Is anything being done to give us more servers or increase the number of players on these servers? Maybe install a high ping kicker and set it to 140ms.

Constantly, and I mean every single day from 6am - 7pm when the sun sets, our servers are full of American players who don't want to play in the dark. Sure, neither do I and I do the same thing when it's night here. However, American servers aren't limited to a mere 10 servers with a 50 player max on a each.

America has 400+ servers, so it's really NO issue at all for Australian players to join their servers. Want to play in the day time though? Good luck, you can't. You're basically restricted to playing on American servers during Australian night time as it's literally impossible to join a server that's got the Australian flag on it at the current time of 1:35pm

Talking to my friend on skype now, trying to enjoy this game with him -- He just saw NZ1 open up, within 5 seconds it was full 50/50. Seriously, can't even play in the day time on a server in MY country

It's up to the people who host the servers. The DayZ team don't host, and if they do it's probably a very small amount of servers. America has a population of 300 million, and New Zealand has a population of about 4 million, it just makes sense that more Americans would be hosting servers than New Zealanders. Nothing can really be done about it.

u da dumbbzzz.

The servers are NEVER full during the day. in fact NZ10 always has less than 10 people online before 1PM.

And even if there are 50/50 at peak hours, just spam enter until you get in. only takes 1 minute for someone to leave eventually.

None else complains about this, its just you mate. stop using the six launcher to get into servers and you wont fail.

Yeah, the best method for getting into a server is to spam enter in the server select screen (in-game) until you get a slot.

Actually people have been complaining, i agree with the OP. You have also disregared on major point in his argument. Americans joining Aus/NZ servers, thats one main reason they are always full, because they dont want to play in the dark, but you completely ignored that point.

Lol and it works the other way? It doesnt really matter if they play on our server or not, they have a massive lag disadvantage.

So they want to play on our servers, who the hell cares lmfao it only takes 1 minute to get into the game.

biggest annoyance is that i get ping kicked from NZ and AUS servers but i can pretty much join any American server and get a game, i'm in Brisbane btw. I don't even bother trying the Aussie or NZ servers anymore which is a bummer but wth.

Is the ping kick have to be so low that it does not let Aussie players on ? Thats with Telstra cable broadband and my ping is generally 220. Never noticed any lag when playing on the American servers and running with overseas players..heck i can even get on the brazil server or some of the UK ones and have no drama.[/align]

Whats with the Ami bashing anyway ?

Good lord, I wish this forum had an ignore user button at times...

Oh, wait, there is one. Awesome.

In any case, there are a few servers hosted down under that have a max ping of 180 ms, which keeps the majority of the Americans out. I'd like to see more, since there's plenty of American servers with offset times that allow playing in daytime while at night IRL.

Sadly, with our current craptastic internet, Australian servers are often laggier than American ones, so I find myself joining the US servers before I even try looking at Aus ones, especially since there's quite a few aussie servers that don't tell you what time zone they're playing in.

I don't even bother with the ANZ servers. I always red chain, lag out, and just general connection issues, if I EVER get into a game (not often give it's 50/50 almost always). They just feel like Home Brand servers to me.

Seattle and LA are good for Aus players.

Yawn. Another one of these threads.

US Servers perform better then Aus/NZ servers, go play on US servers, I havent touched a local server since i did. In fact a group of us got a server hosted in the US to play on.

Furthermore lag is not an issue since rego is client side, if you hit someone on your screen they sir are done; No matter how low or high your ping is. Though for the sake of this I feel US servers perform better then Aus/NZ servers anywhere up to 250ms.

Yeah they are always full but there are plenty of Yank servers to play on and to be honest, 200 ping in this game isn't that big of a deal. I can still easily get kills with that latency as it's more about seeing them first, not lighting fast reactions (assuming this is your concern with ping). Even with CoD4 servers I have to put up with 200+ ping and I still do well.

But I do understand, I would like to be able to play on an NZ server but they are always full.

A lot of shitty posts in this thread. Just glancing over it hurt my eyes.

BUT, I've never waited longer than 2 minutes of spamming enter to get on full servers. Someone is always logging off, getting kicked by battleye etc.

Also, the only servers I've ever seen full during the day are the Ausarma servers, which have an auto-kick on them for ping over 180 or 220, I forget. The On3 servers (and Orcon too, but I hates dem) ALWAYS have room.

I should know. I play this game way too fucking much.

Not being condescending but do you realise by spamming enter you are effectively DDoSing the server? I mean, I know it sucks waiting for an open slot and resisting the urge just to bash enter for a few minutes.

My ISP is actually Orcon so I would like to play on their servers but in my experience they are always full. Mind you, I am normally on around 9pm (GMT +12) till late, and I haven't actually been able to play for the last 2 days or so, so this may have changed.

Harsh reality is that if you just try to join every minute, the person spamming enter is always going to take the next available spot.

So its either use it or wait 20+ mins like OP trying to get into a server then whine about it on the forums.

I agree with OP we need more servers in AUS/NZ.

I have had problems with getting disconnects or being lag killed on the US servers. which is frustrating when you've just started getting going.

Plus as a newbie to Day Z, i would like to play "regular" servers to learn the game before dealing with the "veteran" servers where the zombies can climb ladders and open doors and whatever else makes them harder.

90% of the AUS/NZ Servers are all marked Veteran. so the one or two regulars are almost impossible to get into to play regularly.
