NA East Servers

Does anyone else feel it would be nice to get proper NA East Support so we dont have to deal with 90+ ping games all the time. This does affect some of the more fast paced parts of the game and its a shame that nothing aside from the basic thought of one has been done. I mean Latin America servers have something in Miami this should not be such a hard thing to fix.

I"m fine with 90 ping games, but when my ping goes 180+ - 2000 ping.... That is just something I can't deal with, and enjoy.

Hopefully they give in and get an NA East server up and running. Right now according to a red post (that I can't remember where was posted, I'll try to find it) they're trying to do something to their current NA servers so that East Coast players get a lower ping, because they're aware that a 90+ ping is unacceptable for games like LoL. I'm not really sure what upgrades they can do to lower the ping all that much, though. The ping can only get so low for someone who is 2500+ miles away from the servers.

Imho, up to 130 is playable. Maybe not in higher elos but if I had below 90 ping I'm having a good day, but my normal is 120-130 and I'm in Gold. From what I understand NA anywhere is better than most other regions so the fact you're complaining about 90+ ping is a bit.....unaware.

Apparently the servers are fixed since there is no alert messages on the client, but i'm still running a really high ping. Nice...

The problem with opening up an NA East Server is that it would force a dispersal of players from the centralized NA Server. Basically this would mean that if you have friends on the west coast and you live on the east coast, you can't play with them. For a country like the United States or Canada that spans from east coast to west coast, separating the country into east and west isn't a feasible solution or plan. What they are most likely working on is trying to centralize the servers into the Mid-West which would balance the ping between east and west, or they are trying to work on distributing server load more dynamically which should slightly lower ping on the east coast without increasing the ping on the west coast. Either way, this isn't an easy problem to solve, nor is it a cheap one.

By the way, as far as the actual ping value, 90 is perfectly playable, you really don't need 10-20 ping to play effectively. I regularly deal with around 83-108 and it is easily low enough to have good responsiveness and doesn't cause issues like rubber-banding or jumping.
