FC 26 Australian Servers - inadequate coverage for WA users.

I’m sure as you may know, Australia only has one FC server in Sydney. I live on the other side of the country. This results in 50+ match ping for every online game of ultimate team. I have stable, 500m/b download internet speed, a 100m/b upload speed. A high quality CAT6 wired connection to my PS5. This is more than sufficient for other online experiences. 
 
This latency reduces your FUT experience to a slow, delayed and unplayable experience. Passing lanes are marked and intercepted before you have time to choose a direction, which also means your players are not in the correct position soon enough. Defensively, your tackles are late every time and therefore useless. Using bruiser, it often doesn’t activate in time because of the delay. Dribbling is the same, every player is clunky and slow and technical dribbling results in heavy, long touches that get you dispossessed immediately. Fast players are unable to use their pace as the delay results in very slow acceleration and low top speed. A key part of fluid gameplay. 

As it stands, the game cannot be enjoyed with these issues due to a lack of required servers. 

We spend all this money on the game, simply to play how we want but are let down by the lack of adequate servers, depriving us of the smooth and fluid game play we are entitled to. 

I formally request that Australian servers are  expanded to cover the state of WA. This would significantly increase the enjoyment of players located there, expand the amount of potential matches and states like NT and SA would be close enough to benefit. It would also provide more coverage to Asian players and expands the Oceania region for faster and better matchmaking.
