I pulled the trigger. New server regions. They're here.
The goal is to get more players together so the matchmaker has a better opportunity to do its thing, indicate where a specific gameserver is physically located, and hopefully make things a little more obvious to a new player (fewer fuzzy bunny expletives are typically good).
Here's the new region list:
- North America
- South America
- Asia-Oceania - or "Oceana" for those of us with fat finger syndrome ;)
- Europe
All gameservers (except private servers) should now start with the city (or state if it seemed more internationally obvious) in which they are physically located.
As a bonus, a new a drop-down menu shows up the first time you click "Play" that allows you to specify your matchmaking region. This becomes your default region.
Here's the new region selection:

Here's what the new region names look like in-game:

Feedback I'd like from you:
1. "Oregon" vs. "Portland" for the naming of the west coast server.
2. General impressions of the server region
3. Has performance seemed to change for you after this change?
