XR700 Geo-FIlter for PC not working
So is it me or does Geo-Filter for PC gamers not work. I'ved tried a few games like Overwatch and Killing Floor 2 (Browse Servers) and will get a blimp for a second then everything disappears. Is t...
Yes, switching my PC to Playstation seemed to perform better. Yeah I am guessing since there are dedicated servers it will only give me that info and not other players connected to it. Same as Peer-to-Peer will give me the player information for games like Vermintide 2 (untested).
Also noticing that when swapped to Playstation it appears to monitor everything, which is kinda cool i suppose. Shows me Discord location, etc.
If you're using a server browser for a PC game then you don't need to use the Geo-Filter as well as you can just select the closest/lowest ping server, so disable it otherwise it might block them.
Apex Legends is a source engine game so you would select that. We need to update support for more PC games. You can change your PC to a console in device manager and re-add it to the Geo-Filter, that will work.

I only used Server Browser for KF2, and even with that it only shows people/servers for a second. Overwatch is complete Matchmaking and only showed server info when I first launched the game.
So what your saying is that it doesn't support PC detection therefore I have to change it to PS4 in order to trick it?
Changed it to Xbox. Found some info before even clicking play...not sure why its doing that. Once I join a match all information disappears.
- Overwatch should work just fine, PC does work for some games but an easy way for users to have that functionality for other games is to switch it to a console.
It'll be showing information from the game client e.g. Steam, Origin, Battle.net. Are you fully zoomed out on the map?
