The Official Battlefield 1 thread

https://www.battlefield.com/en-au/news/article/server-launch

On Tuesday, February 21st between 08:00 and 13:00 UTC we will be introducing servers in these three regions for the Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC. Once deployed, players in or close to these new regions will now enjoy online Multiplayer with lower latency than previously experienced.
The three new datacenters will be based in Johannesburg, Dubai, and Hong Kong, respectively, and will utilise the same type of high performance server hardware as the other regions running Battlefield 1 game servers

Awesome news finally!!
 
Yay finally, today is the day of awesomeness

Battlefield 1 servers now in South Africa

I played briefly last night, until the power tripped, but my ping was around ~50, perhaps even going to the lower 40s and upper 30s at times.
 
There is currently a peering issue between internet solutions and the i3D servers. They are aware of it and trying to sort it out.
Try another Saix isp if you have 170 ping
 
Unfortunately I'm stuck with my ISP (Cool Ideas?) on a 2 year contract. They were the only fibre providers in my area at the time, so no ISP swapping for me. Lets just hope they resolve the problem. This is the first issue I've had with them, no other local server that I can find is pinging higher than 30ms or so.
 
I'm hearing rumours that although we have 'local' servers, there is only something stupid like 272 slots allocated to them?
 
Ok that explains things a bit. Just tried the a local server and my ping is still really bad. Went from 1 bar on EU servers to 2 bars local. I'm on Web Africa

yep it is the peering issue. Internet solutions have already contacted the server host's and said it will be sorted out by Friday which probably translates to Saturday Sunday
 
Mate of mine had the high ping issue, he just messaged me now and said it's been resolved. So good news for the guys with that issue.
They've also added a lot more servers now.
