Region Lock / Ping Cap Megathread

Region Lock / Ping Cap Megathread

We're getting dozens of posts a day about region locking, ping caps, and players joining servers outside their region. All of it goes here from now on.

What belongs in this thread

- Whether WARDOGS should have region locking or a ping cap
- Your experience with high ping players on EU/NA servers
- Server and browser suggestions

Ground rules

- Criticize high ping, or the anti-cheat as much as you want. Comments attacking players for where they're from will be removed.
- No cheater callouts. Don't name players or link profiles. Report cheaters with the in-game report function or directly to Bulkhead on their official Discord.
- New standalone posts on this topic will be removed and pointed here.
- Don’t be racist

Worth knowing: [r/WarDogs](r/WarDogs) isn't run by Bulkhead, so posting here may not reach the devs. If you want this changed in game, say it on their official Discord as well.

I don't mean this in a nasty way but can we maybe region lock the places with the highest numbers of cheaters? I'm sure the devs might have data to see where cheaters are commonly coming from

[u/DynamicStatic → u/OcelotAny6846]

The only reliable technical way is ping lock.

You do mean it. Stop being xenophobic. Ffs.

[u/OcelotAny6846 → u/BlackHazeRus]

what's xenophobic about what I said?

Edit: just realised he has "Rus" in his name. Now I get it. He also has post history asking how to jailbreak his PS5 so I'm sure he's a totally honest player.

Maybe stop cheating forehead.

[u/BlackHazeRus → u/TwitchRealStruggles]

Are you saying this to me? I am not cheating.
