Two separate regional brackets. EU, and US...
Ever consider having an Asia/AU Regional Bracket as well?
There's nothing to indicate that this tournament will be inclusive enough lag and FPS wise to allow Asia and Australia to play alongside. The issues in PC highlighted how bad cross regional connections can be. Now you expect to 'reward' people from two specific regions, without thought to Asia/AU region? |

Its prob just a timezone thing, for tournaments you'll be put on a dedicated node anyway. Its also a nice way to split it in 2 to format the matches  ALSO to put a bit of rivalry into the mix so that the EU players might actually get a challenge from their US brethren now that they arent getting held back by them... 
That I also don't get. CCP Shanghai runs DUST514. Shanghai is in Asia last I checked. |

THere's nearly 400 in TSOLE, Nyain San and other Asian Corps number in hundreds too, there are Australian Players not in TSOLE.... so yes, we aren't the 'largest' section of the community at large.. probably 10-15% at most... but ignoring 10-15% of a community as small and dwindling, and for that matter, especially from TSOLE, a very LOYAL community. Most of TSOLE has been here since Replication... and depite the slow progress, hold massive amounts of faith in CCP and DUST 514. |

You can still play it would just be in a EU / US "match". The trick is there just isnt THAT many AU/Asia corps, especially compared to the EU/US. Its understandable that CCP cant do it all. Im sure they would in a flash if it was feezable
TSOLE will be signing up for it.
Crippling lag or no, we'll be there representing some prtion of AU / Asia. We'd just like it to be evened out in the initial phases so the preliminary brackets we are facing AU / Asia corps, not EU / NA corps. |

Before you go OMG Serenity is a Chrina Only server.. Yes it is, a China server with 14,000 players online right now... And the Russian and Australian people wouldn't lag there. If there are political freedom concerns, just have those player bases petition their governments to surrender to China so they can join that server.
