Theslayer1995 Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 Hi, I just purchased the R1 so I was wondering will it work for BF4 ? I mean help with the hit detection and make it consistent. I've seen many COD threads but not many on BF4 so was it worth purchasing ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted June 9, 2016 Administrators Share Posted June 9, 2016 Hey, welcome to the forum! Whilst I haven't specifically tested it with the game myself I remember specifically several people here saying it works with BF4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theslayer1995 Posted June 12, 2016 Author Share Posted June 12, 2016 I can confirm it doesn't work with battlefield 4, I mean it's the exact same as my router my isp gave me, I don't feel a difference at all and I'm pumping half a mag into people and they just look at me and kill me like it's nothing. Can I get a refund please as its not worth £150 unless I'm playing COD or destiny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What was your ping to the server when you were having that problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theslayer1995 Posted June 12, 2016 Author Share Posted June 12, 2016 Ping to the server was between 15-35, i get these pings on all EU servers on BF4, but thats not the problem, the problem is HIT DETECTION because its in consistent just like my old isp router so i thought with net duma it would be consistent but it isnt. in BF4 ping doesnt mean anything, it all about hit detection because u can have 10 ping and bad hit reg and over 100 ping but always 4 shot kills ..

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted June 13, 2016 Administrators Share Posted June 13, 2016 Are you using the Geo-filter to get those EU servers? If so you will be getting them more consistently with the duma. If you're getting a low ping like that then it is doing it's job. Are you also using congestion control & hyper traffic? All devices should be connected to the R1. 70/70 anti-flood with console in hyper traffic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theslayer1995 Posted June 13, 2016 Author Share Posted June 13, 2016 OK so i have virgin media 200/12, i did a network test on net duma and get exceptional on spikes and good on everything else. My ping is low on the BF4 EU servers which i find using the server browser. They have been low even on my ISP router. My problem is hit detection which was inconsistent on my ISP router and it feels the EXACT same on the net duma, not even 1% different. I got my PS4 on hyper traffic and im using congestion control which in my opinion doesn't even matter because when i set it to 5% i get same hit detection to when i set it to 85% so thats pointless. Got 75/75 on anti flood but tried different numbers but they make no changes. i just need good hit detection on BF4, ive tried everything. in BF4 ping doesnt even matter, u can have 100 ping and kill in 4 bullets and have 15 ping and shoot whole mags into people and they just sponge ! I just got this router for BF4 and it doesnt work, all i see on the forums is about cod and destiny etc and how good the geo filter is ( useless in BF4 because of server browser ) so for BF4 this router isnt all that special and thats the game i play lol.

Zennon Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 OK so i have virgin media 200/12, You may not like to hear this but Virgin is the worst gaming ISP in the UK. Download ping plotter https://www.pingplotter.com/download/ Type bbc.co.uk into target and press go, do this at peak time File : save image.

Theslayer1995 Posted June 13, 2016 Author Share Posted June 13, 2016 You may not like to hear this but Virgin is the worst gaming ISP in the UK. But my pings are nice and low and i hardly get jitter .. that is what frustrates me knowing my connection is good but my hit detection is bad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ColonicBoom Posted June 16, 2016 Share Posted June 16, 2016 Here are the results .. Hi Slayer, We need to see a longer pingplotter graph than that, that's only 1 minute of data. Really we need to see an a couple of hours of peak time (like 6-9pm) while people are not hammering your home network. When you run it again then right click on the graph and you can select a different time-scale for the graph(. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Netduma Staff Netduma Jack Posted June 17, 2016 Netduma Staff Share Posted June 17, 2016 As said above, a longer graph would give us a better idea of your problem and how to fix it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theslayer1995 Posted June 17, 2016 Author Share Posted June 17, 2016 here is for an hour, but i dont get what this will help with because if my connection was on point in the first place i wouldn't need to spend £150 on the netduma. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted June 19, 2016 Administrators Share Posted June 19, 2016 We're looking for issues that is beyond the control of the router. It does seem to me that you get a little bit of packet loss with a few spikes here and there which could be causing your issues. Zennon is the forum guru when it comes to ping plotter so would wait to see what he advises but I would suggest showing this to your internet provider and seeing if they can improve on it.

Zennon Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 There is 4% packet loss on the last hop which is the destination hop which shows you have packet loss. Jitter or packet loss are a major factor in making games unplayable I would run some more tests peak and off peak some to bbc.co.uk some to twitter.com. You could send them to Virgin but cable has an inherent problem with jitter my suggestion is to move to fibre obviously you this is just my opinion. Hopefully some other Virgin users that have moved to fibre will comment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
