There are quite a few reports coming in about latency issues during matches. What I would like to suggest is for players to please select a specific region when using matchmaking. This can be done by using the drop down box that defaults to "All Regions" under the "Filter For..." heading. Select your region, desired game mode and finally click FIND MATCH.
Unless a region is specifically selected, players will on occasion be placed into matches outside their region, resulting in less than ideal latency. The current functionality for the "All Regions" filter is not working as intended and we apologize for the extra step needed for the time being. We're working on the issues that are standing in the way of you enjoying Hawken to its fullest potential so please keep checking the forums for updates and report on your experiences!
Thank you very much!

edit: we could really use a party system and now would be the perfect time to test it while we test the match maker, i made a thread regarding it, with the regions more visible in the menu and some more media exposure, i'm sure lots of us oceanic players would jump in and start having fun straight away

I can't blame you for trying, but in the end I think the fact that you had to resort to disabling the server browser in order to get people to test your matchmaking option pretty much speaks for itself...
We don't want it. We don't need it. We won't use it.

Playing Hawken with low ping is like playing a completly different game compared to the previous beta!
Works a treat and plays very very nice now!! All we just need is more Auzzies on the servers!
Admittidly we do need tha server select tab back! It at least allows us to easily see where the populated servers are, rather than blind matchmaking and getting into empty servers. Kind of a pain going in and out of servers across different game modes just to find a populated server. I'd rather know in 4 clicks if it's worth trying my region rather than trying for 10 mins with fingers crossed only to come up empty.

Can we please get server browsing back_ Seriously I have no idea why you guys removed it but it is now getting to that point where it is really annoying. I hate having to bounce around from server to server hoping to find a good match or having to sit through one or two bad games before we get a good 6v6 going.
This a PC game for crying out loud, not a console game. Please bring this option back ASAP because I'm finding it difficult to play right now when I can't keep constant matches going with a good population.

I want to play, not sit around half the time trying to get a game that has even number of players and does last more then 1 minute before it ends

Usually takes me 30 mins to find a decent game. Best way is to join a friend who has actually found a server with players on it...

Now, it looks like the "All Regions" option has been removed entirely. . . I don't know, latency can be a pain, but at least I could play. Today, I can't find anyone. I've tried quite a few times in both my actual region (US East) and a few others, but I've never run into anymore than 1 other player. In both of those instances, they dropped out right away too. So without that all regions choice, or a server browser, I can't play at all.
Previously, I could usually find a decently populated match after a couple of tries, but now nothing at all. Anyone else having this problem_

Ridiculous ...
All regions is needed...
Also, when we are alone, the game should end...

I'm trying to play a good game but I find only empty servers or with 2/3 people.
