    24h early access VPN switch

    Because UBIsoft decided not to set regional releases for The Division 2. ie, Australia, EU March 13. And instead releases March 12th across all regions, which is 24 hours ahead of North America.

    Can players be banned for switching their VPN in order to play the game at the same time zone as the EU, Germany, Australia?

    This is a huge issue many players are having where players are getting a 24 hour advantage which is completely unfair, but are worried about receiving a ban after paying $100-160 depending on the version they purchased.

    Streamers of course are all taking advantage of this already.

    How exactly is this unfair? The game is out there, and anyone can go play it. Half my friends list already is. Is it also unfair that some players can play 12 hours at launch, while others have to go to work and can only grind out 2 hours before bed? It's not a race anyway. Some will rush to endgame, and others will spend 100 hours clearing every nook and cranny of the light zone. To each their own, and that includes when and for how long they access the game.

    Very toxic community, my inquiry was; “could you be banned”, however, there is a lack of a valid answer to that inquiry. Thus, I think this conversation is over.
