Gunzby Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 I know some have had issues with getting booted from lobbies while using strict mode where it shows the host well inside their circle (I've experienced this as well). I also know that AW uses dedicated servers, but also allows you to connect to a host who is connected to the dedicated servers. This makes you connected to a dedi secondhand. Could this be the reason for the lobby booting? As an example I'm in NC with a 500km radius and get booted while seemingly connected to someone 300km away. If the are connected to a dedi in Seattle could that be the reason? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Netduma_Iain Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 In .7 we show you the reason why you get booted, so you can decide if you want to expand your circle to that size & get the game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunzby Posted January 27, 2015 Author Share Posted January 27, 2015 Nice Sounds like .7 has a lot of new stuff in it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RabX2 Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 I know Iain is on top of this and will be fixed in .7, but just wanted report that I too suffer from Lobby Anxiety Disorder(LAD). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BL4CK OPS V3TRN Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 LAD - perfect description and yes I too suffer this fate . Gunzsby your explanation sounds reasonable to me and makes sense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So that player has latency lag to the server and you in turn lag to that player. And that player could be connected to a dedicated anywhere I suppose. Is there anyway to tell if this is happening?

anybloodyname Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 What does strict mode do? I have used it and cant tell if its better or worse on Advanced warfare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirty Dog Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 What does strict mode do? I have used it and cant tell if its better or worse on Advanced warfare. Strict mode enabled keeps your search "strictly" within the confines of your Geo filter radius. Off, and it will search beyond filter settings.

Guest Netduma_Iain Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Dirty dog is nearly right. With strict mode off it will only filter other player hosts outside the circle. With it on it will filter ALL hosts outside the circle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the are connected to a dedi in Seattle could that be the reason? Similar location and similar result. I would see a host well within in my radius but keep getting booted in the lobby. Then it would try to reconnect to the same lobby several times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirty Dog Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Dirty dog is nearly right. Story of my life lol.. Iain, with strict mode on does it block preferred hosts, in the green allow/deny area, that are outside the geo filter range? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Netduma_Iain Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 No Dirty Dog it should never block preferred hosts. HOWEVER having said that I made a mistake & broke the Allow&Deny feature with strict mode on in .6, it is fixed in .7. Really sorry about that.
