Hello everyone! So I have a question about recent lobbies you may have found yourself in regarding Turf war, and maybe other modes if you want to share.
In the last two weeks or so, playing after 8PM my time (PST) I've been getting tossed into more and more Japanese lobbies. I live in the US, California to be specific, so I'm wondering if where I am explains this. Despite some of my friends calling me crazy for enjoying Japanese lobbies due to lag issues, I enjoy it since it feels strangely right, as this was the norm in Splatoon 1. ;) Plus it's good practice and Japanese Turf lobbies don't take 10 minutes just to find more people. Even so, it is a pretty odd development as we all know the game tries to pair you with people in your region.
So! Has anyone else been experiencing this? Do you think the player base has shrunk enough in the last three months to warrant the servers bringing in people from different regions?
