The connection quality in PVP is unacceptable.
Been shifting away from Destiny for quite some time now and played a lot of Cod multiplayer recently.
Yea, cod has a lot of flaws and issues aswell but oh boy let me tell you, when you play cod for a bit and then play pvp in destiny after, you will see how insane the difference in queue times and connection is.
Destiny 2 just simply doesn't remotely have the playerbase to support a strict SBMM system that these Bungie devs insist on keeping around (it's not "loose" SBMM as they keep saying, its as strict as it gets)
The pain point in Cod is SBMM aswell cause it turns casual games into a sweatfiesta but atleast Cod is playable with SBMM since the connection doesn't suffer.
But hey, the Bungie devs will never face that issue, because 0,5 KD players will find lobbies fast and have good connections :)

Edited by mxgreg: 10/28/2023 6:03:19 PMIt's funny there's no SBMM in the game, but that's what you want to blame. Maybe, you haven't played in a few weeks. Lag is pretty bad in all the playlists and CBMM makes no difference. The real issues are crossplay and the bottom is falling out. Lower-skill players need a 6v6 playlist. Too many nodes to support the low number of players.

THIS IS WHY WE NEED CBMM

2 RepliesD2 has more CBMM playlists than SBMM.

6 RepliesBS aiming for blaming players below your skill level. There is no SBMM anymore, what they told last year about goals for different modes has totally be abandoned. You find again glorious/flawless players in the same lobby with fresh low kd noobs. Zero SBMM. Meanwhile I believe mm criteria and perceived connection times are just a symptom. The bigger issue Imho is that there is no reliability at all. They say one thing and do something else. No consistency and constant change in the name of "tuning" where in reality it becomes worse and worse. One step forward and two back. Or running in circles. Whatever. For sure it is not 0.5 kd players.

Guilty spark 343 “Unacceptable!” Moment

Edited by A_mo: 10/28/2023 2:02:41 PMUnacceptable is a good word but its actually amazing how "good" it is compared to when this game used to get to similar population levels. If you look really close you can also see how people are getting exactly what they asked for. They clamored for it and got an amazing version.

The problem with destiny pvp is that it’s population is to small. I was playing trials at go live yesterday I was only matching the same people group of 12 players no variety in team distribution either. Plus pvp isn’t Bungie’s focus for destiny so they don’t spruce it up as much as cod. Call of duty too my knowledge has a higher population (correct me if I’m wrong) and the lobbies are cross platform between pc AND console. Call of duty also has a bigger focus on pvp so they focus on it more. For example they get 3+ map’s every season while destiny is lucky to get 1 map. TLDR bungie focused on pve, destiny low pvp population, cod focused on pvp, bigger population

It’s definitely loosened up the last week. Might want to give it a whirl again. But yes, connection quality is still sometimes hit or miss. I’m being placed with tons of players on opposite side of the globe (I ask in chat cuz I see them blipping around my screen).
-
sbmm is one of the problems, the second problem is players not using a decent connection, 3rd problem ( not for all ) console stability is trash for a p2p game and last problem is bungie having a 28 tick rate servers in 2023
-
Strict? My matches are almost all blowouts in my favor. There's also pure connection playlists. Why not play those?
-
Most of this pathetic digital dress sim trash is unacceptable. But hey, that's what happens when addicts support laziness and greed.

4 RepliesMarathon got our dedicated servers. Only way to protest is not to buy marathon. But everyone on here probably still will.

Preach, I keep matching players in Guatemala and I am literally located in Chicago, smh.

Cod. Lol
-
-
It has been for years, bungie does not care, because better connection quality does not equal more money ...
-
Ew. COD lags way worse than Destiny
-
Git Gud is the only answer.

It's perfectly acceptable. just need to adapt.
