UPDATE Call of Duty: Black Ops Multiplayer Still Not Great For SEA Region



UPDATE: It has been nearly two months since I wrote this and guess what. Still no servers in the SEA region. Despite early promises by Gameservers.com that they will host a server in this region, it hasn't materialised. Take a note of this if you're planning on buying this game.

The latest of the big blockbuster Activision franchise, Call of Duty: Black Ops, recently got released to the usual fanfare. However, if you’re from South East Asia, you might want to know that at the moment, there aren’t any SEA based dedicated servers. Hosted by Gameservers.com, the only nearest servers are located at Australia or Japan. And they said having dedicated servers would be better. Now those that live in regions with no proper dedicated server get screwed. Gameserver.com are ‘promising’ a server for the SEA region but I’ll keep an eye out on this. I’ll post an update if there is new news on this. Video of multiplayer performance after the jump…

Thanks to sweetpuff on the LYN forums for the video.
