I'm in South Africa. So either way, ping is a little rough. It's not unplayable on an official server, but if I were to get in a pvp-scenario the lag would be the end of me haha. Anyway, thanks for the answer!
Not entirely sure where to post this question, figured here'd be best;
Are there any plans in place to host official servers in other countries? I would want to play on an official, but the ping is a little rough for me at the moment.
