Can We Please Get A NA North or NA East Server?

FutureFray·Sep 27, 2014·4 votes·720 views

Okay , so I live in South Western Ontario, Canada, and I was wondering if it would be possible for Riot to get a new server in the North Eastern United states. I'm tired of playing with a constant 85-120 ping. If we could get a server up north that'd be great, because improving people's ping will also help their play in game. Some possible locations would be Chicago, Illinois, or Washington, D.C, or maybe even Toronto, Ontario. Riot if your reading this, won't you please help us northerners out.

Sincerely, FutureFray

Yeah, but I think they plan to move the servers to Chicago last I heard.

Dude, its not the ping. I usually get 64 ping, pretty good. But occasionally I get abd ping, for what ever reason. It gets up to around 110. When I play at 110 ping, I can still not notice a delay in the time. I'm the guy who can see the difference between each frame in a 60 frames per second movie. If I can't notice the delay, neither can you. Stop using the psychological defense mechanism known as displacement of blame and start owning up to the fact that you are at the level of skill you deserve.

Okay, I like what you are implying with this statement...man up, you suck.

We could all learn that...but...

If you can't tell the difference from 64ms and 110ms... umm.. well...

That is really strange, because it is a very obvious difference.

You are correct, there is a noticable difference, I have played a few games since then and paid close attention. But I haven't seen much drop in performance, as long as I don't play timing crucial roles like ADC. If all I have to do is dodge a skill shot, (like support), or land one, I can easily judge the enemy player's action, and move accordingly. I can't dodge blind skill shots, like a morg snare flying out of a blind bush, but lets face it, I should've warded that bush anyways. Hope this helps clarify my ridiculously out of touch previous post.

Hi, You are in bronze. You would not notice anything. Actually, fps vs ping is quite different. The comparison is extremely irrelevant to each other. If you have to ask me why, you shouldn't even be talking. :)

I never said anything about FPS, and FPS isn't relevant. What people are complaining about is the delay between click and response in game. Your ping(measured in milliseconds) will tell you what the delay is exactly. When I mentioned Frames per second, I was merely giving an example of my percptive rate, which validates my observations. Now that you ( and I am assuming here) understand me, you may make another comment which actually pertains to hwat I said.

Washington servers would give me under 40 ping. But riot hates having good servers. isntead they put it in shit ass florida where the connection is gold awful just like NA west. the land lines to west/florida are fucked up half the time you hop through laggy connections all god damn day. Its disgusting. on LAN i go from 63-100+ ping on NA i go from 80+-200+ ping its like what the fuck? I play on EUW with solid 120-130 ping all game. But for some stupid reason NA/LAN lag their asses off? So sick of being the unimportant USA east. So sick of it Lol it was old in season one when we asked for USA east server. Now Its just pathetic.
