SG Testers Latency Experience During Alpha 2
Hi I am from Singapore, I want to buy the alpha 2 but was wandering what is the latency like? Is it still playable or it can get to a very high ping on certain scenarios? I played Guild Wars 2 and gotten like 180-200ms ping with MudFish. WOW i played on OCE server and got like 90-100ms ping which is in my opinion is quite stable and responsive. Can somebody share their experience in the testing servers for Ashes if they're from my region?

That said, a lot can still improve, we’re in Alpha, and Intrepid has mentioned that regional servers may come later, especially as they gather data on global interest and performance needs. Also, using services like MudFish or ExitLag may help improve your experience depending on the route.
If you’re okay with how GW2 feels at 180–200ms, you’ll likely find Ashes tolerable for now, but just know it’s not optimized yet.
Hope that helps, and fingers crossed for more server regions in the future!
