On which server did this happen? My Portal Hosted Server
When did this happen? (dd.mm.yy hh:mm) Anytime
Summarize your bug Whenever I host my portal server It never puts it in my own region causing me to have 160+ ping and then it eventually lags me out and kicks me out of my own server for no reason. I am currently US East and it seemingly never goes near me.
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Host a portal server, its random occurrence from what i've heard when it affects people but has been hitting me every single time I host.
What happens when the bug occurs? It kicks me out of my own server.
What should be happening instead? We should have the option to change our server host regions or at least have the auto system actually work.

I've had this problem to a degree for years now and no matter what i've changed like NAT type, Internet provider, or where I even live, the ping is always ridiculously high. It happened to me in BFV so I quit that for that reason. It happened in BF4 until community servers saved it, it happened in hardline, it happened in 3. How?

I Just want to love this game man, please EA, give us a break for once.

    How do you host a server? There is no button for it.
