Please allow us to choose our sub-server for now

Currently cross-server texts nor voice comms do not work at all. The server cluster is not swapping us over and matching us with people on our friends list.

The only way to meet a friend, or even type messages to them is by manually matching the server IP, and doing it over and over and over again until you hit the same one (try it with 3 or 4 ppl to see what I mean) is painfully tedious. I know the cloud server cluster is a big challenge, and I've been impressed at how smooth the netcode is now for actually flying in the same instance... but while we wait for the dynamic switching to work properly, could we please have a drop-down menu or something to select the server. It can only display the ones with the lowest load, or something, so everybody doesn't pile on the same one.

I'm trying to play the game with my friends, but I'm having a hard time justifying the difficulties to them.

Additionally, if two or more people are behind the same router, the p2p matching gets confused. Somebody who is alone behind their router has to be the one to initiate voice comms, or else things just don't work right.

Did you put in a ticket?

I agree 100 percent with your idea, or they need to make this a top priority after they get back.

Def ticket it.

Although voice comms is borked for me, text and game instancing seems to work ok. In the logs it looks like some server switching happens in the background, possibly to shift you onto the same cluster. Maybe that's the bit broken for you?
