devs tho. I don't have bad ping on US servers even though I do live
in Europe, so I'm undecided which cluster to choose. What kind of
differences between versions can we expect? Different update
schedule and that's it?Tanitha: An educated *guess* would be, since the clan wars is being released
into beta with a euro only map for starters, clanwars beta will
have battles scheduled for the peak time of the server, IE USA
afternoons for the usa server, Euro afternoons for the euro
server.
So apart from pings, and languages, there is also clan war times to allow for.
If England/English pick USA servers they probably will have all the clanwars scheduled for when they are sleeping or at work.
If England/English pick the euro servers, they will play with less English speaking players, but clan wars beta will have battles in the euro timezone.
When a full world map comes out for clan wars release, then battles will not be scheduled for server time, and will instead be scheduled for the time zone (peak afternoon) of country you are attacking/defending. So a USA clan attacking Germany land would have the battles in Germany afternoon time zone. A USA clan attacking USA land the battles would be in USA peak time zones. So release, with a full world map, usa clans will mostly be owning usa land to keep battles in their time zone, Europe clans will own euro land to keep battles in their time zone. ETc..
The above is not official, clanwars is still being made and finished, but that's how i *guess* things will unfold.
I have tried to confirm the above as much as possible with admins.
