No Dedicated Servers, No Destiny 2 for Me

If there will be no dedicated servers on Destiny 2, i am not buying it. Already 1.5 year PvP and also PvE is mostly frustrated. The only people which can mostly play normaly are people which mostly have Lag Compensation advantage (Latency Lag) -----> you know: they win all the fights, because they see you (and so start shooting) earlier on their screen. For you it's like you die from 1 bullet, you don't have any armor or that you are shooting with a water pistol. For the enemies it's like they own you big time :) The rest of us are playing in the hope to be on the right side of the connection, for once....just because we know it's possible. This counts for all the PvP game modes. Mostly 1 red bar players are MVP. Only possible in Destiny. I have 11ms PING on speedtest and 0 packet loss: always being punished for my good connection. I see enemies much too late on my screen, or my bullets not being registered because of enemies packet loss/ bad connection. Dedicated Servers WOULD solve 95% of all problems, especially the latency lag. (my experience on COD) Also i think that players with bad connections should be punished and not rewarded.

  • Everyone realizes Destiny doesn't use P2P or Dedicated, right ? It's a hybrid system. Old Redit reference: https://m.reddit.com/r/DestinyTheGame/comments/26z959/is_destinys_networking_p2p_or_clientserver_based/ Quote: "Enabling this holy grail of online gaming are two important technologies. The first is Destiny's hybrid networking design, which locates itself somewhere between the server/client relationship of MMOs, where the world you're playing runs almost entirely on a distant server, and the peer-to-peer system of most online console gaming, where information is traded directly between players' machines. It's this approach that also enables Destiny to deliver the skilled, fast-paced action gameplay that MMOs have historically struggled to do." They also released a technical overview PDF that I'll update this post with when I find it. This all being said, they clearly need to continue improving their hybrid brainchild :)
