Don't get me wrong here. I have no issue with South America or any of the other nations around the world trying to log in but I do know that in most of the South American nations its very, very expensive to play any MMO due to high taxes. When a game goes F2P they jump at the opportunity to play it and rightfully so. But I do think it's contributing to unnecessary server load and lag.  
 
Further, can we just get a South American Server? It would probably rectify the overload.

			Yes, YES, and YES! This is in no way is meant to be hateful, but nothing turns me away from a F2P game then one filled with BR's. If only every company would give them their own servers. However I doubt they would make any money off them, as most BR's I've known in the past gloated on never buying anything,

			Me too If you are on an NA server you should be in NA

South america will never get its own servers.
Much like Oceanic servers, its never profitable.
 
The servers were at one point region locked to a degree, but its one of those things they have to be careful about because when you have a worldwide audience, locking someone in AU for example to EU servers would make the game completely unplayable (games have done this before "yer not murican so yer Europe"), where as on NA its completely fine latency wise.

			They didn't anticipate/prepare for this volume of players in general. We'd be having issues regardless of where the players are from.

I really think North American servers should be for the continent known as North America. And the same with Europe for Europeans.
----
			This is all from poor planning and prep from ncsoft and carbine and they both expect everyone to just hang on until they get it right but a lot of people won't

To be honest, I was surprised upon logging in my chat log wasn't spammed with spanish. Games like Archeage, it's crazy. Not that I mind other languages, but after near 45 minutes of nothing but something you don't understand it's just kinda, off-putting. Anyways, off point. I 100% think NA and EU servers should be region locked.

No, they shouldn't.
 
That said, I won't lie and say 90% of the bad experiences I've had with non-English speakers in MMOs have been from Brazil and Portugal, with the rest being from the Philippines and Russia.

How can you prepare for the volume of players if you have no method of ascertaining the demographics on foreign nations?
 
I'm certain they had an idea of how many North American and European players would be coming to the servers. But not Brazil.

Since there's no "global chat" you didn't see that.

I doubt this was the problem. I didn't see anyone speaking Portuguese in-game.
----
			Yes, absolutely! This is the one thing that ruins most MMOs.	
----
			Just curious... If some of these people cannot speak English, then how the hell do they read the quest text and communicate with NPCs?
