Sorry if this has already been suggested (I had a look around but could not see it) or there is some option I don't know about or if I've done something stupid.
Basically as you know when hosting a game you can select a sever or you have the 'automatic' - from what I've seen, unless I am just unlucky, this is just a random server (I know it says 'finds the lowest latency' but it clearly doesn't!). Basically my suggestion is to add regions to the automatic option, for example:
- Automatic (UK)
- Automatic (USS)
- Automatic (JPN)
etc..
My friends and myself are from the UK so obviously prefer to play on UK servers - I have been using a mod (although it seems to have been implemented as a default game setting in the last patch) to remember the game settings such as name, EM or non-EM, All heroes etc...but yet theres no way to remember server location preferences. I've had to remake quite a few games as friends as I left the 'Select server' on automatic and ended up with a USS 300+ ping and my friends have complained.
Just my thoughts, feel free to agree/disagree and vote!
