Will Battlefield 6 Matchmaking (not Portal) Allow Fallback to Populated Regions?
Hi DICE team,
Please clarify how matchmaking will work in Battlefield 6 for players outside North America and Europe.
In BF2042, many of us (especially in the Middle East, South Asia, Africa, etc.) were locked into empty servers in our region with no way to change that. The game never fell back to active regions like Europe, even when our local lobbies were completely dead. I get like 110 ms ping in Europe which is totally doable and a better option than a dead lobby.
Will BF6 automatically fallback to nearby populated regions if ours are inactive?
And if not:
Will we at least be able to manually change our matchmaking region in the settings?
Without one of these, a huge part of the global player base will once again be locked out of the game during non-peak hours. This could also lead to potentially massive consequences on global revenue for the game.
Thanks for listening, really hope this is being addressed.
