The Battlefield 6 servers in the Middle East (Bahrain and Dubai) are completely down and we cannot play. We, the game community in the Middle East, want servers opened in the region, preferably in Riyadh, as it has the best servers that anyone could wish for.
Yeah I hear you, brother, if there are infrastructure issues then obviously EA can’t just fix that overnight.
But at the same time, saying nothing can be done isn’t really true either. The game runs on cloud servers, so there should still be ways to manage things better while the Middle East servers are down.
Like right now we’re not even being routed to nearby regions. I’ve been thrown into EU and even East Asia servers, not Turkey, not India, not even Singapore, nothing that actually makes sense for our location. That’s why the ping is sitting at 90–100 ms and the game feels off.
Surely they can at least tweak matchmaking to prioritise closer fallback regions instead of sending us halfway across the world.
And on the server side, they don’t need to build anything new from scratch. They could spin up temporary capacity in nearby regions using existing cloud infrastructure. Not saying it’s instant, but it’s also not something that should take forever.
So yeah, maybe the root issue isn’t fully in their control, but how it’s handled definitely is. Right now it just feels like there’s no communication and no real effort to reduce the impact on players here. Insha’Allah tn7al hal mushkila qareeban.
The servers are down due to the current conflict in the middle east, not really EA's fault, even non-gaming related services are down...
Yeah guys, the servers have been down for 2 days now, this is bad, how can we play on 90ms ping. Please assist us EA.
Still down, at least acknowledge that EA
Same here, please bring servers up and add more locations
Same here, we need confirmation if they're down
same im being connected to eu or asia servers 90+ ping always and the game is sooo baddd. avg ping is most of the time 100ms+
Yes same here. I was always connected to the Bahrain server which had plenty of players. I wish they would bring it back up again.
Now I get connected to servers in Europe which naturally has a a high ping for us.
