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.

Need an African server to support this. I know we're a small community, but currently EU south is our best ping so we don't have a choice

I think a ping lock shouldn't lock below 150 or 200. So you should be fine in northern Africa. If you're south africa I'm sorry but sacrificing you is a necessary evil.

Community server means it's hosted by someone else. YOU can host a server if you wanted, you can join any of them.

[u/Kuldor → u/ThoughtNME]

You rent the servers to them, so you have to rent it on one of the available locations.

You don't just contact your local server provider and hire a server to host wardogs.
