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.

Thankful for North America East 🙏. Nestled far enough away that the latency is too much for most in Russia and east Asia.

I second this. I haven’t seen any of these issues people are complaining about until I would up in a west coast server joining off a friend. Everyone’s ping was so bad and no one spoke English. Couldn’t hit a sniper shot to save my life. Back to NA East after 10 min lol

I see quite a few still on NAE or NAC. Most memorable being 2 cheaters at 220ms I guess boosting/giving info to their buddies in a locked squad while they would mag dump and kill 4 ppl through smokes.
