kdizz08 Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 As the topic says after the patch with the new character Ed the geofilter stopped working the only way it finds games now is with geo filter off and i watch the map to make sure the person im connecting to is in my circle any ideas?

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted June 4, 2017 Administrators Share Posted June 4, 2017 Hey, welcome to the forum! Are you seeing anything being blocked when searching? Are you able to connect to the game with Geo-filter really strict? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kdizz08 Posted June 5, 2017 Author Share Posted June 5, 2017 it will still find games i have it set to strict like it was before the patch, however the games it does find it takes longer to find them and it usually only finds 3 or 4 bar connection games. I used to use the playstion network to find matches which worked fine till the latest patch ive also tried using the xbox live one as well.

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted June 6, 2017 Administrators Share Posted June 6, 2017 If that's the issue it could just be that the population has decreased. Has anything else changed? Like not being able to sign into the game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kdizz08 Posted June 6, 2017 Author Share Posted June 6, 2017 no it works as it used to for other games except sfv with the new patch, as far as population goes the game has as many users as before. The maps still works so all i have to do is check to who im connecting to before accepting a match to make sure there not to far away with the seach disabled im still able to see who im connecting to before i accept the match so i guess in a way the router still works i just have to screen the match before i accept which is only a slight bother.

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted June 7, 2017 Administrators Share Posted June 7, 2017 So instead of Call of Duty where it'll block everything outside your radius and just get you a game within your radius you have to check if they're within your radius before accepting the game? That's a new mechanic they've added then? If so there's no real way around that that I could see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
migurams Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 i have the same exact issue, I thought I was the only one with this problem or something wrong with my settings on my router Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted June 29, 2017 Administrators Share Posted June 29, 2017 Thanks for confirming it's an issue. Could you weigh in on my above questions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
migurams Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 the issue with me is when I use the geofilter the exact opposite happens. I always get matched up with players from other countries when i have it on and never within the US and its always very laggy. The game doesnt allow you to choose or see what region the player is from until the match is about to start. This is what the capcom blog says about matchmaking changes Matchmaking Improvements It should now take less time to find an opponent in online matches. We’ve also added logic which avoids frequently being matched with the same opponent repeatedly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What happens if you just rely on the ping assist on 50ms and turn off strict mode? There's likely a setting to compensate for the new matchmaking system and make it more bearable - I shouldn't think you will need to disable the Geofilter for SFV.

migurams Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 I have tried using even up to 60-70ms ping assist and strict off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you disable the Geo-filter, what is the connection quality like? Do you end up getting really crappy games all the time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
