Need Indian / Middle East Servers

Hello Respawn / EA!

WE LOVE THIS GAME!

But boy oh boy do we need servers in India or Middle East.

It's a well known fact that ping is a huge issue when it comes to FPS games and for players sitting in India / Middle East, the best option is either Singapore or EU where we get 100ms+ and 150ms+ pings respectively.

How does this effect game-play?

  • Interactions are delayed - Picking up items, weapons, shields
  • Delay in doors opening / closing
  • Delay in opening supply bins
  • Bullet registry delayed
  • Delay in using hero skills
  • Delay in switching weapons
  • and the list goes on.....

The bottom line is that having a ping disadvantage is undeniably a huge drawback which is why we need servers in our region.

We have both AWS as well as Google cloud (both utilized by Multiplay) which makes setting up the servers feasible in our region.

We have 14000+ signatures (and comments) on a petition requesting servers in our region.

So what are we waiting for? Let's make this happen for all the players and fans in our region!

Sincerely,

A Dedicated Apex Player

  • EA really needs to do something about this quick, the player base is losing patience and interest because of these issues.

    Infrastructure already exist in India, so does the gamer base, not sure what EA is waiting for.

  • We are struggling in the game for the pings in India. We need servers here to play this game smoothly.
