In the olden days, a man could choose US West or East in order to make sure people got placed in a match that kept their ping to an acceptable level. Now the new Hawken government instead thinks its ok to match anyone anywhere on a continent and also pool every available player in giant 24 person servers instead of making smaller servers of better quality and quantity.
I always use the server browser since that change to stay in west coast games and if everyone is dog piled in a 24/clusterf.. I just join an empty server and go make a sandwich while I wait for players.
I have commented on these forums before that I like the large servers for their situational conditioning, but lately all I see are giant full servers and lots of empty rooms around them. :(
If im going into the MM queue, at least let me choose what kind of server to join. I get to choose what game type, why not server type as well?
Making it easier, if MM queue was only 6v6 and 24-man servers were only for private servers not in the queue, that would be neato.
