I would try to get involved in this but I can't imagine not having shitty games because of lag, with NA to EU it's not that noticeable but I can't imagine the frustration from wasting a little money and so much download time to get on and then have bad games. For those who can manage an okay ping rate to TW and KR then you some lucky fools (gime your internet plz!).

Yes I do, I'm sure it will fix itself in an hour or so, used to happen all the time to the WoW website.

thanks, seemed to of worked so far (waiting on the card to get in my account)... ahh now the hard decisions; to buy 2 of them and stockpile before prices/things change.. and if I should activate it today, so I can start laddering to get my MMR up to masters level ready for the reset on the 18th, and lose ~6 days only playing tw players.. hmmm.


on the reset your TW mmr will be wiped, this next week is pretty much best used for just getting used to the slight lag.

in 2 days time the full game will be nearly 50% off for the TW version, i'll probably be buying that on top of the 30 day i've got now


Why do you post stuff like this without actually reading.

Q. How will this affect my matchmaking rating (MMR)? Will I need additional placement matches?
A. Your MMR will be unaffected by region linking. Placement matches will be handled the same way for the start of Season 3 as they were for Season 2.

Is there some site you can test your ping to Taiwan with that could be a reliable measure of whether you'll have lag on the TW server?

I'm curious of that myself I have been wondering for a while how drastically my ping would change if I was connecting to some random place in the world, would be a great tool to know about.

I assume the KR servers are located new Seoul? http://speedtest.net has a base in Seoul to get somewhat of a look at how bad your ping would be.

Is the new dropdown list. No option for Battle.net anymore.

https://warcraft.tw/wtb/wow-transformcard.aspx is apparently where you're supposed to be able to convert your card, but it doesn't seem to be working.

Wow, sweet :D

Also when people say TW server, do they mean SEA?

No. TW's server was physically located in Seoul along with the KR server, so merging them is easy.

SEA is based in Singapore, so moving it to Seoul or vice versa would screw over a lot of people latency-wise. I think SEA will probably always be separate.

If anyone actually plays on KR server currently from the east coast, any way you could post your ping and how bad the latency is so some of us could compare?

I know just doing a speedtest I pinged 250ms. I know I've heard people say roughly 2 sec delay, but curious as to how the ping translates

230 ping, playable I guess? I wonder if thats one way or two way (there and back). 1/4 second delay is okay I guess, but 1/2 second delay makes me quite wary.

I actually got the 30 day option. The drop down menu had those three characters that were mentioned. However, it takes TW battle.net forever to load. It constantly gives me errors.

Can you or anyone else get it to load at all?
