I have a pretty bad internet connection (not my fault, my state has a very bad server) How do I check if I was host banned.

MBPS: 0.43 (surprisingly it actually dosent lag most of the time, even with such a low MBPS matchmaking works fine)

Sounds to me like you have a ping problem. Sorry, that sucks I know where you are coming from. Before I had Verizon FIoS I would never get host too and now I get it all the time. Is it as bad in other games?

Wow. Just wow. What a rarity. You sir have defied all chance and posted an intelligent comment in a thread previously branded as "useless trolling and whining". A helpful intelligent reply.

Yes, I have noticed out of my speedtest results pings are a bit high while my upload and download speeds are epic. While pings arent great, they are not terrible either. However the combination of average ping to distant states + Bungie matchmaking putting me with kids from Canada/Mexico/Cali constantly has resulted in terrible gameplay and constant bulletfeedback.

Then search with friends that live locally. If all of you live close together 1 of you will most likely pull host, or you will be matched with others that live near you, therefore getting a good game.

Running more tests now...

NC to Florida - 36ms ping (good)
NC to NewYork - 64ms ping (meh)
NC to Cali - 100 ms ping (waaa)
NC to Mexico - 71 ms ping

Actually they dont look all that bad. Ofcourse I didnt ping Netherlands/Austria/Germany and I was paired with them in the 2 games I tried playing this morning.


None of those are bad...

Vancouver to Miami Fl - 278ms ping
Vancouver to Ashville, NC - 110ms ping
Vancouver to Cali - 34ms ping
Vancouver to Mexico city Mexico - 114ms ping

Also, I'm not saying mine are either.

Why are you crying about matching Netherlands, Canada etc?
It's not illogical to match a player from the Netherlands when searching good connection considering that the Netherlands have some of the best connections around.
I search good connection, get 7 europeans in the game and the one west coast American pulls host, is that fair? No but i deal with it

Edit: i don't doubt that Bungie has seriously messed up with the netcode and how they choose host etc, but crying about it doesn't do anyone any good

Looks like we both gots to let it go. He's gotten help. But he would've gotten help sooner if he wasn't such a jerk and made some sense.

Am i the only one who actually watched the film?

Yeah i wont lie. He is a troll, but he has a POINT.

He clearly made perfect shots and because of bull -blam!- lag they didn't register. hes complaning because perfect shots dont matter online.

I feel your pain OP. We can only hope that the new improve netcode is better and that the DMR has better hit detection.
