Source: Joystiq, SOE forum thread While people from different continents would undoubtedly be latency-disadvantaged when playing on foreign servers, totally segregating them like that just sounds dumb to me. (Then again, this IS Sony we're talking about.) Normally, I wouldn't care, but I am interested in the upcoming PlanetSide 2 beta, which uses SOE for obvious reasons. That game (at least its predecessor) lives and dies by a massive playerbase-the more in one area, the better. Otherwise, it has nothing to set itself apart from all the other FPSs out there.
