Fortnite Servers in South Africa


Fortnite Servers in South Africa
The Issue
South African Players alway play on a EU Server which gives us a average ping of 250 which gives us players about a 2 sec delay
Microsoft Azure Cloud Servers have been launched in South Africa for so long now and Epic Games still is not using it to host Fortnite. All South African, Namibian, Botswana, Zimbabwean, Mozambican, Swazi and Mosotho can benefit from this! Azure will give us lower ping in SA. Epic Games still believes that their is not enough infrastructure in SA, so we have to prove to them that we do have everything we need by signing this petition.
If you do not understand what ping is:
Ping is the time it takes for your computers signal to reach the server. For example you are playing fortnite is South Africa and you have 200 ping and you are challenging some who live near the server that has 50 ping. And both of you physically press shoot at the same time, the person with the lower ping will kill you because his shot got to the server first.
