Manifestation Wrote:I guess it still is but just that's like having an NA server in two locations so what would that have to do with the thoughts of a EU server not existing if EMS merged with GMS?
Also if AO did exist in GMS then I doubt that would take away from Neb profits....... The funded people would still buy them who buy nx and the people who can't won't.
El Nido was only on the East Coast for a few months before it got moved to the California server farm.
The cost of keeping it on the east coast (meaning: rent, electricity, internet, and some kind of tech staff) was not worth it.
If GMS and EMS combined (which the current notices do NOT indicate), it would also be in an attempt to cut costs, and I suspect they wouldn't want to keep a server and its attendant expenses in Europe.
GMS already serves people all over the world, anyway. A few more users compalining about their latency wouldn't bother NexonNA in the least.
Furthermore, if GMS and EMS combined, Nexon would want to use that opportunity to boost population sizes in the existing GMS servers while giving the Europeans more people to interact with as well. Keeping the European players on a European server would not really help with that.
