I am in a US-WEST zone (western Montana) and I just played for about 40 minutes as a Vanu on EU1. It's worth noting that I have a pretty good connection, but the result was
little if any lag compared to my normal servers.
As far as I can tell, I can play on any server just fine. While there may be a slight impact, I can play on whichever server you guys are on. This goes for EU guys too- go ahead and create a character on US west and just try it for an hour, see how it goes!
Granted, I have a small but growing suspicion that all of the servers are actually in the same place somewhere in the US.
So, I think we can have our outfit:
‼- on
ANY SERVER, we may choose a server arbitrarily. Please test other servers to see if this is true though. I also recommend a backup server incase one is full- perhaps we can avoid this by not choosing server 1 of any region?
‼- We still need to agree on
FACTION. I think I'm starting to like TR? But the Vanu are cool too and I love the NC HA weapon. I can go any way.
‼- We need an
OUTFIT LEADER. Maybe they can choose an arbitrary faction and server. I think I may be up to the task myself, but other nominees are welcome! Girlinhat, perhaps. The outfit leader IIRC mainly just has administrative tasks; anyone can still be a squad leader and in charge of other people in combat.
‼- We agreed much earlier in the thread to just call the outfit
Bay12.
IF NOBODY OBJECTS, I'll assume we're okay with choosing a leader and have them just pick a faction/server?
Note: If I am the leader, I will choose the faction based on a short story contest. That is all.
