I know this is not the first post on this topic, and i know it won't be the last, but here goes.
Matchmaking on Aus servers is STILL BROKEN and there has been nothing forthcoming from UBI for weeks now to acknowledge that this is being heard.
Simply saying "we've increased the time until a different dat centre is located" is a false economy because you are not addressing the problem.
Multiple post have stated that after Tidal basin we were getting directed to ASIA server. Then 2 Server Maintenance ago we started getting directed to US WEST.
A slight improvement because at least we speak the same language, but that is all;. The lag is still atrocious with enemies rubber banding, teleporting or even hitting you with a full clip when you're behind cover because apparently they damaged you 3 seconds before when you were moving to cover.
How hard is it for you guys to get your AUS offices to all try to get on matchmaking at the same time and see if you get the result all these other posters are getting.
Maybe even just check that the servers are even activated for matchmaking, because I can stay on a AU server when in a group of clan mates if there are 4 of us on, but if not and 2 or 3 are in a group - guess what - no matchmaking for you.
But have one person matchmake, get onto a us west server then leave the group and have the other 1 or 2 people rejoin then matchmake again and low and behold, we get a full group.
The only way to meet random AU players at the moment is to get matched onto a US West server.
This is ridiculous and not what is expected from a company the like of UBI. You have become your own worst enemy to players because of the lack of response, when you are normally very quick to address issues.
I can see a large drop in AU/NZ player base if this is not addressed before release of the Raid.
I've given up, haven't played in two weeks as I've been sick of getting grouped with other Aussies in US West server.
I frequently check back here hoping they'll address the issue. Considering it's been over a month now, I don't think anything will ever happen.
This bug killed our playerbase, as most players wouldn't know about it and just assume our servers are dead and stop playing. Then as they stop playing ubisoft assume it isn't a bug, it's the lack of players.
Probably one of the most frustrating issues I've had in gaming. Definitely won't support this company in the future.
This bug is currently across all platforms.Originally Posted by keywal Go to original post

Please do tell me how you can see which server you are connected to on PS4?
I will gladly apologise.
It doesn't show by default.Originally Posted by keywal Go to original post
In TD2, go to Settings. It is in one of the gameplay menus, about a page down. If you toggle it on it will show you region in the social block when you hit start. When logging in we show as Australia, and after matchmaking it shows US West.
Ummmm you can change it in your settings. Server region will appear under social.Originally Posted by keywal Go to original post
Additionally, I would absolutely love to see what evidence you have that this isn't a cross platform bug.

Ive seen a few report the issue on here from Aus saying they are pressing buttons that only exist on a PC so thats where i was coming from.
Theres also a 2nd matchmaking issue going on where we cant matchmake at all. Try to and it stops spinning after a second or 2 which i understand is PS4 only.
