Re: Battlefield 6 flawed matchmaking for AU & NZ players to local Oceanic servers
Absolutely, it is driving me mental. Cannot play multiplayer without playing a portal server because I can select for Oceania servers there, but of course it's full of empty games or bot farms or custom games which don't provide any progression after the changes. Really frustrating. I have not been able to get a single game through the official matchmaking area, no matter the game type, without severe rubber banding issues. I monitored the IPs a few times that the traffic was flowing through and then resolved those and they were AWS servers between Dublin, Ireland, or Virginia and Seattle in the US.
A setting to force a connection to a region would resolve this, let alone a server browser proper.
Totally agree that the provided advice is next to useless. Done it all multiple times over in an effort to diagnose and it does precisely nothing.
