Looks like Blizzard just added a Taiwan Server, anyone have any input on this? Just saw it as I logged in.

[image loading]

About to go try it out.

EDIT : It seems you can't login to the Taiwan server at the moment.

Yes, there is Taiwan on the list.

Now we need a Peru server, win-win for peruvians and rest of the world :-)

how's latency between Taiwan in Mainland China?

Wondering if this is a compromise since they somehow can't have a server inside China itself.

Could you imagine the games. No game would go over 10 minutes on that server.

It's not being sold on the Chinese Battle.net and NetEase (basically Blizzard's agent in China) has explicitly stated that there's currently no plan to release SC:R in China.

Even if SC:R is released in China (it probably will, albeit at a later date) it will almost certainly be heavily censored, just like SC2. Personally, I'm okay with marines bleeding ink in SC2, but in BW that would be a dealbreaker.

Stupid decision. We have too many servers as is. Fix the damn latency issues and combine the servers, dont add in superfluous ones for every country or region. Taiwanese players cant use Fish or Asia for some reason? Wtf.

You know reckless bigotry against Taiwanese people will get you nowhere. There are many of us Taiwanese, and we will happily populate our server. We welcome you, too, as long you can respect other people and other servers.

I have nothing against Taiwanese people, Sen is a good friend of mine (comment was more of a joke).

I just find it a bit funny that Taiwan is getting their own server when Blizzard still hasn't merged US East and West into 1 server. Seems like their priorities aren't in order.. but i guess they have their own reasons.

Original Message From Mizconout:
Are you serious? You are going to publically attack me like that when he clearly took a shot at Taiwanese people? I'm gonna ask you very politely to check yourself and when you are done come back and have a civil conversation with me.


Lmfao, hes still convinced TT1 is a racist. Public shaming for fools, I say.

what we've got here, is a failya to communicate
-Cool Hand Luke, 1967

Guy seems nice tho. All i basically implied by my post is that Taiwan doesn't have a big player base in BW.. so i dunno how that equates to "attacking Taiwanese people".

If Blizzard wants to update their servers the first thing they should be doing is merging US West and East into 1 American server, people have been asking for that since the PTR.

What's strange I never created an account on Taiwenese server and when I typed my usual login for other gateways I could enter without registering. Did they merge something?

Earlier I couldn't see it on the server list either, but today it appeared. I guess Blizzard is testing something?

Played a few games on the server today, it's actually reasonably populated. Unfortunately most of the players are Korean so if you lag on fish you'll probably lag here as well.

Why would they need a language fix? They have the exact same written language.

According to Wikipedia,
There exist two standardised forms of the language, namely Putonghua in Mainland China and Guoyu in Taiwan. Aside from a number of differences in pronunciation and vocabulary, Putonghua is written using simplified Chinese characters (plus Hanyu Pinyin romanization for teaching), while Guoyu is written using traditional Chinese characters (plus Bopomofo for teaching). There are many characters that are identical between the two systems.
