The middle east region with most games have a high ping issue that make some games unplayable or give you a major disadvantage due to the delay we are forced to play on Eu servers that give us 200ms or more and that makes most games frustrating especially first person shooters timing is important you cannot enjoy the game or climb in competitive due to having this handicap rocket league made middle east servers and many other games and even fortnite why is blizzard not doing this there is thousands of middle eastren gamers who play a lot of blizzard games and pay for many things in those games since 2005 or even before why is blizzard neglecting the issue with such a big player base without any response or news?
I’m sure plopping some more regional servers in somewhere like Turkey wouldn’t hurt. Gamers around the world should be able to enjoy gaming in peace with reasonable pings, including the mid east.
PS; I love shwarmas

Get a better connection .i am even further away from servers but my ping never climbs up to 150 ms on European servers .
Yes, more servers please. Give russians also one, because they don’t speak english anyway, like us westerners.
Quite an ignorant reply. No offence, but “get a better connection” is such a western thing to say. Just expecting everyone around the world to have the luxury of calling up their local ISP and saying “hey, I want a better connection”.
It’s not that easy. Many in the mid east are already living with heavy internet censorship, speed capping, social media blocking evil governments who want internet tech to stay medievil so that people don’t have easy communication with each other. That’s why those governments get scared whenever people march in the streets so they block Twitter, cap internet speeds on purpose, and generally try to limit as much free speech and online communication as possible.
The logical thing that would come to mind would be for the multi-billion dollar developing company to invest in some better servers for their mid east gamers, hence why I recommended Turkey, because at least it’s a somewhat western, secular nation, even though it’s run by a fking moron.
If we were talking about Sweden, North American, Australia, etc, then sure “get a better connection” would be good advice.
Middle East countries have far better internet connections .also learn to quote the right person lol . You seem to have zero knowledge as Turkey is considered to be in Europe and not Middle East . Atleast take some geographic classes before you show your ignorance . Clueless people .
You are correct in one thing. I quoted the wrong person, I did indeed mean to say your comment was ignorant 
I also never said Turkey was in the middle east, if you paid attention when reading, I said Turkey would be a good place to install more servers because is basically in the middle east (except for Istanbul which is part of Europe) so geographically most of Turkey borders are in the middle east and servers there would help vastly reduce latency for gamers in the region. Turkey also doesn’t have the same restrictions on internet speeds as maybe some other neighboring countries in the middle east.

I don’t know for pc but for ps4 and Xbox one if you are playing from middle east your connection is routed through uae Dubai and you get less ping . I saw it in my friend’s home who has both consoles .
Also sorry for my previous outburst I was having a bad day .
Turkey is not a good option because it is more closer to Europe then Asia .
If on pc they introduce Dubai servers it will be much better .also the political restrictions that you are talking about .there is not a single restriction on any video game server which is operating from Dubai uae .so in my humble opinion it is a safe bet .
Sure, if we’re talking about Dubai, it’s like a European tourist resort, so that would be a good option for more servers. Hopefully it happens. No worries, we all have those days. Hope you have a good day.
