www.runescape.com wrote: Recently, we launched 22 new worlds to cater for player growth in Australia, Belgium, Brazil, Denmark, Germany, Ireland, Mexico, Netherlands and New Zealand. The 22 new worlds also host many of our popular activities, such as Barbarian Assault, Castle Wars, Clan Wars, Fist of Guthix, LootShare, Pest Control, F2P trade, TzHaar Fight Pits and Vinesweeper. More worlds will be added as we expand into more countries. Please visit the Themed World page for information on themes of these new worlds. http://news.runescape.com/newsitem.ws?id=1349 What I would like to know, why does it look like there are only 5 new ones, but the rest just are location changes? :S If it's so, "We've removed 17 servers and added 22 new ones." Would of been more accurate. -_- |

Not sure how much this will help the people who live closer to the servers, but unless your connection really blows, I doubt you'll notice much of a difference. I'm all for more players, but I think they'll have more success with advertising online or on Television more than just adding new worlds. After all, if you don't know it's here to begin with, why would you come? |

Well, there are more lootshare worlds. For God Wars hunters, they could get more time on getting kills rather than switching worlds and crashing. |

Never bad to add new servers. Good update for the people who live in those countries. |

Personally I think it makes players from different countries feel more welcome, creating a feeling on international unity or something, not just a british/american/aussie game.

After all, if you don't know it's here to begin with, why would you come? I agree but does Jagex really have a big enough advertising budget to have Tv ads? On topic: I don't like how they worded this update, pretty misleading but at least europe and southamerica have closer servers. I think they'll have to include a spanish/portugues version of rs if they want to expand into south america more and a french/italian version for more expansion in europe. |

Always better to have more servers. But as Warren points out Jagex's claims were a little misleading. |

I...really don't know what to rate this update.  It's always good to have more worlds, but we really don't need any more. |
