spiral Knights might be releasing an Australian/Asian server, but I never knew that it was official. It isn't just me putting up with latency lag, it is basically everyone who doesn't live in the US or Europe. I know many people who have left the game because of this reason, and I myself quit a few years ago, and so did my brother and probably countless amounts of other people as well. It has been 5 years since this game was released and if Spiral Knights wants to keep their players, maybe creating an Oceanic server would bring people back to the game.
The game is basically unplayable and unenjoyable for the Australian and Asian people, because half of my time on Spiral Knights is having a shield in front of me. There isn't really a point to face monsters close up because anything you do, latency just throws you back in line of a trojans sword. Basically 80% of my deaths are just from latency lag, which as I said before, caused me to stop playing the game. There are also many other reasons why people left the game, such as lack of content for higher end players. And to be honest if the developers of SK want the game to keep running and have a large playerbase, I think it should add another server before even more people leave the game.
I live in asia but every time i check my server its usa or europe (constantly changing)For some reason
