10 minutes to get a ranked match, on a game with crossplay
RIP SF6

Good on my end. Bye.

Perhaps every currently active player blocked you due to your propensity for whining on the internet.

i'm getting these dead game comments here and there, people saying they can't find a game in dozens of minutes or an hour, meanwhile i'm flooded with matches and can't have a break to practice.

you do understand that you find more matches just due to being in a region with a larger playerbase? and because of idiotic capcom decision to regionlock the game, many players cant get the same enjoyment as you? i mean i get it you dont care but still anyone can be in that situation

Wouldn't say it's idiotic, but a decent one with the game being P2P. If you want a fighting game without region lock? Try GGST. Can't play that game anymore cause the local regional server that I played got taken over from people half way across the world.

I feel like "region lock" is a misnomer. The game doesn't really have a region lock, it's just that the matchmaking doesn't take physical locations on an individual basis when trying to find matches, instead opting for just the country, etc.

But even without the só called region lock, people would still have trouble if they live in weird places. The netcode is good, but because of wifi warriors I have my setting at "4 or more bars", and I usually reject non-5 wifi. I'd imagine most people are either on 3+ or even 5 only. By that point you'll only accept matches below 60ms, so even if there was no region lock at all, these players would not have been available to you.

The matchmaking could be improved for the edge cases where it currently doesn't work (like Russia is a big country, you can't really have a single Russia rule when one corner of Russia is neighbors with some countries and the other is neighbor with others), and while I hope they fix it, I kind of doubt they will. It's been years and guilty gear strive still has no idea over what to do over non-japan issues. The system certainly works great in Japan, so "works on my machine", and changes become unlikely.

Hell,its just in the last decade that Japanese developers felt like rollback was kind of a big deal outside of countries that manage 10ms to neighboring countries.

If they didn't prevent people in the middle of nowhere from getting into games that their connection can't sustain, people would just decline them manually. It sucks, I get it, but if you live a million miles away from people then you are just not someone others want to play with in a fighting game. Move, or move on. It's a shame, but those are your only two options.

If you don't like the game, find something else to play and stop wasting time complaining and whining about something you don't like. I am in Europe and I found games on ranked a lot. There are other modes you can play and If I don't have a Ranked/Casual/Battle Hub matches, I can always practice to keep on getting better at the game. Be productive and use your energy for something worth your time. If SF6 is a dead game, then why does it keep getting players from around the world, still playing this great game (and Tekken 8). The true dead game is Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League.
