Exactly , AWS is willing to host local servers but we are constantly ignored by ea/Respawn ,so much for customer service and satisfaction.

Respawn got into trouble with Titanfall 1 in South Africa, they never hosted local servers yet continued to market and sell the game here, and due to complaints to the local consumer commission, it generated a lot of friction (Yes we have a consumer commission, and yes they will bounce you for not supporting products you sell here.)
EA has always been awesome when it comes to South Africa with regards to hosting servers for their first party titles, so I imagine the lack of Titanfall 2 hosting in Africa is likely the result of extreme salt / apathy/cynicism towards Africa, on behalf of Respawn's network planner(s) or executive(s).
I'm fairly certain they're about one CCC filing away from having one of their games bounced from SA, again.
Strange bunch, that Respawn.
Let's give them a week from now and see if anything changes.
The South African Consumer Complaints Commission absolutely has teeth, and are extremely quick to help you out, I think it's time everyone here put their foot down to foreign companies trying to get as much money OUT of SA without putting anything INTO SA, be it greed, or plain general apathy towards Africa, this ongoing transaction should include providing servers by law, you can't market and sell these online experiences with servers hosted on the other end of the planet, it's only fair.
Also asking that even though this is a frustrating venture, that you'll all be cool and civil with the EA and Respawn CM teams, it's not them making these odd decisions.

Please EA we need african servers!! Cant find any games on bahrain playing with pc. On console yes but NOT on pc. I'm pretty sure there is a huge gaming population in africa, especially south africa. Why don't you guys keep 1 data centre in SA? It would be nice for a change playing on low ping.

We just need to find some bug that is activated by lag and they will do their absolute best to fix it, most probably even put servers closer.
the more game breaking the glitch the more likely theyre going to take it seriously
i mean cmon it took them a month to fix rampart going underneath the floor with her turret
theyre only now making revenants silence effect mirages swift mend passive.
are they gonna give it to wattson aswell when she gets the shield mending passive??
EA We are kindly asking for servers. please.

I just read this now after googling a problem.LOL i am a generation X apex player and in all my years i have learnt one thing,Big companies dont care about a small country like this.Its all about money and not losses.If a company in South africa take on the burden to have a server with there own finances only then will you get what you asked for.THats it

Feel free to let Apex Legends die in a burning fire with no backups of the files. Pass this on to the director and the developers. Thank you.
