China taking over US servers...

[iAmDirtyRed]

What is going on? Every US server I have jumped into recently has been full of Chinese players and hackers. Some have been more than 3/4 full of players from China. It's ruining the game!

[Mortar]

I play a lot....like almost 1000 hours since August. I HAVE noticed the past several days an influx of Asian players into servers I play on, but I have yet to run across any with 3/4's of the player list Asian. As far as hacking...only 1 or 2 incidents that had me scratching my head...the rest is just normal play as far as I can see.

I will state that the Devs need to pay close attention to this. PUBG for example had a LOT of issues with Asian players and accusations of cheating and nothing could destroy this small but dedicated player base quicker than an influx of cheating in the game.

I dont think its cheating as much as the lag is so bad when half the server has 300+ ping it might feel that way. I just hope they find a fix cause this is nuts every match on my play times is a mess now. Mix in u7/u8 issues and its a real........you know what

Hey everyone,

We've seen an influx of new players from various regions over the last week!

Before the weekend we doubled our server capacity in those regions to support the new players and give them region friendly servers.

The team have just come in to start their Monday and will be looking into if we're in a good place server wise.

i heard there was a big chinese streamer streaming HLL which could caused the large influx of new chinese players.

It's a good thing for the Devs and for us tho. Some of them use mic and speak english too.

Yeah it's awesome to have an influx of new players.

What we're doing is making sure we have a suitable set-up for players of all regions to go. Currently we're chatting (as I type this) about making sure we sign-post the servers correctly etc.

That way everyone gets a fun, satisfying and fair gameplay experience with minimal lag.

Can you not develop a region Log for Chinese Player.

I am no rassist, please understand me wrong!

But a region with a ping of 300-500 is too much

Please add Region Log for China in the game, please!

Hi

Good to hear chinese players found the game and enjoy it.

Yet I do hope they will use servers off their own as this afternoon I have been in two servers.
A german and french one both had 90% chinese players and even those with readable names in my squad were talking chinese.

Pings above 350, getting shot trough solid walls, around corners ect.
I tried really hard to stay but after 30 minutes off this nonsens I couldnt.

Untill this is resolved I ll have to stay away from HLL as this doesnt work for me atm.

The US West Servers were CHOCK FULL of Level 1-5 players with random number names and hanzi in the late night, early morning hours all this weekend I played.

Why do they have so many players with random numbers as their name? I don't get it.

China players on US and EU servers is disease.
They are killing game ang gameplay as it is.
I can name at least one project where china gamers nearly killed it.
And cheats for them is normal thing

[ʙᴜɴ.ᴇ]

I've noticed on another game I play European servers are full of Chinese players, is there something going on recently with Steam? seems odd they all opt to play outside their region suffering massive ping.

Looks like they got thru their famous firewall.
Anyway, its kinda bad for us, but good for developers, as they are getting money.

as asian player that can play on AUS server with good ping and lots of suffering from chinese cheaters on any games before like battlefield 1 and V, hunt : showdown. I don't want chinese people to invade this game too. Can't take it anymore with their cheating culture, the problem is they are too many.
Make ping lock better, and don't only double the server amount, at least go for 5x server amount right now to make them not playing outside on asia. Because that at least amount when they invade any games, always lots of players from them.
Cheating culture not only bring cheating problem to the game it will also raise toxicity around the community as whole, next time happen will nobody want to communicate, racism, etc.

Please act quickly.
