Sameer Posted October 25 Share Posted October 25 My PC is not showing up in the Geo Filter while playing Black Ops 6. Any solutions out there? Regards! bmoreirap 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted October 25 Administrators Share Posted October 25 Are you using game pass by any chance? If so delete the device from the Device Manager, change the PC to a PlayStation in the Device Manager then re-add it and see if it works please.

Looks like from the other topic this may be due to playing custom games, if you go through matchmaking does it work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jermsz Posted October 25 Share Posted October 25 Will test when I'm off work. Last night in a match nothing was showing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did what you asked me to do do. Deleted PC from the Geo-Filter, changed it to PlayStatiion device type and re-added to Geo-Filter. Only this time, while adding the device, it didnt aske me to choose the game (e.g., Call of Duty Black ops 6) to be added for Filtering. Still no luck. Geo filter shows my device Inactive.

xBuTcHeRx Posted October 28 Share Posted October 28 Fraser is there a difference between categorizing the device as GAME CONSOLE or PLAYSTATION? I know both have various ports but is one better than the other? gab0021 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was literally about to write in with my grievances, but this piece of advice actually worked. I was tearing my hair out prior, thanks Fraser, much appreciated. Will this be how it has to stay or do you intend on adding this game pass method to the pc portion of the geo filter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good to hear that sorted it! We'll be testing this way of playing so we can update it for PC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also noticed the ps5 game plays off of port 3074 where as the game pass game 3075 to have an open Nat type and servers to show up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It should indicate something, trying to stabilize, unable to stabilize etc, if not then it's been disabled and you'll need to re-enable it. If they're both on at the same time then one will use 3074 and the other will use 3075 that's normal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It specifically won't work on pc via game pass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted November 4 Administrators Share Posted November 4 Thanks, that makes sense, we're testing it with game pass currently so it's probably why it's not working as reliably in that situation. Use it as a PS for now, you'll get the same benefits in the meantime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sameer Posted November 16 Author Share Posted November 16 Havn't had chance to play game lately, so sorry for no reply. I can confirm, changing the device type to xbox or ps does seem to work with GeoFilter for PC game pass. But, not for the device type Computer with game pass. Also, Steady ping don't seem to work when device is changed to xbox/ps. Would love to get this fixed soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
