Devs – we need a way to change clusters
Allow players to choose their server. Here in NA, we need to be able to choose C0, C1, C2, or Auto.
This has happened several/many times before, but I’ll use last night as an example. My friend plays Blitz at my house.
- We have the same equipment
- We are plugged into the same wired network
- We are in the same battle together
I kept experiencing 9-15% LOSS making the game “unplayable”. By this I mean my tank is here, there, facing this way, that way, it’s not responding.... I'm driving through a mountain! Oh wait, now I'm over there! Did I get shot?
Meanwhile my friend is experiencing ~23ms ping and smooth game play.
We looked and he was on C0 while I was on C1. I restarted my game client multiple times and logged out and back in to no avail. My game client insisted on using the problematic C1. After probably 30 minutes, C1 starts working for me, but it was excruciating to play until then. If I could have simply chosen C0 or C2, I could have gotten away from the network or cluster problem.
I considered using a hosts file to remap login1<dot>wotblitz<dot>com to a non-blitz address so it would fail the client’s initial connection test. I will try this in the future. But what we really need is a simple radio button in the client UI to select between auto and the regional servers available to us when problems arise.
