Does anyone know a good vpn to use to find easier lobbies on xbox? Sbmm has ruined the game for me and I just want a casual playing experience.
Go on YouTube and just find any random YouTuber who is likely to have a sponser. Just go for the cheapest discount. In terms of gaming on console, I’ve never found one VPN to be better. Certain VPNs are better for PC stuff (not just gaming), but in terms of console, cheapest will be fine
Did you pull the trigger on anything? im in the same boat as you
gamevpns.com is the best for console. The only known working region at this time is Australia after the last big update, but the lobbies are significantly better and definitely worth the subscription. Jesus Christ I was so done having to play like it’s fking cod world league every match especially when I’m just trying to casually play with friends or grind camos for crappy guns. Hope this helps!
(New to cod) Does using vpns for easy lobbies get you banned?
Get NordVpn if you can afford it. It’s mutli devices at once, and you will have no issues. It also has a very smooth user interface.
I’ve been using it for 3 years, with no issues. The occasional app update, but that’s it.
im not getting bot lobbies with it am i connecting it wrong?
I’ve never used one to get an easier lobby, I’m also not entirely sure how to get easier lobbies through a VPN. I’m in the UK so my servers are Northern Europe, which mostly means the mics are French people being all French. So I normally switch to the USA to be able to talk to people
From now, yes. You will be banned if you use a vpn. They released a statement.
No. Bit lobbies are rare but every once in a while you get one. Personally, I prefer it this way. Imo I don’t think the goal should be to exploit dog water players, but rather counter the intense SBMM. Also just a heads up as of last night, all regions are working! So fool around with it. Have fun!
I don’t think you’re supposed to get bot lobbies with a vpn I think that’s just marketing hype bs to get the sweaty try hards to cough up money.
I think the vpn is just supposed to remove to manipulative sbmm from rigging matches.
If you want bot lobbies you should 2box
Off topic, are the French rude to everyone including you or just folk from the states?
I have gamevpn but I feel like it rarely works. I heard some game modes are better than others for getting easier lobbies. Do you have any tips? I have a ASUS router and my Xbox connected to the same dns server they recommend
I’m on Xbox and I have ipv6 disabled and some days I’ll get a couple lobies that aren’t bots but they’re not playing like their life depends on it and it’s so relaxing when I’m trying to snipe or get obscure calling card challenges done but other times I’ll be matched up against a full squad of sweats I heard Nike town and stakeout don’t work that well for the vpns
I agree. Plus to get bot lobbies you’re better off 2boxing
The French suck. They’re always so rude n overly racist
“These updates include enhanced AFK detections to battle against account boosting – one of several measures to combat boosting – and adjusting ping thresholds to require players play matches in their region to cut down on VPN abuse.”
It seems like just preventing high pings. Does it say they’re actively banning for use of a vpn?
Yes, they are banning. You have tons of websites explaining that. The “cut down vpn abuse” is self explained…
They can’t legally ban for vpns. There’s a whole privacy clause on that with Microsoft a while back. That’s why it’s worded that way… you can’t change your location to China… that’s vpn abuse.
