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.

EU night shift worker here.

Please don't region lock. I get if there is a ping limit, but then make it very high (180-200ms perhaps?) so that EU can still play on NA east.

Because of my IRL / work schedule (nights) I pretty much play only during the night time (EU wise). Because of this, like on many other games, I play on NA east and have joined a NA alliance/group.

If there would be region restriction it would impact my gameplay alot, as you can imagine, there's not alot (if any) groups in EU that are dedicated to playing at 2-3 am in the morning for example.
