I am in the US. I have run a ping test along with speed tests and all is fine . I can play WOT on WG's servers and have no lag issue problems. WG has two US servers --east and west--and a EU server for WOT. I see that WG only has a EU server for WOWS and no US based servers. I can come on around 11 AM and play WOWS with some mild lag and the occasional boot to desktop,but other than that I can play the game normally. If I come on in the evening ,the lag is so bad on WOWS that some games I am lucky to move. I'm not sure if it is because the EU server is the problem since I am in the US since I see a lot of people in Sweden are having major lag issues also and much closer to the EU server than I am. I personally thing WG needs a US server since their EU server can't seem to handle the EU load little enough the US load.

Lately I have been getting booted to the desktop a couple times a game and also have occasional periods of a minute or so of when my ship stops moving while all else keeps functioning. I played a few games earlier today after the 5.0 update and didn't have many problems other than being booted to the desktop a couple times. Tonight I came on and not getting booted to the desktop but my ship stops and I can't steer the ship. Before WOWS was a bit annoying to play but now it is a pain to play.

I usually play WOT and rarely have any lag issues when playing that game. I recently was told that WOWS was up and running so installed it and have been playing for a few days now and the first day I played I got booted a couple times to the desktop but other than that no problems. The past two days, I am either getting booted to the desktop 3 times a game or seeing a LAG symbol by my ping,which is at a normal ping and I shouldn't have any lag. I have noticed that WOWS has only a EU server compared to WOT ,that has both US and EU servers,so since I am in the US I wonder if that may be a problem with my connection. I tried to play today in the early afternoon and the games start out alright but soon after my ship stops moving and I can't steer. I saw one destroyer go through an island. Somewhere WOWS has some issues that need to be worked on. Maybe having a US server for players not in the EU might help.
