I'm sure there was, but I was actually not searching for a topic like this one to sign, this one just happened to be here and most recent. I'm not in the habit of sifting through Sardelac posts and hoping there's a good suggestion in there somewhere. I open new posts that are relevant to my interests.

No way. The ping is much lower to play on a local server than a foreign one. This means everyone would have ~400ms ping except probably americans since the servers would be located there, and they're not the only ones in the world playing.

No thnx,

American districts are full of flamers and noobs.
I also like my average 32ms ping instead of the ~500ms I get in American districts.

Why not just have language districts?
If a lot of the European English speakers are going to the US districts now you may aswell accept it and it saves you on selecting districts.

Also, I would think that in the US there may be a fair amount of Spanish speakers who may be interested in a Spanish speaking district without having to travel to the European districts.
So there's my idea.
I herd I like to have a ping <100 so I like eurodistricts more than american districts. Ofc I only herd so. + american servers have AB players that actually think theyre better than you (@thegame), somehow.

Language districts killed the european servers. They have to remove european language districts, and leave english only. It's so hard to find groups in europe, because the players are separated to 7 language districts... So 4-5 players in each. If they would be in one dis, the party making would be more easier.
In america, there are no districts for languages. The ppl are in same dis, even if they speak spanish, portugal, french or something else. The party making is easy as hell. Thats why europeans going to us districts.

My guild tends to use the int'l district because we have members from all over the world, and that district seems to have the least lag in general when we play together.
I like the American district(s) for trading, however.
Putting all the English-speaking groups onto one server would make the lag a lot worse, I think, so I agree with some of the other posters here that doing this wouldn't necessarily benefit the community, and might make connectivity worse.

Ever thought of network latencies?

Because I have a Dutch ISP the pings within the Euro districts are far better than when I play in the US. As long as the latency issue is not addressed it is not wise to unite them imo.
