First of all, I’m not trying to play the victim, but reducing this entire situation to being “entirely my fault” is not fair. Yes, I suggested the idea, and my friend made his own decision. He is responsible for his actions, just like the developers are responsible for how they handled the situation. Blaming one person and ignoring all other factors is an oversimplification.
Regarding the response, I understand that it is not a confirmation. However, just because the wording is similar does not automatically mean the outcome will always be the same. In the end, it depends on the administration’s decisions, not our assumptions.
Also, if the developers had taken this issue seriously and addressed it back in 2025, none of this would have escalated. Ignoring the problem for so long is what caused things to get worse. If it had been handled clearly and properly from the beginning, we wouldn’t be here now.
The core issue is between my region and the game. I suffer from high ping and poor network performance, while you have a good connection. When I try to explain the problem, I’m told that the developers won’t listen to me because of past forum posts, even though I have been patient for over a year. I did everything that was asked of me. I even used a VPN as suggested, and when it turned out that it didn’t fix the issue, the blame was shifted onto me because I told my friend to try it as well.
In short: I showed proof of network issues and used a VPN to demonstrate that the problem is server-related or due to the lack of a proper server for our region. That alone supports the need for a dedicated server. Instead of addressing the root cause, we have been ignored since 2025. We are still waiting for a clear response and a real solution.
I am not denying my part in this, but I will not accept full responsibility for a long-standing technical issue that has not been resolved for years.
