How are people finding matches on PC?

[Spencer]

I have recently been trying to get back into SG, but I cannot seem to find many matches.

I know the game has a smaller community, but I used to always find QM and lobbies without much problem.

Now in QM I only find 300+ ping games, and I can barely find any lobbies.

Are people using Discord to set up private lobbies? Did the community migrate en masse to the PS3/4? Something else?

I've noticed the exact opposite.
Maybe your internet is having an issue causing the pings to be displayed as high?
I live waaay on the west coast but I'm still having no issues finding matches below 110, and I see plenty of lobbies.

Just play after the 9 - 5 shifts are over and make sure your search parameters aren't set to "Only Mine"
:S

oh we have a discord place now Spencer. people will use it from time to time to ask for matches on the spot.

I avoid game discords like hell but I still find Quick Matches. Decent amount below 100 ping, a bunch 100-140, and a bunch anywhere from 150-300 (I got 600 ping once lol). And I just decline the red ones.

It could be something on my end. I asked a few people to play with me and they were all ~200-250 though they played about perfectly. I usually play pretty late ~10/11 MST. I'll try it out tonight.

Why don't you use discord?
