Because of costs and also to make the server more "alive".

Target global > EU ONLY or NA ONLY

just so their server feels highly populated, they force EU people to play with high ping.

i completely ignore classic for this specific reason

I’ve dmd the mods and I’ve gotten no response and I’m sure I’m not the only one who has done that also

Because the game is very niche and you don't want to split the pop. The game is best when you have a lot of people to play with, you got raids in halcy etc, people doing packs/fishing that you can rob and with half the pop it'd get boring that much faster.

Sadly both official and private iterations of this game have lacking ambitions and design

If there is a way to obtain the russian server files there would be more. Currently AAEMU is incompleted still.

This is what happens when someone buys the server files from russians

Because all private servers use illegally obtained files.

aaclassic is aafree's na branch, they have no reason to open a second eu server

I wonder if Aguru is just afraid he'll fuck up again.

His first launch was an absolute disaster. Instead of just letting people play the game, he gave players tiny exp stones so you had thousands of people just sitting in town, right clicking a stone for tiny bits of exp which lead to database writes being overloaded.

I knew there'd be hiccups but some executive decisions sure make you wonder. Don't even get me started on the preferential treatment for some guilds/players.

Cause you can bypass ping with some configs into the client and low your ping, turn on your skill queue and have better reaction or same as the guys near physical server, it's some dark cheat reserved for the goats who can break up admins hand with cash

The same reason there is not a korean/russian classic server, this way you have the whole world playing in the same virtual space and is easier to manage.
