BF6 issues

[Ritchie1909]

Whenever I'm using filtering of VPN on my ps5 I can't join games on BF6. The game matchmakers, I start the joining animation but never actually join the lobby and get out back to the main menu after a few minutes. 

 

Have tried the device both as a console and a PC and various filtering combos. Any ideas?

They may well be blocking VPNs but if you try with the Geo-Filter disabled can you get a game?

Get a game no bother with filtering disabled mate yeah! Been playing a fair bit. 

 

It's odd too as the rest of my party will join the game but I'll be left on the home page in a frozen joining animation until it stops. 

 

It's as if finding a lobby outside my filtering zone, putting me in it anyway and then the filter blocks my joining if that makes sense.

It does kind of make sense, you're making an encrypted tunnel between you and the VPN server so we're not really able to read the traffic to filter it as it goes through the VPN. I think you'll need to use one or the other.

But with the VPN off and solely filtering this happens mate. 

It happens with any combination apart from simply not using anything on the OS.

Oh I see, do you experience the same playing solo? It sounds like the game prioritizes getting people into a match even if that means splitting a party, in which case there isn't anything we can really do about that unfortunately. Presumably you have got a couple of servers included within your radius?
