Most of the U.S. ProtonVPN servers are under high load as users worldwide battle to be the first to download the latest Call of Duty: Warzone update.
A highly anticipated update for Call of Duty: Warzone Season 5 was released today, and it has caused VPN servers located in the USA to go under heavy load as users from other countries download the update.
US ProtonVPN servers under high loadDue to this, ProtonVPN has released a status update explaining that even though the servers are under high load, there should not be any performance degradation.
"Due to a large Call of Duty update, ProtonVPN servers in the US are under high load, which is expected. However, performance is unaffected as we have safeguards in place to prevent performance degradation despite the high load. More information can be found here: https://www.reddit.com/r/ProtonVPN/comments/i4aj77/did_call_of_duty_release_another_update_every/
Paying ProtonVPN users will get the Call of Duty updates much much faster than free ProtonVPN users. It is possible to upgrade by logging in at account.protonvpn.com."
According to ProtonVPN, Activision's CDN in Europe is very slow. Due to this, gamers outside the USA utilize free ProtonVPN accounts to connect to US VPN servers to download the update faster.
"Activision's CDN in Europe is super slow so it is faster to download the update via US servers by using a VPN. It's a bit abusive, but still a legitimate use case that we will support for the time being,"
"The 90-100 load is expected as our goal is to let ProtonVPN COD users get their updates as fast as possible so we're letting them use all spare network capacity," ProtonVPN explained in a Reddit thread
For those who are using ProtonVPN, you should start to see this resolve by tomorrow as more users get their updates throughout the day.
