DARK BAWGS Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 I came across a YouTube® (NerosCinema) that put up a vid saying there are no dedicated servers in BO3. I thought that there were and I wanted to comment on his error but thought perhaps you all could clarify it for me. Here is the link: I welcome your input, thanks.

Dillinger Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 Never heard of the guy, so I can't comment on his stuff. I have very little patience for the YT CoD community in regards to "information". Yes there are dedicated banks. All over the place. Some are what appear to be overflow banks, but the standards are always there (Illinois, Kansas, LA, San Fran, Seattle, Florida) unless you get in a P2P host circle-jerk. I have no idea how I get in and get out of them, but I can chain several games together of P2P HOSTS, even when changing between lobbies. If he has seen that, and is a good enough player to cause rage quits, I can see how he "incorrectly" came to that assumption. But he's wrong. There are dedicated servers, which is why YT is a terrible place to get game info. Or get your shit put out on when it's completely wrong because no one did any fact checking.

bagsta69 Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 Since launch I can count the games I've played p2p on one hand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dillinger Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 Since launch I can count the games I've played p2p on one hand Really? I have a spreadsheet I have been tracking for a few weeks in testing some settings and I have a litany of them. More than 20 for sure. I don't know how I get into them, or how they keep popping up, though I have been rating the hosts highly if the game plays decent. If I could solve that, I'd be king for a day around here....LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bagsta69 Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 Yeah really, I used to use quite a big filter covering France and Germany and Netherlands but now I annual cover uk and get south coast dedi all the time with 9-12 ms ping. The few p2p I have had have been horrible or they never started and everyone got kicked Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toby jugs Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 Since launch I can count the games I've played p2p on one hand me too, and i can count the amount that actually played properly without a failed migration on one finger.... .....probably the middle one lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted January 9, 2016 Administrators Share Posted January 9, 2016 There are definitely dedicated servers, he is right when he mentions it is a hybrid system but what he/most don't seem to realise is its mostly dedicated server games compared to P2P games.

cranium2001 Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 I haven't seen one p2p yet to be honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
secretface Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 the first month or so I always was able to rate host though it was always shown in Kansas, I think that was just a hiccup in the auto cloud for me though. But it always acted like PvP though like said I had a lot of host migrations and got booted alot. Though the game played much better then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Macca65 Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 I haven't seen one p2p yet to be honest. Lol me neither Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dillinger Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 I wonder if I am somehow in the bad kids club or something and relegated to the left over games? LOL I have been testing all morning and about 40% of my games have been P2P in Nevade and California (Casting a wide net to check a theory Zennon has).

Alex Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 I have found that any time i connect to a player host, the connections in the lobby are horrible. everyone is on a 1 or 2 bar. i wonder if they use player hosts for the crappy connections so they dont bug up the dedicated servers? i only connected to them because i was having some issues with my internet at the time, hence why im coming to this conclusion.

Lee Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 Unfortunately these days Youtube is full of click bait, sponsored promotional videos and misinformation. Yes there are dedicated servers, spread all over the world.Next time you're in a lobby check the number on the top right corner. If there is an "e" on the end of it, you're on a dedi.

JConnor Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 The reason he probably made this video is because his viewers may be living in low populated areas and being put on P2P servers more than dedicated servers? That's the problem with CoD: It's not consistent in terms of servers across titles. There were a lot more P2P in AW, from my experience whereas I have only had one, or two host migrations because I always play on the KC server, or other Duma favorites. This was before I bought the Netduma, and had better internet, so this quality of connection(s) may factor into what kind of host you are put on to play? Hmm...
