Venom Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 Hi:) I can barely find any lobbies in cod iw. It s saying "searching for a match" for ages. I have preety normal settings: strict, distance:1km, PA: 0 I had those settings in bo3 and had no problem, but since IW i cant properly play It even show that there are plenty of hosts in my area Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Netduma Staff Netduma Jack Posted November 15, 2016 Netduma Staff Share Posted November 15, 2016 Hey, welcome to the forum! First of all, what country are you located in? The servers for IW seem to be a bit haphazard at the minute; the game will likely want to put you in a dedicated server but there might be none in your area. It's something they certainly need to fix; their servers are too sparse as it goes. Check if you've got an open NAT and try increasing your radius to include the nearest dedicated server; or try turning strict off and using the ping assist at 60ms.

Venom Posted November 15, 2016 Author Share Posted November 15, 2016 Thanks for the quick respond. Im from austria very close to italy. Since i dont want to play against germans i set my location to italy which isnt usually problematic at all. My nat is open and turning off strict mode doesnt change anything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Netduma Staff Netduma Jack Posted November 15, 2016 Netduma Staff Share Posted November 15, 2016 I think unfortunately a lot of people might have to increase their radius, since their servers seem harder to connect to than Black ops 3. Try increasing it a little at a time or using a different profile. Also try doing a network diagnostics test to find out what your base ping is. This could be affecting the ping assist feature.

ColonicBoom Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 I'm in the UK and constantly getting French, German, Austrian, Dutch, Italian, Irish, etc. I don't think you can be too picky at the moment, so as Jack said, you should widen the geo filter if you want to get games.

progprogprog Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 Hey guys What works for me is to leave Geofilter off Find out what server the game puts you on Then place home location on top off the server Restart game with Geofilter turn on strict off 200kl 10ms ping assist I know the radius is small but they drop so much quicker!!! Just try it and let me know how it goes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slipknot31286sic6 Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 Ping assist and strict should be off in infinite warfare. If it's on you will be kicked out of lobby regularly. Seems only distance works which makes netduma pointless. Since ping is king. Throttling makes no difference either. Seems cod royally fucked us or netduma is at fault.... Who to blame. No answer why we can't use ping assist or cod ultimate on infinite warfare... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
progprogprog Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 It's almost as though ping assist is off set a bit Like 10ms feels more like 30ms Try the settings above though as it really tightens the feel of the game. Make sure strict is unticked though as it will boot you from the game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Venom Posted November 16, 2016 Author Share Posted November 16, 2016 Thanks for the help guys... its not working perfectly but atleast it puts me into some lobbies. IW defenitely needs to change something about that... the game is already dying and this certainly doesn't help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted November 16, 2016 Administrators Share Posted November 16, 2016 Ping assist may not work as well because you have to connect to two different hosts - P2P first then Dedicated server so if the dedi is outside your PA limit it would be blocked. As long as you have some dedicated servers in your radius you should be good to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can have my geo filter set to 111 miles and P.A. set to 15ms It will put me in and out of lobbies until I find a P2P host that is connecting to the california dedi which is 60-70 miles from me. I have stricked on as well, patience is key Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted November 17, 2016 Administrators Share Posted November 17, 2016 On IW my NAT type switches from open to moderate. How do I maintain an open nat? Give your console a static IP in DHCP lease and then manually port forward & disable UPnP. I can have my geo filter set to 111 miles and P.A. set to 15ms It will put me in and out of lobbies until I find a P2P host that is connecting to the california dedi which is 60-70 miles from me. I have stricked on as well, patience is key You should just be able to force that. Have the map completely clear, Geo set how you want and boot up the game and search. Shouldn't take long to get it. I forced multiple different servers in the EU doing that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
