GAME BUILD : Version 100.12.18493.0
GAME PLATFORM: Steam
OPERATING SYSTEM: Windows 10

:arrow_forward: ISSUE EXPERIENCED

Multiplayer game browser automatically switches from ‘‘all regions’’ to ‘‘closest region’’.

:arrow_forward: FREQUENCY OF ISSUE

100% times I enter the browser

:arrow_forward: REPRODUCTION STEPS

Multiplayer>Browse games

:arrow_forward: EXPECTED RESULT

Not sure if it’s a bug or intented but considering the small player base and the lack of lag ‘‘All regions’’ or last selected option should be by default. It’s so annoying to change it everytime, and could go unnoticed for new/casual players.

Agree, I get the devs’ idea but it is kind of annoying/confusing.

I would also guess intentional, but given how the online community isn’t super large, it’s rare I would ever want to limit available games to my region based on latency.

I makes no sense a player from UK doesn’t get a game hosted by a German player as if there was a lag problem.
