One point of space and time.

Dear bungie

Thanks for the vote of confidence bungie but id rather not play against teams from japan and brazil.

Getting heatshot behind a wall while sliding isnt good game design.

Neither is me dying then the FoH animation playing after i punch a dude 3 times. Plz fix.

It would probably behoove anyone who's not actually in the top ten Destiny players ELO to make sure that you a) set up a static IP for your PS4, b) forward your ports, and c) use Google's DNS servers if you have a lovely ISP. I thought I was getting hosed by Destiny's SBMM and it turned out I was just dealing with sub optimal home networking. It seriously takes like ten minutes and I went from consistent red bar connections to nothing but solid green every time.

Like I know it's a little teensy bit more complicated than "push button make go" but honestly, the ten minutes it takes to google this and do it is so worth it.

Now, it's really stupid that you even need to think about doing this, when 99% of other net-based games will work fine just plugging in to your router and going from there, but it can help.

I just googled "port forwarding for PS4" and went with the most common recommendations, but you could probably even look up ports specific to Destiny if you were inclined.

My connection is almost always green and Ive done all that. Solo droping the other night I got put in a game with cheesefactory and have come up against him multiple times during the last ib.

When i solo roll I come up against streamers and other legit players too.

Theres nothing I can do except tank games, and gently caress that.

Its poo poo game design. Nothin else.

Good advice for others though. If everyone did it might cut down some of the redbars ghosting around.

Idk what a lick of any of that means but I figured wtf and Bing'd it, set-up my PS4 with a static IP then set it to dmz. So, what's the appropriate duration of time or number of matches until I should notice anything positive?

PS4 Connection Test consistently saying my speeds are about as good as they're gonna get, but I gotta say I played one match afterward and all this served to do is get me hot at the hard redbar oval office in the lobby where prior I'm far more like, "Yeah, dawg, same. No worries."

Like, it sounds really good and surely is but so long as you're playing Spaniards, South Americans, Latinos, Germans, Carnival Cruise Ships and the like, poo poo is still gonna blow big floppy donkey dick.

Ok. So lets just say that you are....

Actually. I do recommend rolling in a 5 man rather than 6. With a 5 man you can get a natch going with as little as 9 in the lobby.

Or just play trials.

I do have a static ip for my PS4 and its in the dmz.

Yeah no SBMM is terrible, especially with the lack of dedicated servers, but I do think there are probably a lot of people out there with decent Internet and poo poo home networks that could potentially see a ton of improvement.

What's funny is that they may not want to. The week or so I forgot to fix my poo poo and I was getting consistent red bar connections, I was having games where I was going 2, 4, and 5 k/d and I am most def a .9 kind of dude, and I didn't even realize my network was the issue because I have a fiber connection and I don't usually play when there's a ton of other network traffic happening in my house.
