Call of Duty Black Ops 4 and Geo Filter
Hi,
I live in a region without Dedicated Servers for Black Ops 4, and frequently used the Geo-filter function previously in CoD WWII successfully.
I've run into a big snag when it comes...

Thanks, bud; but I'm way, way off from Cali :)

Only thing that I can think of is max out your radius then see what server(s) you connect to, and add them to your allowed list. I say this because BO4 might not be running on the same servers as WWII or any other COD game.

That's the irony - Back here ALL connections are peer to peer, there's no question of a dedicated server :(
I really miss my sub 50 ms ping days of WWII.

Thanks, Fraser, but that's the thing, and maybe this is a benefit of the Geo-filter that isn't touted enough, but the Filter works even when one needs to find a peer-Host for a game (without a Dedicated Server)! Worked brilliantly for CoD WWII.
I guess we're just going to have to pray that this is a bug with the game and that Treyarch fixes it soon. Any help in the meantime would be great.
