Loadout Gets Asia Server!




Loadout, A third-person online shooter was released early this year (finally) and since then, the game has been one of the more popular in the steam. I guess what makes it so popular is that it's a unique free to play game because it's not Pay-To-Win. It really isn't. You only use real money to buy your character better clothes or funnier taunts.

But that's not what this post is about. I've been following this game before the beta even came out. What got me interested was the fun high-octane gameplay, but what ultimately got me set on wanting to play this game was that it was going to have an Asian server. Asian servers are a rarity in Steam online games. To this day, the only - international - online game that I've played with a dedicated Asian server is Hawken which was also recently released on Steam. So naturally, when the game publicly launched on Steam and I didn't find any sign of the Asian Server, I was very dissapointed, especially with all the connection issues. 

Now, that's all changed, finding games don't take, and I quote the game here, "average wait time of 2 minutes", (which is absolutely insane) and the new Asian server which was implemented gets players in the Asia region about 50 ms ping or less. Lower ping is always a huge upside in any online shooter and it's good that Loadout realises this and has taken that extra effort in giving Asian gamers a chance to enjoy this game. 

You can play Loadout for free on Steam.
