As a player who invests time and dedication into this game, I feel deep frustration and discouragement regarding the current state of ranked mode in our region (South America). It is unacceptable that we are treated as a second-class community, with our native servers seemingly being disabled outside of peak hours.
It is revolting to spend 15, 20 minutes or more in a ranked queue without being able to find a match in our region, only to then be forced to play on servers in Europe or North America. Under these conditions, the game becomes unplayable. The high ping, rubberbanding, and frequent disconnects transform what should be a skill-based competition into a lottery of connection luck. It is heartbreaking to see members of my own squad, like 'I am Baiano', lose rank due to constant drops and technical failures, and not because they played poorly.
What hurts most is the perception of unequal treatment. While the vast majority of the SA community struggles to even play ranked, we see reports that content creators and top 10 players seem to have access to 24-hour servers. This destroys any trust we have in the competitive integrity and governance of the game.
We are not asking for anything impossible. We just want to be treated fairly and to have the possibility to compete on equal footing, playing in our own region, with fair ping. As it stands, the competitive experience for us is completely ruined.
Tired of being put into EU servers with 102ms latency and i live in the USA
