Singapore instances created from Australian realm

Hi all,

Since yesterday me and my mate noticed that our instances get created in Singapore realm (maybe 50% of the time) rather than Australian one.

1) Is this some covid cost saving or ddos attack? I dont think we can play on 200ms ping for long.

2) Is GGG aware of the issues and will it be resolved before league starts?

ps. i had disconnect yesterday and could not reconnect for some time as well so i suspect something with servers is going wrong.

Cheers

Same problem here.

I have "Australia" serer selected and keep getting sent to "Singapore".

Not really willing to play with the ping. I had a couple of late season goals but I guess I'll find something else to do.

Cheers!

this is happening to me also

Still waiting for the problem to be fixed :(

same issue for me, Australia gateway selected instances constantly routed to Singapore.

Same here. Having the same issue. Some maps is Australia some Singapore.

it's called 2load balancing".

if one realm is full or otherwise lacking capacity, new instances are created on neighbouring game servers (realms).

that's common practice. nothing unusual

ggg explained the load balancing mechanism some time ago, and it's global.

Even if this is true.

Whenever I logon, I end up in Singapore.

Early morning, Singapore.
Lunchtime, Singapore.
Afternoon, Singapore.
Prime time, Singapore.
Eleven PM, Singapore.

If it is "load balancing", there is some issue in how it is being applied or there is some issue with the Australian servers.

I've played since beta. Since 40/40 has been introduced I have got 36/40 in almost all of the leagues. I have never had this happen to me before.
