Before you GMs make new items,levels,and all that lockdown stages.There is one thing more important,the connection.
There is alot of Spiral Knights player who live in Australia/Asia who is suffering insane delays,making it uncomfortable to play.
What?You guys expect we all go fly to US just to play this game?I actually fine with these lags,but it became more and more worse.FIX.THIS.OOO.If not,there will be alot of player quitting this game just because of stupid lags
Make Asian/Australian server!

@Duke: No need to be condescending O.o
@Rms - SK is actually a relatively small MMO, and as a result, Sega/OOO can't afford worldwide servers. There are servers in the US and Europe(I think?) because that's where the majority of the players are. If there was suddenly a large influx of Asian/Australian players, I doubt Sega/OOO would hesitate to set up new servers.
There probably won't be new servers in your area unless there's a region specific SK promo that draws thousands of players in your area :/

Think about it
Do you mail money to a famous pizza shop that's overseas so they can mail you a great pizza that becomes stone cold when it arrives at your door step? Do you keep paying them for cold pizza and hope one day they open a shop near you?
Or do you wait until they open a shop near you before you purchase?
I'm playing SK regardless of the red dot connection, not playing LD, shield/trap delay, hitting walls when cutting around corners, rubberbanded back into a trojan dash, once-in-a-while packet loss of over a minute... only because it's free (OOO sets up this system themselves to let some players trade time with other players' money).
If I pay, I expect quality service. Not a cold pizza.
Setting up the server is an investment for OOO. If they don't invest how do you think there's the US servers in the first place? If they want real business from Asia, they'd have to pay up front.
I am going to buy the expansion and some energy packs, but not until I see 3+ bars of ping.
I.ABUSE.CAPITALIZATION and punctual.u.a.tion,because I expect OOO to shell out tens of thousands of dollars in fees so that I can kill Royal Jelly quicker!
Come back with a decent argument and an actual suggestion and try again.
