Quickmatch fails

Post by RadicalMode »

I tried to join a game using the Quickmatch button and here are the results...

It returned only small servers (24 or 32 players), most are rush or TDM.

Also, the matchmaking system was redirecting to servers in Europe with more than 400ms!!

I always play on conquest 64 servers based in US.

What filters did you have selected? Those are taken into account while Quick Match places you in a server.

Yes, the only way you will be placed into 64-slot servers is if you have Conquest Large selected, as it is the only mode that officially supports 64 slots.

All RSPs should make a formal complaint about it, because all 64 slot servers owners are desperate.

Dice is populating 24/32 slots TDM/Rush servers and leaving the 64 conquest servers empty.

Dice folks just need to check the Gametracker rank... 32 slots servers are just a few pages on the rank close to the 64 slots servers. Makes no sense at all. :?

There is actually quite a bit of reporting on the back end of things from RSP's to DICE. Many issues made known, many looked at, EA/DICE decides what to work on. :?

RadicalMode, I know this is a little old, but I have 2 ProCon Plugin suggestions for Server operators...

1) Get 'Adaptive' server size plugin for ProCon. You can certainly start your server at 32 players (for example), and when you have 28 players (also for example), you can start gradually bumping the player limit upwards towards 64.

2) You can use the 'Ultimate Map Manager' plugin ($5 donation I think). You can start your map with Conquest (NOT Conquest Large), and each round, it does a check on # of players. If you tell it to, you could switch to Conquest Large if the last round ended at 28 players.

These both will help you 'kick start' your server (with Quick Match), and gradually work up to the Mode/Player Count that you desire (Conquest Large, 64 players).
