Netduma Alex Posted November 7, 2019 Share Posted November 7, 2019 So all of those servers appearing inside triangles are being blocked. The one in the UK with a circle around it is an authentication server which is only used for matchmaking. It looks like everything else is being blocked successfully.

Hello Alex, If it is correct, then I am wrong and I don't understand some details of how the geofilter works. My main questions are: 1) in the picture that I attach when it says that I am connected to the user "a2aca9744941ecf1" ... with ping of 40 shouldn't the user's location appear on the map? I thought I was the one who appeared with a triangle. 2) is there no way to connect to the square server located in Spain? Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Netduma Alex Posted November 7, 2019 Share Posted November 7, 2019 I would suggest opening the side-menu and disabling auto ping. Once auto-ping is disabled, you can click on any server that appears on the map and a details panel will open under the map. As for what the icons mean, take a look at this picture: You will not appear on the map yourself, which is why you need to choose your location on the map manually. The reason for this is that we have no information on your location, and we cannot ping your house from inside your house. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I didn't explain well about the first question. I would like to know:1) in the picture when the software Dumaos say that I'm connected iwith the user "a2aca9744941ecf1" ... with ping of 40 this user don't appear the location in the map?

Thank you It will be pinging something, could you unzoom the map completely and look for something that is allowed other than the whitelisted server? It could be anywhere in the world if it is mislocated. It may help to do this on a PC if possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I boot up the game, the Madrid server is always there, but then when I search a game I'm always connected to Paris or London server. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted November 7, 2019 Administrators Share Posted November 7, 2019 Perhaps try adding it to your allow list and then setting your location in the ocean with strict on and PA at 0. That might allow you to force the server. It could take awhile though but if you do get it then it shows it is available as a game server, if not then it may be a backup server in times of heavy load for example and so not always available.

I'm going to try to explain: Picture 1 -> Geofilter in the ocean. Strict mode / Auto Ping host enabled / Ping assist:0 Picture 2 -> I start the game MW and I enter a party and it connect to a dedicated server with 41 ping. Picture 3 -> I disable Auto Ping host Picture 4 -> I select the triangle icon that in theory it should be a dedicated server locked and I see that it is the server which I am connected.

Netduma Alex Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 How do you know that the blocked server is the one to which you are connected? Also it's possible that there are connections happening that the Geo-Filter isn't seeing. The Geo-Filter only keeps track of UDP connections on consoles.

Hello, because the ID was the same: ID 9618935EB5356469 / 24.105.53.94 The connection with ping assist enabled was in ID 9618935EB5356469 / 24.105.53.94. After I disabled ping assist and I selected manually the triangle icon of the map and it was the same ID 9618935EB5356469 / 24.105.53.94 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Netduma Alex Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 In both cases the server might have just been pinged momentarily but a connection was made to a different server in the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like it is a backup server then as otherwise you'd be able to connect to it if it took awhile. Theres nothing we can do about that, your settings are correct it's just down to the game/devs when/which servers are used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
