Something needs to be done with the horrible ping for players in Asia. I am not the only one with this problem. A few of my friends as well are all suffering from this and it's affecting game play BIG time.
This has only started of late. After all the constant updates that are required, ping time is getting from bad to worse. So much so that I cant even play the game.
If any of the developer are reading this please do something about it. I for one have stopped buying platinum because I can't even get to enjoy the game now.
If any of you out there are having the same problems as I do, please post so that the developer know that it's not a one off issue. But something that is affecting a lot of us out there.
Thanks....

Sorry you are having trouble... Where are you located and what is your ping?

I am from Singapore. Ping ranges from 20000 - 150000 if not more. Get this kind of ping most of the time.
It's a great game you got here, but because of the ping it's making it very hard to play the game anymore.

In the Philippines you get from 300 - 1900... Though mostly I get 400 at the moment, it frequently rises to unplayable ping...
Why is ping starting to rise every other week or so? New players? I remember before, I get a range of 299-1300... but it rarely goes above 500 ping

Most of the time in the morning I get a ping of around 400- 2000, it will go crazy every now and than. But in the evening ping just goes crazy to the point it makes it impossible to play at all. Ping ranges from 10000- 50000 most of the time, this started happening about 1 -2 weeks ago before that it was still managable with ping going crazy once in awhile.
Oh and I am on WiFi most of the time in the evening, not on mobile broadband.

It's not just Asia, I'm getting pink spikes of 40k to 70k every 5 minutes and I'm in California, unplayable atm, maybe it's the rain.

Ping last evening the ping was really bad, it was in the 30k-40k region for a few hours. I just could not play at all.
Developers what's being done to address this?

Last time I used airport WiFi to play in China I had pings ranging 300-700, and spikes were fairly common. I also tried browsing other sites and app store, and the speed was really pretty fine, no big difference than playing from home in Sweden, where my ping rarely exceeds 400. Around 200 if I sit close to the router. In Helsinki Airport I can get up to 600, but it's rather stable. Playing with 3G results in spikes occasionally, but the average ping isn't high actually, around 400.
So, I dunno, maybe your WiFi strength, speed and opertator network plays a bigger role?
