That's a bit difficult to say: HK servers will have an appropriate time zone for events, but may not be completely english, while the LA and NY servers are typically 100% english, but the timing of events are off. As for which level of server to choose, there's a debate there too. Older servers have more activity, but you're farther behind, whereas newer servers are nice to competitive sake, but may not last as long, due to less overall population. It's really a case of choosing what you want to put up with. Good luck! :)

i hoesntly would ask you to not play this * game lol

HK 110 is one of nearly completely english, well u just need to get in to english group theres a lot of them.

As an Aussie myself I would suggest to just go to HK servers yes is a lot that will speak a different languague however most still can speak english.

Heh, well like I told you this morning, there should be a decent English speaking community on all the HK servers. Sure you get your occasional conversations going on in tagalog, bahasa, mandarin, and other dialects, but unless you join a specific country based group, you should generally do ok.

Your decision should be whether or not to start on a new server and struggle together with similar leveled opponents and teammates (with high chance of it dying due to the mass churning out of servers weekly), or an older server where you are the whipping boy for all the high levels out there while you slowly level and enjoy the game.

IMO, community is what makes a person continue playing, and since you are planning to be f2p anyway, no matter where you go you wont be challenging much if at all (depending on whale count on that server), so try an older more established server. At worst, you pick up basic skills and knowledge, then you can decide to go complete competitively in a newer server if you feel like it.

Thanks for all the replies. Definitely some much sought after advice given :) Thanks especially Slacker when I randomly hit you up when you were doing some random dailys and you helped me out

As an Australian player i've been setup on server 26: Kisame since i started playing i'm from Melbourne and current the server is 2 hours behind and when Daylight sayings are in effect it was 3, it was the closest to y own time zone i could find and if you join there friend me and i'll guide you through some of the game (:
