access servers

What countries is SOTA looking to host servers in?
when I first started UO I felt taken advantage of as 14 year old, not realising that when I bought the game, that the server was run from the other side of the world, and the environment I was in, had a second delay, where creations would spawn around me and kill me before I could even react, this killed the game play for me, and I eventually left the game, until 4 years later an Australian server was made.

I would be tempted to invest in the kick starter, but without a local server, I'm don't see any reason to.
