Yo Bungie can you not match me against Asians with over 6000 ping in Survival & Elimination please and thank you?! There is no skill in SBMM if the entire match is fixed on who has the upper hand in network connection.
Where is the skill in SBMM if I have to shoot someone 40 times in the head to do 60 damage before they're suddenly behind me and I get melee'd 5 times and die 3 seconds later.
Where is the skill in SBMM if I have to shoot air just hoping that the laggy players might be there so I can maybe get a kill.
ALSO can you stop trying to invent your own match making and just use what everyone knows and loves?
I have no clue what you're doing in Bungie but almost every other popular game gets it some-what right, why can't you?
I'm playing from EUNE btw, and I'm being matched with players over 7000 kilomiters away AT BEST
ALSO if you don't mind, dear Bungie.
Please rework all your maps if any of these happen to be the case:
1* A lot of maps are made for 4v4, and haven't been reworked to fit either 3v3 or 6v6 game modes after the swap in team sizes.
2* A lot of maps that are made for 6v6, are in 3v3 game modes which ruins a lot of the games competitive integrity.
3* A lot of maps were made with the intent of a certain game mode being played on those specific maps, by removing or changing the game mode from the map, you ruin even more of the games competitive integrity.

I'm finding it near impossible to play now. Just constant people from all over the world. The huge dsync.. I super 4 people and in the time I shot my blades.. the opposite team put down a well and I didn't even register a hit marker. You've got someone running around with constant head shots. I don't know what has happened but the game is a fking mess. It's really bad

Poor geolocation and multicontinent lobbies have been an issue since D1 launch, they simply do not care, or if they do they are incredibly incompetent. Pvp will only get worse next season when they enable some form of this SBMM-crap to Control as well (which already matchmakes me with players from other continents on a daily basis despite having connection quality as a priority according Bungo), and that is on top of the atrocious crossplay connections that are always laggy (and often enough unplayable due to lack of hit reg) no matter where the other player is from.

This topic screams racism and discrimination to me

You realize guys in Asia have much better infrastructure and better connection to the US backbone than many people in the US have? It’s norm to have your personal pipe, not shared with anyone else, never throttled and keeping the nominal speeds 100% of the time, if you are a gamer. Check out Sony’s Nuro for a good example. It’s insane how fast the connection is, even with the US. The real reason has been stated by Bungie. People team up over LFG from all over the world, but in case of a team they take only one guy into consideration when matching up… so you get matched with a team where one guy has a good connection to you and the rest may be horrible. The only solution is to play freelance always.
-
That sounds like a you problem. I’m in New Zealand and have no issues. 7000km is child’s play.
-
Agreed. The amount of times I used to be matched with people from another continent is ridiculous. I’ve quit playing pvp since the classy resto meta. Region lock should be a thing. Dedicated servers should’ve been a thing long ago. And SBMM constantly has trash connections. We shouldn’t need a geo filter to get a fair match. The utter disregard for pvp is and it’s playerbase baffles me. This is supposed to be a “triple a” studio. I wish I could do 50% of my job and still keep it.

If only it was that easy.

Just make it so if you don't meet a threshold while connected online then you can't play online.

VPNs and proxys are great for gaming. If you can't beat em join em!

Edited by mja calg: 8/4/2022 7:32:39 PMIf Bungle had properly tuned Regional Dedicated Host Servers instead of Halo era 2008ish Peer to Peer Networking, then crap like this would likely not happen.

It's no wonder Bungie has abandoned you
-
You realise this is going to get worse under SBMM right? What you’re experiencing right now is matchmaking with optimised connections. That will only get worse as we take steps away from CBMM. It will great games that are decided by who has the better connection.
-
Don't worry, a form of sbmm will be available in control next season to make it worse. Everything will be OK.
-
Said it before. Say it again. P2P based connections means only one thing. [spoiler]Bungie does not care about PvP [/spoiler]

None of this matters when they let absolute plebs be in ranked tiers. Agree, needs work, but also needs a gate. You shouldn't have 10-20 or more deaths in a 3v3. Should be gated to prevent negative kds from comp lists, since they literally never contribute to the team, and quit when they get stomped, even though they know they have no business being there in the first place. Imo never having actual teammates as a solo is the worst and stupidest part of the game. -
I hope this isn't the future of QP
-
Try to improve your own internet, kiddo.
-
The connection quality were not optimal before cross platform but now this is another step in the horror story I suspect something is not right with the engine
-
It’s simple. Other games have dedicated servers. D2 pvp has p2p. So they have to add connections to their matchmaking. And that lack of servers causes these problems. In other games you only play against other players on the same server. And if someone has connection issues, it does not ruin your game.
-
Just hope your better skilled than players overseas, or else alot of your matches are be a bit laggy.
-
I cant wait in one month when sbmm comes back. Lmao the destiny community is just ridiculously annoying. Lol idiots.
-
Oh here we go with the same lie campaign that doomed SBMM the first time: Claims of outrageous ping times being the norm. Nobody has 6000ping in the year 2022. Even using Starlink - internet literally coming from outer space - wouldn't get you 6000 ping. Just stop the bullcrap and deal with the fact that PVP is now going to be more fair for more people.

[spoiler]Bungie doesn't care [/spoiler]

Bungie will reinvent the square wheel and charge you to like it. Also . Name check out.

Just wait till they add sbmm in control. That's going to be interesting.
