BLACK OPS 6 BETA + NEW WARZONE AND FULL GAME RELEASE


Recommended Posts

I was wondering if the netduma will be updated for the beta and new release of the game? Or should we just keep playing as call of duty (series) ?

geo filtering isnt working for me on the beta currently under the call of duty filter so fingers crossed for an update/fix. it definitely still works on current call of duty though

Try this:

  1. Quit the application/game/client completely
  2. Remove device from the Geo-Filter
  3. Give PC PlayStation Device Type in the Device Manager
  4. Resync from the Geo-Filter Map menu
  5. Re-add the device to the Geo-Filter with the manual option
  6. Set up the Geo-Filter how you like
  7. Wait 2 minutes
  8. Boot up application/game/client

Then see if it works.

Thanks for the quick reply! - I just tried but still not having any luck. My search just hangs and doesnt actually start searching for any game. As I said, it still works on the current CoD but no luck on the beta. I'm on PC using the Battle.net version

Pretty much *all* servers in BO6 appear as 'googleusercontent.com' for me and are marked as peer.

Peer is an easy fix but that's good to know, thanks!

So interestingly, I was having Geofilter issues yesterday as well.  Things seemed to be operating pretty well, but I can't monitor it as I used to because firmware v4.0.236 constantly logs my iPad out and I have to relogin almost every 2-3 minutes which is a pain. Now instead of monitoring while I play I typically check when there is an issue. Also, I get an error message every couple of days when I try to log in that it can't connect to DumaOS and I have to restart the router, which isn't just an added complaint but is also relevant to my experience in night 1 of the BO6 beta. I haven't played COD in a week or so, so I don't know if this is a brand new issue, but it was brand new to me.

So starting around 2AM ET, I was curious about what was going on with connectivity during the beta and if I was still connecting solely to the Atlanta server so I tried to log in and of course got the stupid error that forced me to restart the router if I wanted to see what was happening. I told my friend/party mate that I was going to reboot and rebooted both my PS5 and my NetDuma. After reboot I logged in and partied back up with my friend. I logged in to the DumaOS and started the game, partied up with my friend and began my search for a game.

First think I noticed is that I was being placed on a Ft. Worth, Texas server for search, which is strange because it is outside the geofilter range, and I used to connect to a server labeled "Oklahoma" for that. What happened next was nuts - we connected to a server in Tokyo. Now that's basically on the entirely opposite side of the world from me and is obviously outside of the geofilter area I have setup. The giveaway that it wasn't a mislabeled server was that the names were all in asian character sets or there were a number of clan tags like [Korea] etc. We definitely weren't in the US.  Lag was reported at 150ms and it was hilarious watching the bullets start reporting hits all at once after half a mag was dumped into someone. We continued to connect to Tokyo exclusively for over an hour. I started to wonder if Activi$ion had determined a way to punish Duma users (since they aren't spending their time or resources fixing the prevalent in-game cheating issues). We moved the party lead over to my friend to see how things were working and the system looked massively confused and wouldn't find us a lobby. Once I turned off geofiltering we started connecting up and down the east coast again and getting the lag-based matchmaking experience Activi$ion wants to provide.

Not sure if the matchmaking servers have changed up the algorithm, if Activi$ion has found a way to punish Duma users (like they do with shadowban lobbies), or they were doing some kind of funky testing since its the beta. Seeing others finding geofilter issues like I am starts to make me think one or more of those things are true.

Hopefully this information will be helping in tracking down the issue, its one that we need fixed pretty quickly as their matchmaking experience makes the game feel like a frustrating pile of garbage. The Duma is the only thing that makes the game playable, please fix!

Still happens today. I seem always to be in Tokyo, but if I turn off the Geofence I get East Coast servers.

Do we know where the servers are in the US (which cities)? I am not getting any pings in Atlanta now and imagine that maybe there aren't servers inside my geofilter.

Further update: Expanded my geofilter to include Washington (DC) and then started playing on Washington's server every time, I still always get matchmaking from Tokyo. I experimented by closing Washington DC out of the geofilter and I suddenly started connecting in Savannah, GA exclusively for the entirety of the night (at least 4 hours). Seeing the servers in the pic on occasion, and very rarely I'll see other servers like Atlanta, Miami, and Illinois as I would expect from prior titles.  Something is very weird with the servers in BO6 compared to previous titles.

You won't be being punished for using the router, I would suggest:

  • Disable GeoLatency
  • Disable PingAssist (set it to 0,0)
  • Enable Strict Mode
  • Disable Fast Search
  • Use Simple instead of Custom radius

Then restart game or wait 10 minutes (in the lobby in the game). If that doesn't work, reboot PC/Console and this will help with keeping it in the radius. If it's still happening then it's something we'll find during testing and will make any necessary cloud updates to adjust it.

I have to set filter size to that (screenshot). If i don't do it, BO6 beta will stop at black sreen and I have to shut down .exe. I'm on battlenet.
Very strange.

From what someone else has mentioned it may be the cause of a server in Ireland being blocked, if you allow that when it appears blocked it should work

Yep. It worked. So does it mean there is like database for BO6 beta? In MW3 i can just select 2 servers, in PL and DE and that's it.
