Bedrock Weird ping issues

[maggienoodles]

I don't know if it's just me, but at least on my end, there are some weird things. CONTEXT: I play on Asia servers
For example, I could play 7 games in a row on Skywars Solo on Asia servers then get straight US or EU servers for the next 20 games
OR, specific game modes within games seem to only have specific region servers. Like, in Skywars Solos or Duels, i can usually get 10-50 ping, but in all the other skywars game mdes like Duos, Quads, Mega (my goat), I only can get 200-300 ping servers.
In 2023, I used to be a bridges main cos i had good ping on those servers. Now, I can't get a single Asia server.

Anyone knows why?

It is because the Asia region is the smallest region in the server. It's why most games end up sending you to EU or NA servers because there aren't enough players online in Asia to consistently fill lobbies.

The reason Asia region matches aren’t created is because there aren’t enough Asian players at that time.

For example, if there are AS: 10, EU: 30, and NA: 50 players in the lobby, matches will be created for the EU and NA regions, while the AS players will be connected to the nearest available region (EU).

This is just my personal opinion, but I’m quite disappointed that Asia region matches are only created for a small number of game modes.
For example, in EggWars, Asia region matches are never created throughout the day, so Asian players are always connected to the EU region.

I think the region matchmaking can sometimes feel inconsistent. It’s frustrating when you know you can get good ping servers but suddenly you only get placed in regions far away.
Hopefully CubeCraft can improve the regional matchmaking in the future, especially for players who are far from EU/US servers.
