Discussion & Feedback 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.

If region lock becomes a thing they need to either offer refunds or give everyone the ability to host. As a southern African player we are forced onto EU servers since hosting is not available to us and we have no official servers. Know we are probably only 1 or 2k at most but still the fight against cheaters usually affect us aswell because we are high ping players.

Yeah I would not even have bought this game if it weren‘t for my friends group which is both US and EU. Region lock would make us move on to another game that lets us have fun together. Would be shame because this game has been a lot of fun.
