Hi. I'm stationed in Korea right now and I'm playing Rainbox Six 2 online (I have the US version purchased from amazon.com). The problem is all the game I join I have a red dot and I'm always lagging. If I host a game I have perfect connection but its not fair to the other players and they just end up leaving 'cause they lag. I know its cause I'm connecting to people in the United States all the way from Korea. So the question is...

I was browsing a site called www.yesasia.com and noticed they have Rainbow Six 2 "Asian Version". Does anyone know if I'll be connecting to the nearby counteries like Japan with this game or even locally in Korea? Here's the game:

http://global.yesasia.com/en/PrdDept.aspx/section-games/code-c/version-all/did-10539/fil-53/pid-1010061026/

I wanted to contact yesasia but they don't have any email contact except for the CEO. And I don't have a phone here to call the number they have.

Thanks.

No it doesnt matter which region you are in. What you should do to reduce your lag is find and add people who are in Asia to your friends list and start playing games with them. There is a forum somewhere that has lots of singaporean ppl listing their PS tags i just cant rmbr the name.

You should also try connecting at around 7pm+ Korean time and use [KOR] as a clan tag in all the games that allow it so that ppl in asia will add you to friends list. using this method i now play COD4,gta and resistance with Asians and it doesnt lag at all. You can also add me if you want(im in China) but i dont have R6v.
