bamaryan5 Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 Hello, I was wondering if you could help me out with this. So I have strict mode on, filtering on, and I have my radius around the Dallas server for Warzone. I cannot seem to connect to matches with my ping assist set to 0 but can only find them if it is set to around 25ms. Heres a screenshot of my geofilter. Any idea why the server is just a "server" and not an "allowed server"?. I havent blocked the server at all. Thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Netduma Liam Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 Welcome to the forum! What's happening in game when you've taken this screenshot? That all looks to be correct. You'll only see that as an allowed server if it is whitelisted by us (authentication server) or you have manually clicked on the server and selected 'Allow'.

bamaryan5 Posted March 30, 2021 Author Share Posted March 30, 2021 I am able to find lobbies now but on the ping heatmap the ping is around 32ms but when I search up a game it starts looking for lobbies with ping around 60ms. 32 ms is the lowest ping server that I can connect to and I am located in florida. Any idea why 32 is the lowest ping that I can get and that is while connecting to the Texas servers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted March 30, 2021 Administrators Share Posted March 30, 2021 The in game ping includes things like processing delay which is why it is higher than the Geo-Filter (direct to server). There may be some servers missing from heatmap until we do an update, still cover Florida though as you should be able to get a game there.

bamaryan5 Posted March 30, 2021 Author Share Posted March 30, 2021 I dont know what I did but it just sits there and searches at <46ms ping forever and doesnt find lobbies. It occasionally throws me in a lobby by myself then just backs me out and again with the searching in a continous cycle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Netduma Liam Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 Did you make any changes to Geo-filter at all? Are you still covering the same servers in your searches? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bamaryan5 Posted April 1, 2021 Author Share Posted April 1, 2021 So I expanded my range from 225 to 350 miles and was able to find games with consistent 60 ping (which is about the lowest I can get for some reason) so I’m hoping that it is fixed now. Thanks for all of the help. I think there just wasn’t enough players in my range to connect to me and SBMM probably had an effect on that since I have around a 3kd.

bamaryan5 Posted April 1, 2021 Author Share Posted April 1, 2021 That is 60 ping in game btw, the Dumaos ping is around 32. Do you know how I could get lower ping in game? My ping on Speedtest is about 16ms but on ping heatmap there is only one server with a ping of lower than 40ms and results in an in game ping of over 60ms. Would I need to upgrade my internet or am I just located too far from a server to get any better ping? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted April 1, 2021 Administrators Share Posted April 1, 2021 Great to hear that. That's probably about right considering your ping direct to the server, what does Ping Heatmap say the lowest ping server is and what are the pings to a couple of the servers above it? Possibly you could force the next lowest ping server and depending on the ping to it the in game ping may show a little lower if it is a less populated server. You may be too far, your base ping of 16ms whilst not very high could be lower and this potentially could be lowered a bit by switching ISP, hard to say whether it definitely would or not.

bamaryan5 Posted April 1, 2021 Author Share Posted April 1, 2021 The ping heat map says the lowest ping server is 32ms with the next lowest being around 40-45. I will try switching ISP and see if that helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted April 1, 2021 Administrators Share Posted April 1, 2021 Well first of all try forcing the 40-45 server, it's quite a jump but maybe the ping in game will be slighly lower. Keep us posted! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
