Re: Server Side Update: Firestorm Matchmaking

Since the patch, my friends and I have experienced a bug that prevents us from playing Firestorm Squad Mode. (middle of the day US Central Time).

What happens:

If we join a North American Firestorm server (~40-60ms ping) the server shows between 10 and 36 people connected. All of the guns and ammo are missing and the game never loads (even when 32+ people are present). This makes me think that the server is "stuck" -- where it's obvious that lots of people have joined, taken ammo/guns, waited, and gave up. Maybe the servers need a hard reset? Maybe there should be an algorithm where if less than X people are connected to a server for Y minutes, that server resets or a new server comes online for people to auto-re-queue.

If we happen to join a non-US server (130ms+ ping), the servers seem to work.

Either there's something broken server side or there's literally less than 40 people looking for a squad firestorm match during the day in the USA.

Let me know if I can provide any additional info to help you look into this...
