I would really really encourage you guys to not impliment this with even begging.

 

Due to the hours of my work all of my free time shifts to early morning till around noon. So the only thing up at the time is EU. I play medic and engy and quite frankly I've never once had a problem where they complained about ping. I'm always in mumble too. I see the reasons to adding this sure for AU lobbies. Maybe make a lock on classes that are affected by ping? Make medic engy and heavy still available to others? Not only will this half solve the problem, you aren't stalling lobbies by locking away the less played classes

 

Sorry for gramatical errors and such I'm off to work now when I saw this thread

Just to be clear: the Lobby leader will decide if he wants a region lock or not, the default will be like it is now: open for all.

as a brazilian, i don't like this.

there are no brazilian lobbies, you will rarely find a br player.

the only way around this would be using a proxy or vpn to play a f***ing lobby with even higher ping

 

come on guys

As MN has mentioned above the default state will be "Open for all", so I don't see any real reasons to worry for you. During lobby creation the leader can decide does he want to lock his lobby or not. This feature will be extremely useful for aussies. Deployed today
