COD WW2 Playing with Overseas latency

[Treygzn]

Hi everyone.

So my friend stays in the UK, and him and I play COD ww2 together, but when he joins my party and we play on SA servers, I have horrible latency and red bars, he is fine.

Now on black ops 3 we would do the same thing and I would not be affected, so I was wondering if anyone else has this problem, if so is there an explanation? Because I have tried to message activision and sledgehammer and nothing from them

I wasnt even aware there were SA servers for ww2?

Every time I tried I joined international servers so ended up just not playing

Because no one in SA seems to be playing. So, how it works (or how I think it works), everyone joins a lobby, when the lobby is full, it will check the latencies for everyone and then it will join to best server based on that. Almost like P2P.

Back in the days of COD MW2, I had iBurst, but because 3 of us where using my iBurst connection, it would always make me host (P2P) and other people would complain about the lag. I miss the real dedicated server days of COD BO.
