Geo Filter doesn't get me games for regular Battle Royale and Plunder, but works sometimes for Rebirth


Recommended Posts

Hello. I am a complete noob so please bare with me. I have an XR 500 and I am playing Warzone on PC. So I set the Geo Filter to the servers nearest me. Used the ping heatmap to set it up also. I could never find a game. I did all the usual things listed here and it made no difference.

Then googling around I find this thing about a COD authentication server in the UK so I also carefully set my geo filter to that server (which I saw while Warzone was trying to get me games) along with my area in the East Coast of the US. I got into 2 Rebirth games, but never a BR or Plunder. Essentially I can't get any games now. Why is this? Is COD so much desperate to nerf everyone's connection just to let little timmy get some wins? That's their solution to the cheating problem in the game? Anyway here is my geo filter. Why isn't it working? Please consider I am a noob to the billionth degree.

I will also add that testing is showing that when I turn off the geo filter, the game is giving me quick BRs in Texas. To test I block that Texas server and the game goes back to not wanting to give me any game on BR or Plunder or Rebirth. Then I unblock that Texas server and lo and behold I easily get BR and PLunder games again. It is as if the game is hell bent to send me to the Texas server (when my geo fence wants it in the East Coast) at the moment. Is this the case? Did COD rig it to where you are destined to be at certain servers at certain times at certain situations (making the Geo Fence worthless)? Or is there something I am doing wrong?

You don't need to have the UK server covered, it's already pre-allowed. 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 - I would suggest using the radius rather than polygon mode as you're only covering a single area - do make sure to cover a few servers
  7. Wait 2 minutes
  8. Boot up application/game/client

Then see if it works better.
