using european servers are really tilting and bad. i am not experiencing the real game while i am far from the server. I like the game and i wana play it at 20-30ms , not over 100-150ms which is a disgrace.
See other top games that has middle east servers : CSGO - valorant- fortnite- call of duty - rocket league - dota .
Why not WoW? i think you should add a server asap. Thanks

Are you willing to fund the purchase of the rack space in a middle eastern IX? Pay for their yearly peering fees? Pay the staff to manage said servers?
They are not going to open servers in a new geographical location, unless it makes economic sense to Blizzard to do so, because its a VERY expensive exercise.
they dont have to open a new branch in the middle east, just open a server and have customer service over the seas, dont over think it
Ah, another one that thinks that Blizzard just rents generic off the peg server hardware in a generic datacenter.
I got news.
They don’t.

why is it so hard for blizzard while it is so easy for dota csgo valorant fortnite?
Blizzard would not only need employees there 24/7 but a registered office there too.
I think the other companies already have offices there so it’s simple to add more games. Do you know what country their Middle Eastern servers are in? I don’t, are they even in the Middle East or do they just say that?
yes servers are in the middle east, i have 20-30ms playing fortnite (bahrain server) csgo is dubai , rocket league/dota 2 is also dubai i believe. bair in mind bahrain has an official aws hosting
Is this Captain Ayub from Fauda?
So anyway, back in 2005-6-7 and maybe in TBC too, Idr, my ping to Blizzard’s servers in Paris was like 200-300 MS. I’m in Greece. Now it’s like 63.
They do to place servers in a location, which needs staff, managers and an office. A huge outlay for someone to get a 50-100ms better connection. It does not make financial sense to put servers there.
Edit: I missed out the cost of the data connection to the internet.
He thinks that Blizzard are just going to colocate a generic server in a generic datacenter.
Not going to happen, Blizzard guard their Intellectual Property too much to risk a general server tech coming along and plugging a USB into it, and stealing the game code or binaries for reverse engineering.

I disagree, I think our friends in Mid East deserve to have decent ping and the cost required to do so is peanuts for a billion dollar company like Blizzard.
So what ping do they get now?
Sorry I just noticed it in the post, it would get them 100ms less, not worth the hundreds of thousands it would cost.
hi.ive been playing wow since 9 years ago (atleast) and still dont get it why would blizzard wont Add a Middle East server…do u have some sort of problem with Middle East ppl or something?..
Please read the posts above you, don’t necro threads.
Edit: Necro’d thread got moved instead of locked t_t
already read those.and i’m expecting a blue Post to answer people…not ignoring them for over a decade
because imagine putting a server everywhere when someone asks for a server for their region. true gamers learn to play with the ping.
People complaining about a little extra MS and it’s not even noticeable. I main on a US realm with 120ms constantly and I can barely tell the difference between that and the 25ms I get to my EU realm.
It’s noticeable mate.Do you Live in any middle east country atm? if you are not don’t Post nonsense Please.and if you enjoy playing with +200 ms you are most wellcome to come here ;).
Connecting from Europe to a US realm is just the same… Heck even further then Middle East to EU… Also because US and OCE share the same group finder I spend a good chunk of time connected to OCE instance realms with 350+ MS…
please tell me how much more disadvantaged you are and how “nonsense” you find that.
