Tripod Posted November 4, 2018 Share Posted November 4, 2018 Just upgraded to the XR500 from my old R1, never really had to deny peer hosts before, but tonight had the need to. Unfortunately it didn't work, not once but 4 times. I'd been running strikes no worries then got put with a pair of 2 degenerates just dancing and emoting in the spawn. So I figured Duma OS has the ability to deny peers may as well use it one these 2 to avoid landing back in the same strike. They were the only 2 on the geo filter map(no dedi), denied both and went to orbit. Launched in and got the same 2 people. Backed out, again same 2. This time restarted Destiny 2, to my surprise got the same 2 people. This time rebooted the router and restarted Destiny 2, yep you guessed it, the same 2 people. Does this feature actually work how it sounds, run into douchebags or laggy hosts in PvP, deny and avoid them, or not? Is there a setting I need to enable for this to actually do anything? If it doesn't actually prevent matching certain players what purpose does it serve? Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Admin Posted November 4, 2018 Administrators Share Posted November 4, 2018 Nothing you have done wrong - there’s a fix coming for this. Should be out very soon if you’re happy to wait. If not, please downgrade back until it’s released Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FaiNt87 Posted November 4, 2018 Share Posted November 4, 2018 This is one of the reasons I updated to the XR500 also. I wanted to use the Geofilter to 'target' people to connect too, have I misunderstood and thats not actually a thing? For example, I'm in the UK and a friend is South Germany; I've been trying to match him out in the world on Destiny 2 by setting the Geofilter to an 150 mile radius around his town in Germany. I haven't had success yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Admin Posted November 4, 2018 Administrators Share Posted November 4, 2018 Permanently blocking a dedicated server or player should absolutely be a thing - we just had to fix it in the firmware version. Hopefully you'll have it soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tripod Posted November 5, 2018 Author Share Posted November 5, 2018 Thanks, good to hear. Just as an aside I was testing adding friends who live oustide my set geo filter to my allow list, I found I could only name 5 listings. Further unique ID's could be added but even if named they would show up as a blank name. Deleting the "named" listings to 4 would then enable a 5th entry to retain its name in the persistent list. Seems like something that may need looking at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Admin Posted November 5, 2018 Administrators Share Posted November 5, 2018 Ah that's a great find. We will try to reproduce this to see what's happening. Thanks for letting us know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
