New server to help connection problems (for asia)

Hi guys, I am new to the forums (no, not new to the game though, im a def elite) and I am sorry if the topic I am about to write has either been already posted by someone else and has been locked/dead.

Ok so I have seen others like me complaining about the connection. As you know SK has 2 main servers, US and EU, the main problem is in the South East Asia part. A decent number of players play from the South East Asia Countries like me, such as Singapore, Phillipines, Malaysia and the majority of them, from Australia. The servers SK provides only can allow people living near or in US/EU to have a good connection to the game, whereas anyone not living near it (such as asians) will have a weak connection.

Now what happens when one has a weak connection some of the better connection players ask. Many things can go wrong..such as:
Shield Delay, you hold up your shield before the enemy attacks you but you somewhat get hit.
"Movement" delay, you run away from an enemy just when it is about to shoot, on your screen you have escaped, but your "npc" is still at the enemy, so you get hurt.

These are just the main problems that happen when one has a weak connection. Not very fun to play when you have those problems right?

So OOO, I am not asking or demanding you to make an AU server, and you may already know of this situation(again, maybe someone already posted this kind of forum), but may I know if you have any plans of creating an AU server for South East Asian players?

Also, if there already is such a post in the forums "somewhere", feel free to comment and tell me below (no, I dont need a hundred people telling me that, just 1-5 will do). Also please read this topic carefully, I don't like seeing: "Stop demanding OOO for an AU server, its expensive" or stuff like that, I only asked if they had plans for an AU server.

Thanks for your co-operation! ^.^

gods ain't gonna help you, son.

suggestion subforum. it exists, use it.
an easter server would be an improvement for many, but it seems that OOO can't do it. many before you have asked for it and there was no answer.

Ok then..

Well, that's fine, if OOO cant make an AU server.
I guess like what you say Floerail, I will leave SK. OOO mark these words, an online puzzle game cant be an online puzzle game with such bad connection problems...
Quite upsetting, I loved the game, its physics and all...but if OOO cant make an AU server, whether its cause there is not enough money to establish it or I dont know what, then lets just say I will not look at how good the game itself is, as a bad connection will just pull down my good ratings on this game.

If you have bad connection, either suck it up or just surrender to it and get another game to play with. Once again I am so disappointed I am leaving, I loved the game and I know its deep inside special, but I can't play it..I will just go.

Well there are a lot of other games that don't have an AU or Asia server, and I'm also rather disappointed regardless. EVE Online. Planetside. So what makes SK so special it outrageously needs to comply with the requests of a few just to set up a server in their region?

What about South America? You get the point? It's just demand and supply factor.

I have written a number of

I have written a number of letters to OOO asking about an Austral Asian Server - standard reply : we understand your frustration since we are gamers ourselves but there is no server planned.
I doubt they understand and i think they underestimate the revenue that could come their way if they made one. Too many people will play only for a little while with that handicap and then move on to other games. Changing to the Asian server?? As you say English speaking people can't play due to language barriers and in addition to that i personally really want to keep playing with all the friends i made over the years.

@mummy

language barrier is almost same like community wall
bad server which make people outside us and eu cant enjoy their game fully is almost same like region restrict
and people who survive with red bar ping is almost same like people who use fake ip to enter game with region restrict

i still dont understand OOO though, why they not do anything about this for over 3 year.. did they dont know why people leave or not play this game other than limited play from elevator cost and short endgame content?

i would like if they remove eu server and not add asia server but make old server can stand outside of us without giving high delay to other country, this is more good than separate server which can cause bad community with each other when do mission (something like red knight want in us server, but blue knight refuse to play in us server and want to play in eu server because blue knight have less delay and lag there)

i dont know if our server is bad or not, but im pretty sure i'm right because in other game which is x6 time more heavier than sk i can play it fine without delay~
