Do you notice no response from EA - We are waiting
EA always asks for video poof - there it is LOL
Its trash. Im a Division 2 player, try to play most of my games on weekends. I cant ever get a good connection.
With so many people in the GTA, you think they would have a server local to EST canada or at least, allow us to connect to one... Its insane.
Im going to check this daily and create a calendar and time map. Eventually I will understand how EA sports Server Routing works depending on day.
im also goign to create a lowe overall team to see if there is a difference, that will tell me if routing is tied to team overall/ win stereaks.
Im goign to crack this one and if there is something scripted going on where we are all being routed to crap servers because it makes us spend more....It will be apparent.
My Theory: Execs employee data scientists to do research and modeling.
- If we allow players to connect to local servers early in the week (Monday to Weds) they will win, experience some great game play and feel good. In order to mitigate rewards given out we just decrease rewards from this mode and only make it achievable to players who play all 25 weekly games before champs.
-If we route them to distant servers on Thursdays through to Sunday after some early week success, they will tolerate the losses, wonder what happened, and argue amongst themselves saying "get good".
In both instances from a psychology aspect, your chasing a dangling carrot. Those conditions are similar to those that make people addictive gamblers. They spend money with the perception that they have more control of the outcome then they do.
Guys, im going to make a reddit thread on this. If anyone has a geofiltering router like I do.. lets work together to get some data on how this routing stragety works.
Hopefully, @EA_Aljo can come in here and forward your info to the right people but I somehow doubt anything will be done about this. This is likely an incredibly complex issue and I doubt it's even being done on purpose. That said, this kind of thing should be unacceptable.
