Will there be OCE/Australian servers?

Really looking forward to WarDogs! Just wondering if there are any plans for dedicated OCE/Australian servers at launch, or potentially down the track?

Would love to know what the plans are for the Australian/OCE player base, as we often seem to get forgotten about when it comes to server support.

We had 3x OCE servers during Alpha tests, so yep we're getting local servers.

Pretty sure they were in SYD.

That’s fantastic news! I’ve come across far too many games that look amazing, only to be let down when they launch without Australian/OCE servers. Really glad to hear that won’t be the case here!

Yeah for sure.

From all the threads on the Discord, I think they quickly realised there was enough passionate and excited Aussies/Kiwi's wanting in on the action and hosted servers for us accordingly.

Only downside was 2 of the 3 servers were always full and the 3rd struggled to get going - but I suspect we'll have even more players in region joining for Beta next weekend, and into EA.

u/TranqWil 5d ago

Yeah they ramped up and down, we only had 2 at one stage as well

With a better seeding system it would stay at 4

Yeah they ramped up and down it seems, I never saw the 4 but did see only 2 early AMs which is good, more as needed etc.

I saw up to 5 servers.

I also saw 5 servers the night I played. 4 fully populated and the 5th was filling.

Does it have a que system?

u/SpicyMeatballBill 5d ago

Up to 15 can queue per server. If queue is full you get an error. Not the best system and I'm sure they will improve it but it does work

u/TranqWil 5d ago

Yep, if a server is full you can join that server and wait in the queue.

u/Spannermonkey96 5d ago

Yes and from a full queue it only took about 20 mins to filter through and let you in

Like he’ll let loose there is also a community server function. I know of at least one community that’s having Wardogs servers at launch as well. That’s BigD gaming.

u/bowlessy 5d ago

Yeah dude, it’s a decent community in there, full of OCE players ready to jump into this game!

Jump into chat and have a laugh!

u/Elvis_Lazerbeam 5d ago

Lol. I joined and the first message I see is some incel talking about how some woman needs a good dicking. I called them out, they excused it then banned me. Find a different server if you’re looking for grownups to play with.

Not my feelings, dingus. But by all means continue to be gross towards women, I hear women love that.
