    Just curious what ping do you guys play at?
    I personally play at 350 ms ping.
    Playing with such high ping is not the best experience, especially when dealing with fast yellow ships. High latency makes them almost unhittable.

    Is there any possibility for rovio to set up some new servers across the world to make the game more playable? What do you guys think?
    Personally I think it would be nice if this game has a dedicated server for South East Asia region (I live here), it can potentially reduce the ping from 350 ms to about 100 ms, it will make the game much more playable.

    Having geographically distributed servers only matters when all of the players in a match are from the same region. In other words: having a South East Asia server would mean the matchmaking could have to only arrange matches among the asian players. If an american player and an asian player play against each other it doesn't matter where the server is because there is always latency between the players.

    Many realtime online games have chosen this segregation of players based their geographical location. With Battle Bay we wanted to make a global game. Having the segregation would also be difficult with a game like Battle Bay which has progression because matchmaking requires so much more population to work, and the game could not realistically work with regional servers.

    300+ ms here too! And I also live in South-East Asia :) Doesn't seem that bad... or maybe it's because I have never experienced 100 ms ping so I don't know ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    340-360ms most of the time, I get 240ms once in a blue moon, but under 200ms? Never. Lol

    I get 190-240 in Pune. Playing on data network always above 300 not on WiFi. WiFi gives better ping. Try using hotspot from one to other.

    Does the ping differ from when you're battling and when you're not?

    Ping differs every second. It maybe 200 when you start the battle and then shoot up to 600 in battle. Its dynamic. Though there is window like for stable connection here it varies between 190 to 300

    People could try using a VPN, it won't magically make latency dissappear, but a good one could help you find a better route to the battlebay server which can help alot.
