Something about this patch seems to have reverted everyone back to their original data center even if it was less than optimal in terms of ping/packet loss. I was getting the connection warning icon during my first few matches today. Checked my data center again, and sure enough it was the wrong one. After switching over, I had no problems.

We’re investigating potential things that could be going on here. Below is some info that will be helpful for the team. When reporting please try to provide:

  • If possible please take a screenshot showing what datacenter you are being put in and if this is different than the one you normally play in, let us know what datacenter you think you should put in.
  • Ping info - where are you getting your ping info from?
  • For those that are seeing folks from other regions in their games, are they just regular players or spammers? How do you know they are from other regions?
