Fix Your Network Code!!!!

I have played loads of MMO and online games. However, D2 has the worst network issues I have ever seen. That's saying something considering I used to play starcraft on dial-up and can truly say you have the worst connection issues I have seen. Now I understand that network issues are a pain to track down but to add insult to injury you punish me and my friends when your game is having the issues. For example, you don't let us rejoin the grandmaster we were just doing. so even when we were to the boss we now have to start all over due to the fact I can not join the same instance I was just in. and let's say I can rejoin you then take away all the heavy ammo that I was saving for the boss fight. I have even gone as far as to open my network up completely to see if that helps.....Nope! I don't mind paying money to support a game I like to play but some things just need fixing before you move forward. I mean you spent time to have someone make this season -blam!- looking armor (my option) why not hire someone to fix your network or at least make it to where the customer is not punished for your network issues.

    I can agree with you on that, peer to peer is the reason and lack of dedicated servers are needed. Last week I was given a ban restriction for 2 weeks from playing crucible or gambit. I will say that I have satellite at 40mb down 1-2 up at the time I was given the ban after having played a match of gambit to complete my salvo ornament, luckily I finished just before being banned. Still no idea why I was banned restricted as i was simply just banking motes to get the ornament. Also i am hard wired to my net don't own a PC, and just a PS4 is connected to it, also I live in a rural area so no internet is available other than satellite or wifi hotspots and if someone replies with just move and get better net during a covid 19 epidemic and risk getting infected to just play a game your out of your mind. Now I respect this game have been here since Destiny 1 Alpha and over 5000 hours allotted over D1 to current season D2 I respect the rules and try to avoid playing game types like gambit or crucible and Never Play Trials unless I'm going for a weapon to get for collection, as I know I do not have fiber internet I try not to ruin the 1% of players in the game mode. But to be banned for 2 weeks over something so petty as banking motes for a quest that is part of the season i paid for is insane. Not to mention Bungie made seasonal weekly challenges that Require you to play gambit/crucible to get in game currency and for quest reward objectives to be completed. I think the penalty is way to unforgiving given the circumstances and should reduce those bans on people who have not so great internet or if servers kick you or if mother nature strikes lightning down on a tree that cuts off your power which then gets you penalized for quitting mid match down to a day worth of ban. It's not like we are cheaters or anything of that nature, we just do not have the best internet on the planet. I hope when bungie expands their offices we get dedicated servers but honestly doubt it, and I worry that my next ban restriction is going to be 2 months for whatever reason it may be that I pray never happens as this was the second offense over the entirety of my destiny career and as a console gamer who never owned a pc. Again a little off topic but still on topic about how there servers can affect anyone.
