For the past few months of playing hawken, I continuously noticed people complaining about lag. I look at there ping and it is usually 200+. I ask them what country you from? (on an Australian server) most of them live Japan or Korea. They end up rage quitting the match and maybe some quit the game entirely. So, to play on the right servers click the view servers button and look for a server closer to you and I know some servers haven't got people playing on them but still if you join one people are bound to join.

So after my rant, I want to ask the devs to add a little tutorial to show how to choose the suitable server to that player.

Urrrrrrrrrrrbaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan! :D

 

I'm sorry to say this, but the dev's giving an option to allow which server to pick is not the problem. Why? Because the problem is actually elsewhere. D: The reason why we (Australians) are seeing so many people from Japan, Korean and other Asian players is in our servers (I use "our" very weakly in this context) is because new players just click the quick match function to enter games and since the new devs decided to stuff all of Asia, all of Australia and all the islands in between in one small tab called "Asia-Oceania", I think that is the problem. Seriously devs, you've got North America and South America but you cannot divide Oceania and Asia? Or Asia into smaller servers like China and Japan?

 

Maybe you a suggesting a filter for people like us who have to deal with this? Like filtering out Tokyo, Australian and Singapore servers? Sorry if I did misinterpret what you said. ^^;

DAWWWWWWN thats Pretty much what I'm trying to say :D. 

Just trying to get the Devs too know that people don't seem to know about the "view servers" button and think quick match is going to be suitable. they could even add a little warning sign saying "this server is far-away and might have lag" (obviously shorter and simpler"

 

I'm actually going to display some statistics on who plays on what servers (Asia/Oceania only).

 

To prove a point.

Nice to to see another Aussie on here, welcome to the forums mate!

 

I'm currently living in Texas (grew up near Warrnambool) so I haven't been on the Asia-Oceania servers, but I'd say that's a good idea. Just making the Server Browser button more noticeable would be a good addition as well.

Problem is that almost nobody plays in my region (Brazil), so I keep being forced to play in America's servers with hight ping, which screws up  the aim for TOW rocket and other weapons.
