Important Discovery: "finding Squad" Bug

[MckDick]

I've found out something very important about the Finding Squad bug.

I was experimenting to see what would work to fix it (or to reproduce for the devs), so I turned off and on UPnP, but that didn't work.

Then I changed the region.

I changed to the other side of my continent, North America East, instead of West. Right after it finished saving, I immediately started to join a mission. I went back to NA West, and the Finding Squad bug was there.

I'd like some other people to test this out to see if it works. It may have just been my client.

What bug exactly?

Edit: not asking because I think there isn't a bug, just want to make sure we are thinking of the same one.

The one where when you click on a mission, and in any setting (Online, Private, Solo) you get "Finding Squad..." but nothing ever happens.

I do get that bug quite often, especially when I continuously change what mission I want. However I've always set my region to Oceania and never really change it.

ah, that one. Personally for me exitting out of the planet is enough to fix the issue, though that maybe due to me being on est time.
