The lag is so ridiculously insane. I have a netduma router so I can see where players are from. I am in the midwest USA. I was matched with Saudi Arabia, Chile, Mexico, Australia, Europe, Malaysia, ALL IN THE SAME LOBBY. When you match intercontinentally like this, you're introducing huge amounts of lag. The ping in the lobby was 225ms+. When you add this much lag, there is really no skill involved. Just a teleporting lagfest.
I don't think SBMM and P2P mix very well. Until you offer dedicated servers, remove SBMM.
EDIT: Just spent a game against an entire team from Europe. Kept getting shot by recluse and austringer after I had already ran 20 feet behind cover. There is no skill involved.
EDIT 2: Before saying you don't have any connection issues, please assess your skill level. Lower skill level players will have FAR fewer issues with connection as lower skill level players are available in abundance. The game will not have to search very hard to find opponents of your skill level. At higher levels the game has to search MUCH harder to find opponents of similar skill level. So hard that it needs to look in other continents which is what is creating the lag.

Nope. The PVP in this game already has enough issues. Pub stomps don’t need to occur based on connection. You’re just gonna have to play better versus those the same skill lvl as you. Don’t use geography as a crutch.

4 RespuestasAs far as I'm aware its all peer to peer and they removed sbmm a long time ago since they dont have servers on the level of games like cod or cs:go

2 RespuestasEditado por GetSpaghett: 6/24/2019 12:40:19 AMLol, "Remove SBMM" As far as I know, SBMM isn't a thing in D2 anymore. It was removed long ago. What you're getting is pure RNG.
-
5 RespuestasI have had no problem what so ever. There is no lag its a myth you are just crying because you have to play against people of your skill set.
-
2 RespuestasYa I'm so sick of the lag I bought the XR500 for 250$ with a geofilter. It works really well except for the actual lag switchers and general trash laggers in the geofilter. Iron Banner isn't as laggy as it usually is but if someone is out of my filter I get the error code rabbit. I complained about it in the Help and Bungie help dude told me to open my geofilter. Nah I'm not playing with south Americans or Chinese....

1 RespuestaSo, being able to K/D farm the lower skilled is not enough for you in QP? Now you want it in IB too. Its freaking hilarious how you people act when you have to face somebody that actually has a chance against you. Boo Hoo for you, leave IB alone.
-
7 RespuestasNo. Tweaked yes. Removed no. IB cannot become the stomping ground that QP became. That's what drive out the thousands of mid tier players.
-
1 RespuestaWhat kind o- NO. HELL NO. I am actually really loving fighting people on my skill level. I run against NF fighters and unbrokens and it is an all out battle when I'm going against them. Seriously I do love it.
-
4 RespuestasIt is not skill based or I wouldn't be grouped with the constant trash that I am.
-
4 RespuestasPvP even in its basest form is competitve. You should always have to try a bit more than turning on your game and logging in. If there's no chance of losing and the odds are always stacked in your favor you might as well be playing PvE.
-
we need what halo reach had, where we could pick prior to the match what kind of matchmaking we wanted, it had settings like good connection and similar skill ranking, and all requirements could be turned on. but of course when the same company makes another game they dont include these kinds of features.
-
So it is skill based, so bungie is basically saying I have the skill of a full fireteam while being by myself. I think the should just make it match to you power lvl not whatever it is now

1 RespuestaEditado por SCRIIPTIICON: 6/24/2019 12:33:35 AMI don't know if It is SBMM or not and I don't care. The connections are horrible, and they need fixing
-
5 Respuestasdid one bad game really warrant a post like this? If it wasn't one game, then maybe it was your internet
-
1 RespuestaAre you using the Geo Filter part of the Netduma software? If you have that option do it.
-
5 RespuestasIB has SBM?! Oh so thats why I had suicidal thoughts after every IB match. Bungie sto protecting shit players with your shitty matchamking when I first started playing D1 SBM was nowhere to be seen and I was getting destroyed in pvp why are new players now getting different treatment??!?!!

1 RespuestaEditado por Reclaimer: 6/23/2019 2:03:33 PMTo the people who are asking for SBMM back: that’s what you’re asking for. IB is exactly what Quickplay will be with SBMM in. Lag-based matchmaking with people oceans and countries away from you who would slay their parents to beat you, if that’s what it took. People absolutely hated it when they snuck it into D1. When it finally got removed in D2 Y2, the difference felt like going from swimming in mire versus swimming in a proper lake. Night and day. You may think you want it back. You may think K/D farmers don’t want it back for their K/D. But trust me; you do [i]not[/i] want it back. It’s why everyone detests IB.

8 RespuestasEditado por RingersCheckmate: 6/23/2019 4:26:14 PMIsn’t SBMM what people have been asking for since forsaken? I’ve been doing just fine in all of my IB matches personally.
-
2 RespuestasThis just shows that skill based matchmaking is the perfect way to go, If you have a problem with a fair fight and have to hide behind lag as a reason you definitely don't need to be facing individuals who arent as skilled as you.
-
So you’re saying you don’t like playing against players from Guadalajara to Australia?; LoL
-
1 RespuestaHad no lag issues really. Sbmm is nice when solo. I wish you could toggle it. Most of my clan is way better than me so if I want to play with them I useally end up getting farmed pretty bad. Happens in connection based match making sometimes too you get paired against a god. No system is perfect it would seem.
-
Completely agree. It's fine during the day all the way up to say 10 central time then I start to get the inconsistency with games. Anytime after 2 am it's just strait lag fest. Cant hit anything, cant damage if I do, punch a dude get punched die instantly then dude dies 5 seconds later after killing someone else to my punch. Like wtf
-
Although it sounds counterintuitive, Iron Banner should matchmake based on power level (similar to strikes). This would make people just returning less likely to get stomped purely based on light level. Also a bit of selfishness since I'm too lazy to run all my weekly milestones.
-
6 RespuestasRemoving skill based match making won’t fix the lag issues that you’re having
-
1 RespuestaIt doesnt have SBMM but ok. It goes off the QP mechanics
-
3 RespuestasSbmm is in iron banner? I thought we only had that in comp matches.
