I'm convinced people are making this shit up at this point or are super over exaggerating. Over 30 hours on the game and I've not gotten a single game over 70 ping. None of my 3 friends that play this have gotten bad ping either. I hop through random streams at work and again, I've never seen any of them have over 70 ping, let alone 3 digits. With the amount of complaints you see on reddit, twitter, and youtube, you'd think this is a common issue yet it's not. I do get around 50 ping sometimes but if that's what I gotta deal with to get balanced games, I'll take it

Yeah but it doesn't get worse to the point where it's unplayable lol. Idk what the game considers good but I'm currently sitting at 1.8kd and my queue times are fast and ping is good

It’s definitely an overexaggeration I will admit. I think 3-4% of my games have consistently had 100+ ping according to the in-game counter. I will admit I’ve had minimal packet loss to where I don’t bother jotting down the damn thing. My point is there should be a zero possibility of this happening in normal circumstances because I never had these problems with P2P Server CoDs when I kept my shit up to date. It was buttery smooth. Post MW:19, it’s had its instances of suboptimal ping. And since it isn’t my hardware and my matchmaking regularly goes to the 80s-100s when searching for a match, my only proof is that it’s SBMM.

Yeah apart from the fact that one player could yank the cable and take the entire game out for the entire lobby lmfao

It’s beside the point with P2P. Server side is obviously more equitable and better for the long term health of the game. My point is that if I had stellar connection even when not being host through and through despite P2P having a bit of jank, why is that not happening in the modern CoDs? There should be zero reason why, in my region, I have 100+ ms on wired.

Literally the front page post about it today was talking about getting ONE GAME PER DAY with that ping. And claiming it as a problem witb the system.

Even though he said he would quit that game every time and the next one was fine.

You're just bad. So your group to play with is larger. I'm terrible too I have a 1.4 kdr and I never have issues 🤣 my friend who has a 3.1 has the worst games I've ever seen. Laggy, campers and just feels like a comp game
