  • Because the CITY that I live in----in the lower 48----has more people living in it than the entire state of Alaska. In fact Its about 1.5x the population of your state.

    • The fact the connections have gotten worse since they switched from "SBMM" to "CBMM" just shows Bungie doesn't know what they're doing.

      • I always wonder how this works. If you play in a fireteam whose connection is it based on? The playstation has a cap to use the full potential of my internet so this will influence match making too I guess? Is Bungie manipulating connections to make it more playable for people with bad internet? It always feels like that players with worse internet have more advantage in PvP.

      • I live in New Zeakand and played a couple of games yesterday against people in Japan and South America. I was literally watching bullets come straight through concrete objects and walls. It was horrendous.

      • CCBM means it's completely random and you get abused if you have a good connection IMO. I'm seeing slow matchmaking at times and more lag than ever. CCBM is also a great way of having people form 6 stacks and never lose. Matchmaking should weigh your connection speed, but it should be like a professional baseball player against a pee wee leaguer.

        • Same for UK. I mostly match Russians and Americans because they have better connections than my urban UK countrymen.
