Regional Servers

Hi there, i have to ask, how many Server Regions are there, and is it possible to switch your Region?

I am in Central Europe, and i seem to play a lot with players from eastern regions, which whom i often share no common language, and not even a common alphabet.

So i just saw someone who said he plays on a british server, and if thats true, it might just be more suitable for me, considering distance and being able to actually communicate with the match participants.

    This is a link that gives you a list of servers, if you scroll down a little:

    As for changing it, I admit I don't know, other than perhaps having a VPN?

    There are 2 ways to change server region, none of which are through a handy little widget on the menu.

    - Play using a VPN. You'll play on whatever server is closest to your VPN instead of you.

    - Play in a SWF (with friends, basically) where one of them is in a different location. If you all join that player, that player's location is used to find a server.

    For example on the second one, I have friends I play with sometimes in NA, one on East one on West. If they join me, we all play on either London or Frankfurt. If I join them, I play on whichever coast they're on (depending on the friend, obviously).

    Been VPNing to the Uk servers lately. Games are much nicer there. Less 5 gen tunneling and less toxicity. At least it feels like it.

    Usually i play in the central EU servers.

    Might actually give NA servers a go too. Ping might be terrible though.
