Yellow Bar out of the blue as of 2 months ago on Destiny

[zProdiigy-]

Hello I bought the netduma over a year ago, maybe 2, and have had flawless game play with it. Up until 2 months ago everything seemed amazing. Then out of no where blam, a constant yellow bar. It could be in my head but I truly feel my game play has deteriorated. For example pre yellow bar I averaged well over a 2 kd. Since this magic mustard bottle appeared its been 1 to 1.5 kd. My shots don't feel crispy and seem to miraculously pass right through people. Maybe I'm just old now and my hand eye coordination is terrible. But any insight and help figuring out this problem would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!!!

Ensure you're using the Destiny profile or strict off, ping assist 0 and ~1000km radius. 

 

Have auto&bleeding edge cloud ticked and applied. If already selected hit apply to reflush the cloud.

Hi Fraser i have tried that multiple times. Along with factory reset.

I have 300 down and 25 up with a 23ms ping

My setup is comcast modem> netduma> ps4 hardwired * netduma is in modems dmz also tried with modem in bridge mode

Another setup i tried is arris sb6183> netduma>ps4 hardwired still same results

I have also tried using the destiny profile cc set to 70 70 share excess

Not familiar with destiny myself. Thought that game was p2p only? I know in bo3 if I'm not host and I join on someone's party I've yellow barred a few times which is crazy cuz I have 180/25. 19ms ping. . But jus depends on where server is I vamp closest to me..... .

Do u have another game to test? I haven't heard one good thing about destiny.

[zProdiigy-]

Yes it's p2p unfortunately, one can only hope hope year 2 has dedicated servers. It seem to not matter if I'm host or not. I'll be green then all of a sudden go yellow. I haven't tried any other game so I can't rule out it a destiny problem. Destiny is tho a great game. It does have its flaws. Bungie does a pretty good job at fixing them tho. People say bad things about but still play it.

[Slipknot31286sic6]

U know when servers went down other week in bo3 p2p was horrible and I was yellow bar. So maybe it's cuz it's p2p. Maybe someone else who plays destiny can incite on this. If u do speed test on dsl reports and test in netduma. Ping under 30. It's obvious the game. Sorry

[zProdiigy-]

The thing is tho it just recently started to happen. Before it was crispy as could be. That's what I don't understand.

Hi, Ive been playing for years and i dont believe those bars at at, its all about where the game sends you sometimes i can a patrol and im a Usa Server or the tower, PVpWell thats another story, as long your isp is good i wouldnt worry to much, Make sure congestion is set thhe same maybe, sometimes it makes moves accidentally, i dont no!

But its a odd game sometimes.

Download Pingplotter to diagnose issues upstream of your home network. If you notice any spikes or packet loss at a stop along the way and it's consistently bad, contact your ISP.

 

Run a DSL Report test to diagnose issues within your home network. Tweak congestion control up and down until you get A+ for Bufferbloat and A+ for quality. Speed is the least important factor for gaming, but you should get an A or A+ there.

Ping plotter is the only thing I have yet to do. My dsl report is an a+ a+. Once I have some time I'll run the ping plotter and see what that has to say. Thanks

[Netduma Fraser]

I assume you're using peer ping? What is the average ping you're getting? When you have a yellow bar is there a player(s) that have a higher ping?

[zProdiigy-]

With current yellow bar in fireteam of 3 the one ping is 70 the other 112

If you're playing in a fireteam, that may be what's causing the yellow bar.

 

What happens when you solo queue?

[zProdiigy-]

My above comment was me solo. Idk what is causing it. My download and upload nor ping doesn't seem to vary. I've had a comcast technician come out and test both the lines inside and outside of my house. There was no noise causing interference. Idk what else to do...

[Netduma Fraser]

Can you see those laggy players outside your radius or are they inside?

[zProdiigy-]

They are inside my radius.

[frustrated]

These yellow bars i feel are incorrect,same with green etc Red well its obvious what goes on there,although i have good connection and sometimes,i get the odd red bar,its your connection to the host,sometimes in the tower you can be red?oddly.I take no notice of these bars,as i just dont think there a good indication to your connection.

Its the game i feel.

[zProdiigy-]

Yes I do feel the same way. Ito just wierd how it'll only be me yellow baring ya know lol

[frustrated]

So Hard to understand i no, is your pvp gameplay effected by the connection,are you always yellow,i had this when i had myCc set at 70 for some reason,but if its not effecting you gameplay id not worry to much.

[zProdiigy-]

That's why I'm posting I defenitly feel it does effect my pvp play. Which is a big concern because that's my main focus in destiny
