I've heard that excuse before, sadly, it does not reduce my ping nor does it make me happy.
I dont see why anyone in the USA or Europe would donate so we can have deds in australia which is why Im trying to get it happening myself as I know legions doesnt have a future here without one.We just need the donations. Can't pay for a server with dreams and fairy dust. =/
You have a lot to say on the matter for someone who hasnt offered to help pay for a ded here!I've heard that excuse before, sadly, it does not reduce my ping nor does it make me happy.
As a victim of ping racism (damn you East Coast!) I feel your pain. Hopefully we'll have a solution for you soon.I think my Legions days are numbered.
the trouble with someone hosting it at their house on a regular connection is the erratic ping, I have one of the best connections you cant get at home in aust and about half the ppl had ping jumping a lot, not a way to have a fair game unfortunately. Especially when my ping was zero, I almost felt guilty MA'ing the *chocolate cookies* out of ppl........almostReally sorry to hear that, bud. For what it's worth, we know it's an issue, and if there IS someone who'd be willing to host an Aussie server, I'm sure we'd be able to work something out, have them sign the NDA, etc. etc.

Would you be able to private message me or email me all the things needed done for someone to host there own Australian Dedicated server (NDA contract, minimum Dedicated server requirements (specs), etc)? and, would you need access to the Australian Dedicated server?
I know someone that might want to put one of there Dedicated servers to use in Australia, but he will most likely want admin privileges on the server (/kick, etc), I admit, I was so pissed last night, the awesome memory's of Legions with low-ping on IA have been ruined by high-ping with Legions: Overdrive, If you (the Legions team) are not interested can you at least let me know.
Edit - I've talked with him again today and he is still interested in setting up a Legions Dedicated server for Australia.
Edit - I told him about the NDA and he said if theres an NDA included he wont be doing it. I guess that's it then, all over.
I am in Adelaide (south coast) and I ping 130 to Singapore and while playable it is far from acceptable and Im not really willing to pay for that kind of ping for a game as fast as Legions, also there are a lot of players in that region that ping unusually high to Singapore, like Karnage who is in Korea which is much closer than me and he pings 250+.Wouldn't it make sense to upgrade/buy a better Singapore server that will meet the requirements of a vast majority of Australasian players?
I may not have offered to help with payments but at least I did not lie like those 6-7 other people did about helping out with payments and then not paying.You have a lot to say on the matter for someone who hasnt offered to help pay for a ded here!
Thats likely to happen in the beginning however most of the players you mention dont play because they are sick of nothing happening with legions so when we start seeing new content players will return, its just been so long since legions went positively forward that ppl are fed up but they still love the game in that special z axis kinda way.Are there enough Australian players to warrant getting an Australian server? Let's say we do get one. We're all happy, but only say 5 or 6 of us are in the server say when it first gets here
Yes, yes you are!I may be a tad pessimistic. If so please feel free to prove me wrong. I'd love to have an Australian server but only if we can play some quality CTF!!
Haha thats trueI may not have offered to help with payments but at least I did not lie like those 6-7 other people did about helping out with payments and then not paying.
Have you found any possible servers?when a server was in sydney the only ppl who pinged over a 100 were oca and nighthawk in WA, myself in Adelaide it was about 70-80 ms.
I tried to get a server here a number of times, Ive given up on the idea as no one is serious enuf about legions here, if player hosting ever happens that is about the only chance of a ded here. By that time I dont think there will be enuf Aussies left to care.
Even I have grown weary of the C grade level of games happening on our side of the world and unless Im up for DM I bother less and less with legions nowadays.
save me tribes ascend, your my only hope....
