@apostolateofDOOM I was playing ranked today and instead of my usual closest server London, Belgium had the lowest ping and no packet loss. Towards the end of the session it was getting a bit laggy esp noticeable in the lobby. So I closed the game and tried to restart it but kept getting errors, code leaf. So I shut the game down again and tried Fortnite which was fine. 😃
@apostolateofDOOM playing ranked with yt just now in our first game. He is on his phone hotspot and I'm on the usual mobile broadband. Enter the match and get as far as the jumpship, then got thrown out tried to reconnect but no. Last game summary shows as the previous match I played, not the one I was ejected from. Then message comes up that member of my party ie yt disconnected, so I get a 10 minute penalty! A first for me. Why would I get kicked out of the match if yt got dc?
Yt comes running down corridor saying that he got dc and then 2 code errors, code leaf and code net. And he also has a 10 minute penalty.
@OldTreeCreeper I understand you both getting a penalty if you were premade but as to why you were thrown out if on separate connections, i don't know.
I played a little ranked yesterday and got from plat 2 to diamond and bullet mode from either DDOS or dog poo backend issues really shows this game up. It's not just the dead or ddos'd servers but the inconsistency between matches which is sometimes fine and playable but it's clearly not putting me in or even around UK half the time, for matchmaking i assume. Weirdly, connection shows it's always around 15 ping and everything else really low with no packet loss but runs complete garbage and only changes (for better or worse) when i join a new match.
@apostolateofDOOM separate connections from seperate providers. I'm on xbox, yt on pc. The only conclusion is that this error happened on the server end. That's why I mentioned it here.
I'm usually on around 70-80 ping with 0-2%pl, I'd be a predator at 15 ping 😃
@OldTreeCreeper Nah, you can't abuse the ''intended latency features'' then. 😉
How stable does FN play? I never played it but it sounds like they don't have nearly as many issues as Apex when it comes to backend servers and such.
It's still shocking how different the game feels each match. I played a little bit last night and half way through D3 now, solo hot dropping and w keying into fights so you could probably make masters if you play for points and push for it. I'm playing really badly compared to before (more risk taking and slow reacting, just playing quite casually with a beer 🍺 😃) so if i can slowly climb when hardly playing then anyone dedicated with the time or premade should be able to now.
They really should give pred a higher RP cost compared to masters now we have more obtainable RP and remove this top 750 per platform rubbish. It should split diamond and master between those that can climb and those that barely got there making it better for everyone in their respective tiers and encourage them to play more if their goals are potentially obtainable.
@Vdstrk You're welcome. I'll be adding more in the near future but making the most of Easter break and half term while kids are off and the suns out.
Rare sight in the UK. 😛
