I am playing from Kuwait which is in the middle east and the lag in the beta when connecting to EU servers feels pretty bad. If it would be possible to add MENA servers in Dubai, Bahrain or Saudi Arabia would be amazing because I know there is a player base for this game in the region but with the lag I don't see too many of them sticking around long after launch. Please consider this region as a whole because most video games don't and the ones that do are played more often here.

There really is a playbase for it in the ME. If only you knew what percetnage of every household plays fifa... they are to die for soccer/football. Football is THE most watched sport in 2018, in the MENA region. i dont think any other sports got any updates so i do not see why it is any different in current day and age.

#

not to mention the cheaper price for this game in the M.E area. i know quite a bit o arabs who are willing to buy the game but arent sure. Servers specifically around the M.E or maybe North Africa region examples; Egypt, Libya will deffo allow for North-Central africans and M.E players to have less ping.

#

to add onto that, with 2 out of thee 5 current qualifying being in the Middle East and 1 closer to the middle east than the other server regions that rematch offers, i do believe that, not because they qualified, but the amount of people currently hyped up for the upcoming football season, will definitely get more people psyched about soccer games and more importantly this game.

#

but, who am i to plead my case. i am but a player, the developers and owners have the final say for this game

#

I believe they will listen. They probably wanted to minimize spending for the betas but hopefully they will add it for the full release once they saw a decent audience in the region

Very good point i live in Egypt and i already bought the elite edition it will be nice to play with some decent ping instead of 80s or 70s

Yess please, so annoying playing on 170 ping and so many fans from the middle east its crazy

Rocket league dealt with this problem as well, they didn't add ME servers until maybe 2019 or 2020 (perhaps later, I can't remember), but the esport scene especially football related is booming there

#

If they add ME servers early it would be huge

My opinion is merge Mena Servers and play in EU until the game build a huge fanbase in Mena region more than that. then later it can release the MENA server. since if you noticed in league of legends MENA server is so bad no playerbase

from my experience the MENA servers in league are just more toxic and a lot of AFK players so a lot of MENA players choose EU for the better experience and the fact that league has region based accounts. But with rematch if they add a way to choose servers like Valorant or CS people will play what makes them comfortable. I do see your point though that their might not be enough people but less people will buy the game if forced to play on 100+ ping is how i see it. ❤️ you though

@ornate wave @pliant ledge having good connection in a game like this is key. The low players and the afk and toxic stuff in league of legends doesn’t matter here. it’s a different game and it’s about football.. I don’t need to explain how popular football is here lol. so expect more players for sure. The afk and toxic stuff is yet to be determined. But we could definitely use the guaranteed better connection in a game of quick actions and reactions

# burnt ginkgo The Bug Report Form's ready ! Before answering, make sure to follow those steps:...

Hello,

Who made the decision to place Middle East servers in Turkey, despite it being geographically located in Europe and Asia—not the Middle East?

As Middle Eastern players, we usually connect to servers in Dubai, Riyadh, Bahrain, or sometimes Qatar. Placing servers in Turkey gives us higher ping and a worse experience.

We need your support as a company (I’m not sure if you’re part of the development team, but please pass this message along) to provide better servers and reduce latency for players in the actual Middle East region.

If the company has no intention to make improvements or provide support for our region, we deserve to know.

We purchased the game with the expectation that Middle East servers would actually be located within the Middle East—not in Turkey.

Please let us know whether the company plans to help or simply ignore the issue.

Also, could you let me know your role regarding server support, so I know who to contact for any further server-related problems?

Thank you.

Hello. The problem we are facing is that apparently the middle east server is located in turkey. Which is mostly in Europe. So we are getting 120-190 ms ping when we play on the middle east servers. Please if you could, relocate the server to either bahrain, saudi arabia, uae. AWS, Azure, and google cloud servers are there for use. Would appreciate your feedback regarding this point and appreciate your help regarding this matter.

@soft jolt quick question, what happens if I use auto search? is it only gonna search for ME

worthy geode
# soft jolt Hey guys do you stil' have the issue now?

I am currently located in the State of Qatar, and the in-game ping I experience is excellent — which is expected, as the server is located in Qatar. However, many other players are experiencing extremely high and unstable ping levels, which I believe is due to inefficient routing.

From my observation, the issue appears to stem from how the network routes are configured. It is important to mention that other games — such as League of Legends — previously had servers hosted in Qatar, and we never encountered such major ping discrepancies between players.

In many online games, when servers are hosted in Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, or Dubai (UAE), players from across the region generally experience stable and closely matched ping values. The differences are usually within a small range of 10 to 15, or at most 20 milliseconds, which is acceptable for competitive gameplay.

Given this, I kindly request that you look into the current routing setup and explore ways to optimize it. Improving the routing paths between players and your servers across the Middle East would significantly enhance the gaming experience and reduce frustration among the regional player base.

Thank you for your attention to this matter. We appreciate your support and look forward to a smoother gaming experience for everyone.

pearl crescent
# worthy geode I am currently located in the State of Qatar, and the in-game ping I experience ...

You’re right routing in online games especially for regions like the Middle East where geography and inter-country ISP relations play a huge role in latency stability. If the server is in Qatar, and you’re getting excellent ping while others are not, it’s highly likely the issue stems from inefficient routing paths or suboptimal peering agreements between ISPs and the game server’s host

The server in Bahrain was very good for all games, but it would be much better if it was in Saudi Arabia because the saudi arabia is in the middle and everyone can play more comfortably and with better connection.Thank you for responding to us Thank you for that.

Hey @harsh hound thank you for the feedback, in this thread it's about network, the gameplay team is looking the type of issues you are talking about. So hopefully we can fix both. If you want this issue to be fixed, do not hesitate to start a thread or up vote one that describes it.

Me personally, I live in Oman and getting a stable ping while on the Middle-East Servers. 20-30 Ping

grizzled rapids
# soft jolt do you notice a big difference between Barhain and Qatar ? usually

Yes there is, the routing to amazon AWS server to Bahrain is more consumer friendly with almost all ISPs averaging ping to 10-30 ms, while Qatar in the other hand have weird routing that only limited isps can get decent pings while the rest can get up to 150ms. You can check and see the average ping of players playing in the server to validate the above.

Hi just in case the issue hasn’t been fixed already. The absolute best country to put your servers in are either Bahrain or saudia. Many popular games use these countries and we get good ping on them for example epic games, they use Bahrain for Fortnite and rocket league

Best case is Riyadh since its the central Region of ME

no it's not like this we are joining to middle east specifically to Qatar server, but the ping still high, and this is our main problem. We appreciate everything you do guys, but hopefully you can solve it by changing the server to MENA (Saudi Arabia) or Bahrain, so we can play on 20 less ping like other games. Btw our ping is 70+ and some countries of middle east 100+ which Europe we get 90 ping. @soft jolt

Otherwise excellent work

Huge difference and the game feels very smooth

high cedar
#

the ball teleports, the players teleport and everything is just hard to play

#

it's like i need to post the ball 2-4 business days to shoot

#

i wish i was joking but not even in the EU server it's playable, the game requires more precision, reaction speed and thinking, with any ping 90+ the game just becomes unplayable since you are always at a disadvantage.

#

as much as i love this game but it is more frustrating than fun when it comes to playing and you miss the ball even when the enemy comes out of nowhere and take the ball or when you have the ball and all of sudden it teleport to a nearby player

#

and as a keeper when the game show you that you grabbed the ball but due to ping difference the ball just go past you because you grabbed it 0.5second at same time as someone kicking it

solid marten
#

@soft jolt consider multiple server selection, so we can search ME and EU at the same time

high cedar
#

But i guess you mean it will select the fastest game regardless of server?

#

In that case i guess it would be better to have a server browser so we can join servers

solid marten
soft jolt
#

Auto will check the ping of the servers and send you there

where it's the best

please note that this kind of things may vary since it has real world constraints and the ping can be X at one point and a bit higher or lower few minutes after

Great. Thanks. For regular 3v3 I find matches fast. Haven’t tried 4v4, but regular 5v5, I couldn’t find a match. And as said previously ranked 5v5 I couldn’t find a match. Thank you for the update

I’ve played 65 games so far. 90% of them are 3s because it’s the only way I could get into any match whatsoever. I only play other modes if my group leader is European. The beta didn’t have any of these issues it’s so weird. Connectivity is pretty good and the game isn’t as laggy at all. But yeah q times are crazy. Also there’s a huge bug on trophies regarding leveling up on PlayStation. 0 people have the get to level 10 trophy lol

Well, if everyone think only 3v3 is working and only goes there it makes it less likely to find people in other queues

If the Middle East server is in Bahrain it would be so much better

#

The thing is it’s always laggy for some countries when the server is in Qatar

south aurora
#

The main problem for me is the Insane ping variation even within a region. And on top of that it's insanely unstable.

For example in league of legends I have always, every game 47 ping.
On rematch It varies from 40 to 100 ping average... Average because it always fluctuates by +/- 10 ping. Unstable ping is what causes most of the desync and rubber banding.

Hey guys, sorry for not answering earlier, as Gego mentioned we were working on it, and we tested few things. We plan to deploy a solution that should help with the overall speed of the game on regions that have lower pings. We are also working with our network partners to see why on our game the ping seem to be higher than on other games. It is a slow process because we do not want to mess up and so we are taking steps one at a time. I know one month seems long for you guys, we are working on many topics with many regions to monitor and quite a lot of stuff to do to improve the game at the same time. Hopefully next time we talk it will be much better.
