SendNukes Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 It's been quite some time since I've played warzone because I'm literally getting connection symbols while jumping forward and skipping every few seconds for the entire game. I know its not everyone that has these issues.. My question is: ha anyone found a remedy for this? Ping assist to servers with low ping ONLY hasn't fixed this for me. Geo filter to connect to servers someone closer to me hasn't fixed this for me. Anyone? It's not my internet. Cold War plays perfectly for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted December 28, 2020 Administrators Share Posted December 28, 2020 Sorry I don't quite follow, if connecting to servers close to you fixes it then that's good right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RiotControll Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 It's server depending. Packet burst appears when the servers hoster carriers have depleted their peering capacity. So data packets get thrown away or queued at the major exchange points. Telia/Cogent/GTT are notoriously known for this. They won't extend their peering capacities at the major exchanges points because it costs money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've watched plenty of streamers, plenty of personal friends, and people I cod groups...all of them don't have these issues. And if they do, it isn't very often. My internet is as optimized as I can get it at this point... and the game runs super smooth in cold war Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N3CR0 Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 One thing I have always noticed is when someone sponges my shots, the killcam nearly always shows the burst symbols for that player. How come the odd occasion I get them symbols, I don't become a sponge? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted December 29, 2020 Administrators Share Posted December 29, 2020 I'd actually suggest trying to force servers further away from you and see if they give you a better experience at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just want to figure out how to play without lag let me put it like this. on mw multiplayer i rarely see the packet burst which is the 3 orange boxes, but when i play warzone i see it all the time and it is super laggy. CW plays good until sbmm kicks in. every other online game is fine. i have better connection in pubg, bfv and fortnite than ill ever have in COD, mind you i used to have perfect connection on wifi on cod which is strange. a piece of advice dont break your head with having a good connection in COD all the time.

I have both a 4g connection with ee and adsl. Adsl connection is perfect on both games where as the 4g is fine on coldwar but not WZ.

blackfirehawk Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 Very simpel.. Paketburst is Not a Connection issue you get the Paketburst Symbol when you are CPU bottlenecked (near 100% usage) and the Client (your PC/console) drop Network Pakets becouse It cant process them in time If you are on PC.. the adv.options.ini File has a workercount setting.. how many threats of your CPU are Used by the Game.. Test a different value that Match with your CPU. If you are on console.. you cant do anything.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So im basically unable to enjoy Warzone because it is still on same servers and engine.. Otherwise.. I have a good experience on any other game. These servers are poor as shit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have an Xbox Series X and had this problem for about a month on MW and Warzone, but not Cold War. Constant packet burst and it pisses me off. Have some videos of it too. You can take a look and see if we have the same issue. I've contacted Activision support multiple times about it, they say they will have to "refer it to their other team to diagnose the issue." I've also done the same with Microsoft support, and they say it's on Activision's end. Not sure it entirely is though, because it works fine on Cold War, and this didn't happen on my Xbox One S. 12-30-2020_9-01-32_PM-tzcmj0x3.mp4 12-30-2020_9-01-33_PM-h00dwmdw.mp4 12-30-2020_9-01-34_PM-e4l2pno2.mp4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ozymandias_ Posted January 4, 2021 Share Posted January 4, 2021 I have this same exact issue and have had it since I've started playing the game, it occurs for me on PS4 Pro and Xbox Series X. My PS5 will be here today or tomorrow and I will test it there as well but my expectation is that it will still persist. I work in IT / Cloud so I've done a TON of experimenting with different things in order to see what helps and what doesn't because up until I got the R2, my CoD WZ experience was complete TRASH. Now after getting the R2, my K/D has risen nearly .1 points (doesn't sound like a lot but I play a lot, so it takes time) and I have already doubled my amount of wins in less than a month than I had previously since starting the game. I don't have a 100% pure fix but here are some things that helped me personally, not a one size fits all and I still see the symbols but the in game impact is negligible as I still get kills quickly most of the time. - Location - I live on US East coast, however I play on west coast servers (Seattle has the best performance for me and have at least 3 or 4 wins on those servers). There are servers much closer to me but the in game performance is not as good. - QoS / Congestion Control - Limit your connection as much as possible while still keeping your internet functional. I have 900 Mb down / 40 Mb up - using congestion control if I limit my entire network to say 1% of that (9 Mb down / .4 Mb up), in game pings reach 30 ms - 40 ms sometimes which is unheard of for me. You can of course manually limit the device that you're gaming on using the bandwidth allocation and turn off excess sharing. - Traffic Prio - still experimenting with this some but right now I'm having good results with source TCP/UDP 3074 & dest 1-65535. For me, the biggest concern is hit reg and TTk - with these settings above last night had a trios win with 11 kills. Not bragging at all - just saying this to say that this router and settings have made this game much more enjoyable and finally fair to play. Whereas before I knew that something was off and playing against a stacked deck where nothing is on your side is not fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whereas before I knew that something was off and playing against a stacked deck where nothing is on your side is not fun. Good info. It seems to be generally agreed upon that upload is best around .4-.5 upload when it comes to hit reg, etc.. For download, I've seen people recommend 2 mb, 1% of regular DL speeds, and even 21mb. Have you tested various download speeds and seen varying results? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
