Re: Cant find game in duos (sydney servers)

@Rzicsam 

Thanks for following up!

What happens if you try setting a different DNS on your Xbox? I've seen some cases where using a different DNS can help with similar issues as well. To update the DNS on your Xbox follow the steps below: 

1. Open your Xbox Settings and select Network

2. Select Advanced Settings

3. Go to DNS Settings and select Manual

4. Enter 8.8.8.8 as the Primary DNS and 8.8.4.4 as the Secondary DNS. This is the public Google DNS, but if there's a different public DNS you would rather use instead that's OK as well. 

Let me know if you're still having the same issues after updating it. Thanks again!

Hi kent,

Tried this with no luck.

Let me claitfy i have no other connection issues. Trios etc are ok. If i change to different servers i can even find duos games (but laggy as a hell)

Surely this is an issue with apex/respawn?

Regards,

Sam

@Rzicsam 

It is odd that it would only be affecting duos. Are you solo queuing, or are you grouping up with someone? 

/Kent

Hi kent,

Ive tried both honestly.

Either solo queuing, me hosting with a friend or my friend hosting.

Ive made open posts on xbox for apex and found a few people with the same issue.

Cheers,

Sam

@Rzicsam,

Thanks, I appreciate the details. 

Do you have more than one Xbox connected to your network at the moment? 

/Kent

Hi kent,

I have anither xbox connected but is very rarely online.

Cheers,

Sam

Same on PS4. Sit there with a max of 20 people in queue for 30 mins and still can't get a game

Thanks for the updates!

Would it be possible to try testing this with another account on the same Xbox to see if you run into the same issue during matchmaking?

Hi there. Also in Sydney and can never get a duos game for probably the last 2 seasons. Always 2 to 4 people in the queue. Ranked is also about as bad but seems much moreso the duos.

Im on ps4, solo and with duo partner. If i switch to a different server like japan and NY then its always full and instant start.

Thanks for the details!

I'll pass this along for a look.

Hi all,

Just chiming in to say the same thing. My gf and I are both on Xbox One and we can never find a game of duos on the Sydney servers.

In the duos lobby the matchmaking rarely gets above 4 people. We usually have to hop on the Oregon servers with 188ms lag to get a duos game. This has happened all through season 5 and 6.

If we switch to trios on Sydney servers we get a game instantly. We have no problems with any other multiplayer games on the xbox. It sucks because we don't always want to play with a random third but our friends aren't always available when we hop on.

Woohoo! With the launch of the crossplay Beta we are finally getting duos games on the Sydney servers here at my place in Victoria!!!

😁

Finally! Won our firsy duo games aha.

On the bright side i can find games now.

Downside? Everytime i use the grapple all i can see is pathfinders arm on my screen ☹️

Hey congrats on the win!

Our only issue so far has been two disconnects due to the logic error that has been around forever.

Its great to have duos with no lag though 😁

Ah damn, I thought that was just us. We are back on the Oregon servers with 189ms and 2 packet loss ☹️

What changed, why can't we play duos on Sydney anymore? We got one day and now nothing 😭

Yeah it's bizarre...I genuinely don't know if it's just a small minority of us that can't find duos or if nobody on Sydney servers wants to play duos. 

It's frustrating as hell.

Still the same problem here. Its been so long and we still can't play duos on Australian servers. I refuse to believe there aren't enough players that want to play in duos.

We get to about 5 in the queue and then it just goes back to the two of us.

Just for the hell of it, whats everyones ISP? We are with iinet, could the issue be with them?

Just found this thread and I’ve got the same issue. Something must be seriously wrong with the servers for this stuff to be happening.

Agreed. Me and my friend, since we started playing again about three months ago, havent been able to find a single game - we even tried to go onto singapore or tokyo servers and those didnt work either.
