The bug is simple, my client's server status says that singapore server is "available but heavy load" and my ping during game is about 100ms with a stable green dot, then it should be totally playable without lag, and i check how many players are on the server and only 8,000 players dont seem to be heavy load at all to me, YET I cant play the game because of a horrible lag that makes my shot come out of the barrel 2 seconds delay and sometimes the tank wont move forward until i have hit my W key about 3 times...

 

Then  i check the ANZ server, 1600 players... It seems to me i am being forced to play in the ANZ server because of the low pop in there, so instead of being asked politely whether or not i would like to move to ANZ server misteryous forces are TRYING to force me to move to ANZ server by making my game experience laggy on the singapore server...

 

They asked for a server themselves, now just play the game!!! Sorry but if i cant play in the singapore server for "mysterious lag reasons" i will just log in and not play at all, just sit in the garage and go do something else. 

 

My paranoid tin foil hat theory is based on the fact that whenever i log into the game, i am automatically transfered to ANZ server, even though my ping is 60ms better in the singapoure server... I didnt ask for an ANZ server, please refer the post where i had suggested that i wanted an ANZ server. Thank you...

 

PS. i have tried restarting my PC, restarting my connection, and the only thing that made my lag stop was moving to ANZ server. I am not gonna play there.

Those "mysterious forces" are either cable eating sharks or Indonesiam Pirates stealing bits of the cable for copper.

 

If you don't play on the Aussie server, I think nobody could care less.

cool then. i am happy to know i wont be missed in the aussie server, i almost believed that i would create an economic tsunami across australia for not wanting to play on the aussie server.

 

i dont play on the aussie server because why would i want 60ms extra ping? some people are fine not me. Also explain to me if the people are stealing cables or sharks eating it, why is my connection already okay again(playable no lag) only 1 hour after it went "laggy"?? How many cables are there between singapore and japan? if there is only one cable there is no way it could get "fixed" in only 1 hour...

never mind a second thought of how can it get "fixed in one hour" and i realized there must have some kind of grid that connect all cables, and the when one cable gets eaten by sharks, the ISP just pick an alternative route to make the connection possible again. But the problem is fixed so i am happy and lets move on

when i set the server selection to Auto 10/10 times i was sent to ANZ. er...

 

i use auto login mod, so it automatically pick the server auto-selection mode and throw me in the aussie server too...

Maybe the sharks think the cable looks like a giant Pocky stick. 

 

I don't really get the need to make such a fuss regarding  choices in servers. If one server is giving me issues, I just swap or stop playing for a couple.

but stop playing for a couple didnt fix it for me, i didnt know how long it would last the lag, thats why the post.

I play on both servers time to time.

SG server for good ping, and

AUS server for easy mode (just need a small lead compensation for the 200-300ms ping)

 

Its not that hard.

I love the stable low ping on the ANZ server, it makes the game so much less frustrating.  However level of general skill on the server must be the worst on any server.  I have never seen so much stupid so often.
