BiG ShredZ Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 Hi, I live in Australia, and trying to play FIFA 16 on PS4. I like playing with international players, kinda cool playing with people from completely different countries and i dont mind the lag on FIFA as im not a big time player, anyways, Ive noticed i keep getting matched with players from the middle east and Africa which is all good, but ive noticed that i always get 400ms+ ping, which is expected, ive played pc games in those regions and ping tested ect and thats what i expect. BUT there has been a few times where i got matched with someone from Israel and i got 220ms ping, which i thought was strange to have a ping so low (for me to the region), and also a player from Saudi Arabia i got 250ms ping. but i got matched with different Saudi players and i got my usual 400ms ping. Pretty much any Middle eastern/African region game i always have a high ping and thats simply because of how my network providers cables run. So what Im asking is why do i have a low ping to a very few players there? Im thinking one of the following 1: Maybe they are with a different network provider that provides a better cable route to Australia 2: theres a dedicated server in a different country Im not aware of that we are both connected to, maybe the likes of Japan or USA3: Geo filter is giving me incorrect pings or possibly giving me a players incorrect location I also have this happen with south american players, i can get 250ms ping to some in Brazil, and other players in Brazil ill have 500ms+ ping Im just really curious as of why thanks!

PharmDawgg Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 Some of the other guys will chime in on the other questions but I would just like to say if you think a particular server is in an incorrect location please post it here and the devs will check it out for you. It can happen. : http://forum.netduma.com/topic/1723-cloud-incorrect-locations/ The server ID The ping Where you live For example: 4b173a05b4ea5c61, 25ms, UK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted October 18, 2015 Administrators Share Posted October 18, 2015 It could be either of the things you suggested, however I would guess it is probably incorrectly located in which case you can help us place this correctly using Bucks post Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
