how come when i sign into SoF2 to play on line if i look at friends i can see that they are in games and join them, however if i do either a quick search or an optimatch i get no results returned on either ?:shrug: whats going on like ?

Connection is SACM 1mb downstream @ 960k upstream 242k

I dont understand it :spin:

Try refining your game search for optimatch to a game type like CTF then a speed of 3 stars

Then do the search, then wait for about 30 secs and you'll get your list of games.

It's a lot slower than the other games we are used to for some reason. Probabily a programming cock up, everyone is still learning how to make great online console games.

Cheers, but the settings are any game type at any speed and i still get nowt, just an empty list

when trying to play quick match i just get no sessions found, would you like to create your own

Yes if you select any for everything the search is to wide for the game and it'll take much longer to return results. By refining your search it will speed things up.

Once you've managed to get a list on Optimatch I think your quick match will start to work.

"Once you've managed to get a list on Optimatch I think your quick match will start to work."

Its a bit of a bug me thinks! Probabily similar to the one in GR that was only returning about 4 games on Optimatch.

OK i will do that, presumably thought this means that you cannot join quick games at all as there are no parameters ?
