petjev Posted December 28, 2014 Posted December 28, 2014 Hey, playing AW on PS4 while in party chat. There are multiple large circles flashing during the game. Is this a known thing? Patrick
Guest Netduma_Iain Posted December 28, 2014 Posted December 28, 2014 Are they the biggest circle? Or just changing size. If its just changing size that's normal.
petjev Posted December 28, 2014 Author Posted December 28, 2014 I can't see one stand out... They just keep going from small to big and small again.. And back to big.. Etc..
Guest Netduma Fraser Posted December 28, 2014 Posted December 28, 2014 I may be wrong but I suspect they're small when no one is talking and big when someone is.
petjev Posted December 28, 2014 Author Posted December 28, 2014 correct... I also assumed something to do with party chat.... i'll try to switch in and out of party chat and see what that does..
wrathoftank Posted January 4, 2015 Posted January 4, 2015 I've been having something weird happen the past few days when I play AW. I am only getting continually pulsing circles, the sizes of every circles change rapidly on the geofilter, which makes it impossible to see who is host. Also often time are only 2-3 circles on the geofilter even if I'm in a full game. Just some notes, I'm not in a party, and this doesn't seem to happen when I play other games. Any idea what's happening? pulsing host short.mov
Guest Netduma_Iain Posted January 4, 2015 Posted January 4, 2015 Thanks for taking the video, what version are you on? If .6 do you have strict mode on?
wrathoftank Posted January 4, 2015 Posted January 4, 2015 Hi Iain, I'm on .6 and strict mode is off. Also my geofilter is covering almost all of the U.S.A.
Guest Netduma_Iain Posted January 4, 2015 Posted January 4, 2015 Ok that is most likely because you're on a dedicated servers. So the pulsing dots just show people talking. Strict mode will get you better games in most instances, don't forget to snap In the next version I'll show dedicated server circles

I guess when you are on dedi it doesn't show other people in the lobby unless they are speaking in a party? Also will we be able to see the ping to the dedi?
Guest Netduma_Iain Posted January 4, 2015 Posted January 4, 2015 Yes you will in .7, it will look just like any other circle. Sorry about that I incorrectly assumed people would not want to see it.
wrathoftank Posted January 4, 2015 Posted January 4, 2015 Great, thanks Iain. One other question, what happens if we block the dedis? My ping is actually at its worst when I connect to them.
Guest Netduma_Iain Posted January 4, 2015 Posted January 4, 2015 No you shouldn't be able to do that. But you should enable strict mode you'll experience much better gameplay! If you finding it hard to get a game use the new snap button next to the home button. That will find optimum search distances for you

Guest Netduma_Iain Posted January 4, 2015 Posted January 4, 2015 ok cool, let me know how you get on please
wrathoftank Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 ok cool, let me know how you get on please Just played the night on strict, and it was a smooth experience for me, no lobby booting either.
faulko Posted January 5, 2015 Posted January 5, 2015 Hey, playing AW on PS4 while in party chat. There are multiple large circles flashing during the game. Is this a known thing? Patrick Happens to me too. All of the circles sometimes just change randomly, sometimes their all big sometimes their not. No psn chat it happens aswell. Its like the game is trying to choose a host but hasnt.
