Recently it was mentioned that there wouldn't be and 3rd Party server hosting. Now if this is true would that mean that EA official servers wouldn't be available in South Africa?
I'd hate to refund an amazing game just because i cant play at low pings. Please provide us with information on this.
Thanks

It would be a sad day if EA does not include servers for Africa, especially when there has previously been an office in South Africa.
I understand that the yield was not profitable a few years back, but now the flow and speed of internet has increased in Africa the past year alone. So I hope that it is take into account at EA!!!
On another note, is if f***** up how Africa and Antarctica are categorized in the same group. Either open up servers in Africa or give 3rd party companies to hire through the supervision of EA or something, at least give an option!
I hope that the beta server status is not representative of the final product, but in case it is, time to NOT discriminate Africa, as EA have a fan base there, but if there are no options to play due to high ping then of course people are less inclined to play.
I am an expat in Africa and would really love to play BF1 and other EA games at a ping that is lower than 200. My true skills are not represented due to the lag I must endure.
*Food for thought!
