Re: [hlds_linux] sv_region and L4D matchmaking
Yeah I will be matched mostly with people from my country, but servers barely could be from my country. Even though serverbrowser shows lots empty server from my country. There no differentiation from which country your server because only variable we have is sv_region, so game only know about regions. From L4D I remember it just grab first 150 servers sort them by ping and looks like it wasn't changed since then. When game released and mm_dedicated_search_maxping was set to 300 you can be easly put in US server while you are in Europe.

Set your download server to somewhere in Russia and you will see what I mean. You'll get matched with Russian players, and connect to Russian servers essentially every single time.

Even if it so, this basically has nothing to do with server selection. On 12.01.2010 22:54, Craig H wrote: > Matchmaking uses your selected Steam download server to determine who to > match you with.

Re: [hlds_linux] sv_region and L4D matchmaking
Matchmaking uses your selected Steam download server to determine who to match you with. In Steam, go to settings and click on the downloads tab. Set that to a nearby location and you should be good.

[hlds_linux] sv_region and L4D matchmaking
I'm wondering if sv_region is taken in consideration when doing matchmaking server search? Because I've seen a lot time when we put into server with ping 200-300 and these looks like from different region. ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux
