An Australian player of Dune: Awakening reported low population and limited player interaction on the Oceanic server, prompting a switch to North American servers despite higher latency of 150-170 ms. The move resulted in a noticeably more active game world and smooth PvE melee combat, highlighting that player density and engagement can outweigh ping concerns for gameplay quality. This experience has sparked community discussion about server choice and encouraged other Australian players to consider transfers to enhance their multiplayer experience.
