Mind sharing what you highlighted to them? I might give them a call again and share any updates.

Just basically the fact that we are getting ridiculously high latencies on the japan servers and it clearly is unacceptable when competitors like Starhub, M1, MyRepublic etc. can provide better results to its customers. Threaten to move to competitor...

thanks. i'll get back here and update this post when i've contacted them. everyone else on singtel should do the same.

Guys, also go @SingtelSupport on Twitter to escalate this matter. I think it's clear now that Singtel is a major culprit. Help me bump this post. Thanks and best of luck for us all.

Battlefield has a loyal fanbase in SEA and South Asia region. But I feel like DICE has betrayed us. Way to neglect your customers.

I hope you do because then maybe we will then get SA servers.

Well, the new patch is live, and there are no new server locations to choose from. The rental server program still isn't live, so we'll just have to see how much choice there is in location. I get the feeling that we will just be renting servers in the places where the official servers already are, and that we will still be left out in the cold.

So rental servers is finally here (according to patch notes) .!! Anyone rented a server in SAE yet .. how is it ??

It doesn't appear to be live yet. Nothing available to buy in the store.

I asked if we could rent Singapore-based servers in the server rental program starting today.

Well, that settles it. No SEA servers for now.

M3teora

If he means that they will be adding servers for Singapore later, that's good news. The only question is when? We have been patiently waiting for a month now....

VaultFalcone

Really? So they're not adding SEA region when rental servers launch? Not officially supporting some region is already bad and now they're not going to provide some regions at the program's launch. We're in 2016 and providing a server for these regions shouldn't be a problem. Smh

Rolling out in locations where official servers are will give them some feedback as to how the user experience will be like. Hopefully it won't take them too long or worse, something bad happens and they decided it's best for them to stop renting out servers. Eg. If hackers still manage to run their injectors on rented servers and the developers have no way to prevent it even with the measures taken currently ie. this fiasco.

Time to refund this **** game..ain't fun for me playing with 150+ping on JAPANESE server as infy..keep dying behind cover and stuff....back to bf4 yay

MidgetForce

Bump for support and notification. I think its very ridiculous to not have local server support. I'm from Malaysia and playing on Japanese servers is a horrible experience. Im gonna wait for a few weeks more. If by December, there are still no SG or SEA servers, im gonna refund the game and say goodbye to Battlefield for good.

Jepettoo

Its still possible to get a refund, bought game before release and just got my refund for the game. No SEA servers and all the lies are unacceptable, it was no issue to get the refund. So do the same and all refund the game

Shouvik_XIII

I am not refunding yet, but I won't join back either until we got a SEA server.
