Midwest Server Issues?

I’m having such an issue with ping right now and matchmaking. (Takes a lot longer to find a game this past week) Feel like I’m losing my mind.

Played all year on 22-28 ms(with my ping limit set at 30ms) and now I can’t find a game less than 40ms(with the same setting for searching) changed nothing , wired fiber internet (google fiber , Omaha NE) 

My speed test on my computer is 1ms 925 down and 930up - my Xbox is hard wired, I reset my console, re downloaded the game, reset my internet, and even changed cables. 

I reached out on Reddit and found another Midwest player with the same issues.

 

i was wondering if something happened this past week to the satellite servers in (Denver, Minneapolis,Chicago) 

 

thanks,,

Just annoyed can’t play the game competitively on 40+ ms… 

 

anyone else having issues in the Midwest?

  • It's probably having to grab people from further away. Remember that two weeks ago they took away offline rewards to try and force people online specifically because queue times are high, because nobody wants to play anymore. I wouldn't count on your experience getting better.

    Fair enough, just seemingly happened overnight for me. If that was the case shouldn’t I still connect to my close server (22-28ms) every once in a while as opposed to 40+ms ?

  • It happened overnight because there was a massive backlash against changes and thay lead to even more people bouncing off the game rapidly. That, on top of anything else that may be going on with personal connections could lead to this. You can also check your settings in game, maybe something changed in the options that let you select maximum ms you'll accept.
