Does it say what ping you're getting from this server in the US? depends what side of us i get, ranges between 120 and 260. sometimes i get EU connections, like 60-80 ping Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Netduma Fraser 11,266 Posted February 11 Okay so if you use Polygon mode and just put a polygon of that EU area can you force that each time without the US servers trying to connect to you? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Netduma Fraser 11,266 Posted February 12 It seems to really want to put you on the US servers. If you just leave it searching for EU do you ever get a game? If so how long does it take? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Netduma Liam 201 Posted February 12 Every time you connect to a US server, can you manually block it in Geo-filter? Hopefully this means you'll get put on the EU server every time eventually. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Netduma Liam 201 Posted February 12 I see, thanks. Could you instead try setting your Radius out in the middle of the ocean as small as it can be, and set ping assist to 25-30, such that you are only connecting to servers identified by ping assist. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Netduma Liam 201 Posted February 12 At the very least, close the game fully on the Playstation, but rebooting the console will also be fine! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scrubosaurus 59 Posted February 12 after some tests i got some connections to North EU (around 70 ping), south America (200) and Spain (20) in the map, the spain one shows has assisted ping, so that is working, i set it up to 30 ping. but still finds lots of matches outside that limit ping Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Netduma Fraser 11,266 Posted February 12 Okay when you connect to a high ping one, block it using the ping panel, turn off the game/turn off the console then wait 2 minutes and boot up and try again. Keep repeating this process and it should get better. 1 ONEovFOUR reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

scrubosaurus 59 Posted February 14 just a question, is this configured correct? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Netduma Fraser 11,266 Posted February 14 That's fine yes but you only need one or the other enabled, otherwise they're both doing the same thing and maybe competing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
