Regional Servers?
Mainly just a quick query.
As a person who has played a few MMO's and being from an Oceaniac region. A big issue that comes with it is many MMO's not supplying Oceanic servers aswell to assist with our pings. Will AOC on release supply oceanic servers so that as Oceanic players we have the lower pings aswell, or will we be forced to play within another regions server increasing our ping and making it harder to dodge mechanics.
Examples of games that haven't supplied Oceanic servers and make me not want to play them include; FF14 ARR and Wildstar (of course Wildstar is closing down next month, but if it had Oceanic servers I would have still been playing it tbh). On release and only a few expansions ago, WOW never had "Oceanic" servers located close to them and was always stuck on NA ping, and since the implementation you often now see the top 10-100 race consistently having Oceanic guilds in them, which shows that large difference ping can make for us Oceanic players.

There is no region lock, so there is nothing to fix
