Changing from console (D2) to PC (PUBG)


Recommended Posts

Hi team.

So the Duma has served me faithfully for Destiny and Destiny 2.  With the state of D2 on console, I have moved to playing PUBG on PC.

As I have no experience with the Duma and PC questions as follows:

1> Will port forwarding / hyper traffic help on PC?
1a> If these ports are the same, can you only have one rule per port to IP?
2> Are there any specific console settings that can be turned off.  EG - cloud server settings?
3> Are there any specific PC settings to turn on, or would looking up say a CS:GO config be applicable for performance?

I understand GEO filter will not work as we select the region of servers we wish to connect to and then game traffic is routed through Amazon servers in that location

TL/DR
Changed from console to PC
Any optimal settings?

Welcome to the best way to play games...

 

I don't port forward or use UPnP. Never had a problem with any games not working.

 

I only use congestion control and hyper lane because most PC games have a server browser.

 

As for pubg, I never tried it before but I'm sure you can get it to show the servers by adding your pc to the geo-filter and selecting xbox live service. Same goes for any other game... I wouldn't change any settings specifically for PC though. Everything should work the same.

Oddly enough I left PC as Destiny was only on console lol.  Upon my return, dropped a GTX 1080 into my old rig and over clocked the CPU it 1.0 Ghz and its running like a dream!

 

Should I remove my old console port forwards just in case any PC info comes in on them?

I don't know which ports are used by specific games but I never had any issues without port forwarding

1. I would use hyper traffic yes, just select the XBL service and should be good to go. You should be fine to disable port forwarding & use UPnP, that should open any ports that are needed.

1a. A port can only be forwarded to one IP yes. 

2. The Geo-filter, other than that no. You could leave it enabled with a wide enough radius so the server you connect to you're able to ping.

3. Other than what has been mentioned so far I can't think of anything else.

4. Can remove console port forwarding, you should be okay to leave them. Can always disable them and then that saves you making them all again when you play the console.
