From 9th March maintenance notes:
"Improved the Last Stand matchmaking by increasing the priority of grouping you with other players from the same geographical region."
Now we in Australia are being left in limbo for not being able to matchmake instantly. Before, matchmaking used to happen like a flash and you're in the game a minute after entering. Now it's an endless wait. On top of that, you can't do anything while you're in matchmaking process. You can't change or reconsider your build. Nothing!!!!
Can we please bring back old matchmaking engine?
No the lag issues and 'poor connection to server' were largely the cause of players from different regions being grouped together. We all have to make sacrifices for the sake of better gameplay.Originally Posted by FlipperKoala101 Go to original post
The Sacrifice all Aussies now have to make is to NOT PLAY THE GAME at all...... this will make the already low population playing this game here... even lower...Its a snow ball effect.Originally Posted by Winslow-the-Dog Go to original post
There is NO GAMEPLAY NOW. Australian players queue into longer wait times or no games now since this change. Undo this change NOW.Originally Posted by Winslow-the-Dog Go to original post

You sir.. should work for Ubi.
It's crap, poorly thought out and obviously they didn't crunch any (recent) numbers when allocating regions...
IT'S CRAP.
and it couldn't have happened at a worse time... "cascade failure" comes to mind.. Aussies are a fickle lot and we take minimal BS when it comes to our gametime/funtime... there's a n abundance of choice now gamewise.. and some of us are hanging in there with this game out of pure misguided loyalty (but were hanging in there.. just)
and this is MAJOR BS.. and another in a long line of WTF moments in the past year.
no i will not sacrifice the ability to play the game so that you can get 10ms better ping!!! bring back the old system so we all can play!!! im sick of making sacrifices for the world, first we hold the japanese to a stand still in PNG, then we hold the germans back in tobruk, hell we saved the USA in WW2. we made our sacrifices!!! and you cursed us with Trump and the Kardashians!!! you put up with some lag!!!Originally Posted by Winslow-the-Dog Go to original post
In all fairness, if it wasnt for the Americans we would most likely all be speaking Japanese now haha.. but still.. I agree with your point.Originally Posted by evrytinghrtz Go to original post
it was the aussies who first gave the japanese a taste of defeat, and the aussies were the only fighting force that the japanese took a look at and requested more forces, our nasho's (army reserves you know the weekend warriors, second stringers) fought them to a stand still in PNG and stopped the southern push by the japanese!!! yes the bomb stopped them completely but if they made land fall in australia they would have been hard pressed to hold it!!! remember everything in australia is designed to kill humans, and our children grow up with that!!!Originally Posted by TDope Go to original post
