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...

What have you got your radius set to? You should definitely be able to force a game on the east coast. Its likely a dedicated server just misclassified as a peer on the Geo-Filter which we can update, that won't affect your connection.

Radius is set to 400 miles. I can find a game if geo is on spectating but in filter mode will not. The host is named peer. It is in same location as the dedicated server I play on sometimes but has a different ID number than the dedicated one.
- Netduma-FraserOct 31, 2018NetDuma PartnerTheres many servers located in the same cluster, they're likely just misclassified as peers on the Geo-Filter which can be updated, doesn't affect your connection.
I'd recommend you'd raise that to 650miles. Also do the following:
Remove device from Geo-Filter
Quit game to dashboard compeltely or hard turn off console
Flush cloud on Geo-Filter
Add device to Geo-Filter
Set Geo-Filter radius/location
Boot up console/game, should be able to get a game- StevecookOct 31, 2018ApprenticeThat worked. Thanks.

Sadly, even with the fresh flush and adding the console again, Geo-filters don't seem to work for India - the error is always 'Lobby not joinable' 5-6 seconds after searching for a game.
Like I said, works completely fine for WWII but not for BO4 - very sad state of affairs :(
