Why are there no local BF1 PC servers?

[ThatLucidGuy]

Hey forum.

Newbie here.

Just got BF1 for xmas but there are no local servers and I'm not sure how a 500ping affects my gameplay...

Are there any? And what's an ideal ping before you get killed for having a bad connection?

They announced that we getting local servers in 2017

If you get 500ms to international servers you will get 200-300ms to local servers. For the past few years adsl/fiber latencies has been around 300ms for the US and 200ms for the EU. All the servers I've played BF1 on were stable.

I managed to find one that was 180ms after arranging ping servers from fast too slow.

Is 180 decent?

180 is good for an International server. With a local server it should be around 50ms on average.

Thanks for the info you guys!

See you on the battlefield...

I get average 250ms to EU and 350ms, but unstable to NA with my Telkom LTE. NA server is rendered unplayable for me.

Yeah BfV looks way better than bf1

Network response time is much more important than access speed
