Hi, so, i have a question. Before i buy the shadow pc. I already used shadow like months before and had no issues but sadly lost access to that email. Now i wanted to buy shadow again and noticed that trought the "shadow network" i got assigned to server "Dunkerque (FRDUN02)". I cant use that, there i got huge latency etc. Idk how to change it to "Frankfurt (DEFRA01)". For me the France server is unplayable.. Amy way to change server before i buy it? Or should i buy and then ask to be switched to Frankfurt?? Thanks to whoever helps me and srry for any typo error.

Blimey. Well then for Frankfurt you’d need a German account with details for somewhere near Frankfurt. German accounts get allocated to Frankfurt or Strasbourg, depending on where they are. — Pro Expert is exempt from this as that is only in Dunkirk no matter which regional account you make.

So i need to make a new account with german infos ? My plan is to buy shadow Gaming pro

#

To be assigned to Dunkirk you either ordered Pro Expert or created an account that is allocated there, like UK for example.

#

Yes you would need a new account. How you do this is up to you. Being that you’re in an unsupported country. I do not advise using shadow as such.

But how did i manage to make a uk account if im in serbia rn 😭

Dunno maybe you’re using a UK VPN and it auto to UK 🤷🏻‍♂️

Ironically i even made the acces with a new email and selected DE as region. And when i go to help chat to do the test i get the France region

tight crag
#

Not sure what you mean by do the test

pale walrus
#

Should i try as last resort a vpn ? Connected to DE ? Or buy it Anyway and ask to be switched?

tight crag
#

Never used the bot before so 🤷🏻‍♂️ bots are crap.

There’s no datacentre switch feature.

#

Which network test

pale walrus
#

This one, hold on

tight crag
#

There’s links and there’s the looking glass each with options to change datacentre

pale walrus
#

I dont understand how the looking glass works, srry 😭

tight crag
#

Share a screenshot of what you’re talking about. Cause I’m confused

pale walrus
#

Yes one sec

pale walrus
#

Sry for thr wait..

#

This is what i mean

#

DE store,, but still i get the Dunkirk data center

tight crag
#

Weird. No idea what that says though. Anyways I guess that’s just silly bot things.

pale walrus
#

I kinda solved it? I set everything with DE infos. Zip code etc and hope to be assigned to DE. This time the bot assigned the test network to Frankfurt

pale walrus
#

-i got assigned to Strasbourg. Like you said germany-Frankfurt/Strasbourg

ebon bone
#

That doesn’t mean you are in the dunkirk server

#

Go to German and you’ll see the German server there X)

pale walrus
#

Strasbourg its fine. Better then Dunkirk. I got 0.9 jitt here. On Dunkirk i have above 3 jitt and close to 100 ping

#

On Strasbourg i have 0.9 jitt and 25 or less ping

ebon bone
#

Ok, maybe you can ask to switch to the server in Germany though? Since your account is already in the country…
And FIY for that chatbot: the server it gives you is based on the language you select at the beginning

#

Or smith like that

#

I went in English and French and it gave me different links lol
