Region Locking

Stephenryan · December 2010

Would you like to implement a region locking scheme?
(a) This stops anybody that has a >200 ping from joining servers.
(b) This locks anybody near the UK from going onto American servers, and vice versa. Clan servers will not have region locking.
What do you think? This will cut out laggers and stop some people hacking.

well in theory it sounds good i suppose , but what about those clans (including ours) that have members in different regions . we're mostly NA but we have some guys that are EU (btw they never get a ping over 200 when we play together). and i honestly don't see how making servers regional will stop hackers .
if you're talking about a way to auto-kick high pingers (over 200) then that 'd be cool , but making the servers regional i think is a bad idea .

Clan servers will not have region locking, and hacking usually raises people's pings, which might cut some off them off if it's over 200.
I want you all to choose A OR B. Whichever you think is better, and some suggestions/tweaks wouldn't hurt.

I do not like the idea. Many players who pay zp as I could not play then CF would lose many players and customers

You shouldn't play Crossfire with over 200 ping, it ruins the game for many.

There should be servers that are locked to only accept 200 ping and under. I would really like this, all the teleporters will be gone and they will be teleporting at each other.

+1 , BRS and Auzzies = 200+ ping = annoying and lag.

Its time that peopel get cut off for having either horrible internet, or trying to reach a server which is 2 continents away.

NA only servers would be empty.

During the time span I play in, 90 percent of the time I am the only double digit pinger. It is me, and 15 brs. They other 10 percent there are only 1 or 2 Americans on. There are probably enough Americans and canadians to fill 1 1/2 servers when I'm normally on.

Also brs are easy to kill for the most part, I don't mind them.
