panda106There should also be a matchmaking maximum ping option
tf_matchmaking_ping_a (default value 50),
tf_matchmaking_ping_b (default value 150),
tf_matchmaking_ping_c (default value 300)
The MM system initially searches for a server with a ping under tf_matchmaking_ping_a's value. If it can't find one, it searches for a server with a number under tf_matchmaking_ping_b. If it still can't find a server with a ping under tf_matchmaking_ping_b's value, it searches for a server with a ping under tf_matchmaking_ping_c's value. IIRC, you have to change these values from the main menu, or you might have to restart your game. They also reset after every MM match to the default values of 50, 150 and 300 respectively unfortunately. I'm pretty sure that's how these commands work, but I might be wrong.
