    As topic says.

    Apart from WOW, which MMO's have local servers?

    I've got some spare time, and have enjoyed MMO's in the past, so I figured it might be a nice way to spend it... but I'd like support a company with that supports Aus :)... so at this stage, my only requirement is "Australian Servers".

    Looks fun, but doesn't look like an MMORPG.

    I'm giving FF14 a chance on the Japanese servers for now

    Yup. very basic level up system that gives you access to unlocks. A game where you drink and yell at your mates over discord :)

    Wow, Blizzard has the only mmo hosted game server in Australia?

    No one else can think of anything else?

    SWTOR used to, but the population dropped, and I guess the demand wasn't worth the extra costs.

    This sub-forum is somewhat misnamed or was named in an era where other kinds of 'MMOG' were not yet popularised.

    For example World of Tanks and its relations are here (has Aus servers btw) but you can only consider it an MMO in the way the server is hosted and centrally match made sense. Otherwise it would categorise into the same pool as games like Fortnite, Overwatch, LoL etc. which it to say effectively any sort of big modern title.

    hmm planetside 2 is still around? i had a lot of fun in that years ago, may give it a little play for the memories. im guessing very few people play? just because i have not heard of it mentioned for years.

    i cant think of many mmo's with aussie servers.

    path of exile is worth a play if you are into diablo type games just because they have servers in melbourne.

    i think a few of the other games on the blizzard launcher other than wow also have aussie servers.

    PUGB does but thats shooters.

    im pretty sure none of the korean mmo's released in NA have aussie servers

    possibly eso or guildwars but i highly doubt it.

    I try and stay away from mmo's but its stupid like none of them have aussie servers anymore . i did dabble with felmyst tbc last week, US but sub 300ms , but that was more just for fun.

    GGE has an "Australian server" (it's not here) but it's a drug, so don't do it. I've relapsed several times. I've been clean since January.

    Only WoW mate in terms of MMOs. I've found Guild Wars 2 quite playable with US ping. Anything else not so much unfortunately.

    Nostralia for some classic WoW if you want, low population of about 200-250 actives, but good fun and regular BGs. Server based in Sydney.

    Oh tempted , how the hell is there an aussie server, thought that would get taken down instantly.
    Id love to raid nax , actually played a lot in vanilla but i would probably need a hand leveling lol

    I had been leveling on felmyst so I would probably just continue leveling there the ping is better than the US blizz servers during vanilla

    We have less people in this country than most major cities. Get over the entitlement.
    P.S it's a joke I want more AU servers!!
