brooklynK Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 Ive noticed that i cannot ping any destiny 2 sever in a southern california anymore. ive tried to use the ping heat map but its only showing my washington servers that has a way higher ping that im used to. is there an outage or is the california destiny server not working any more. i also connect to an asia server for some reason. my gaming experience has been bad since i cant ping that cali one anymore. any help would be great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Netduma Liam Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 Welcome to the forum! It may be that we need to push a cloud update. I can see that a couple of servers on there are failing so I'll let the team know! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brooklynK Posted November 15, 2021 Author Share Posted November 15, 2021 do you know how long it would take? how would i know that the servers are back up and running? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll see them appear in Ping Heatmap again. Once the team are able to capture it, it won't take long at all, they're just super busy at the moment! I'll let them know again.

Apologies, the team that update this have been incredibly busy recently so there's been some delays. Are you not still able to filter the server in Geo-filter? Even though you can't see it in Ping Heatmap, you should still be able to play on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brooklynK Posted November 26, 2021 Author Share Posted November 26, 2021 its not letting me filter it at all. what are the best geofilter settings to use for xbox games? i put the radius over my location with 1k km range Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted November 26, 2021 Administrators Share Posted November 26, 2021 What happens when you try to filter that shows it isn't working? That's usually what we recommend and either using Ping Assist at 30ms or on 0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brooklynK Posted November 26, 2021 Author Share Posted November 26, 2021 this is no server icon when i am in a game. the los angeles servers normally has a 12ms ping but now im stuck with washington servers with almost triple the ping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brooklynK Posted November 26, 2021 Author Share Posted November 26, 2021 liam noticed that the cloud servers were failing. this can be the cause of my problems. i just want things to go back to normal. theres enough problems with the game already, last thing i want to deal with is connection problems dealing with my router.

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted November 27, 2021 Administrators Share Posted November 27, 2021 The cloud issue he mentioned is relating to Ping Heatmap which just pings the servers, it's not to do with the Geo-Filter. Do this and see if it is better: Quit the application/game/client completely Remove device from the Geo-Filter Give PC PlayStation Device Type in the Device Manager (if on PC) Resync from the Geo-Filter Map menu Re-add the device to the Geo-Filter with the manual option Set up the Geo-Filter how you like Wait 2 minutes Boot up application/game/client Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamrock176 Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 I have a question why is it that server are showing as peer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted November 27, 2021 Administrators Share Posted November 27, 2021 Servers can be misclassified as peers if we haven't been able to classify them, it's purely aesthetic, it won't affect your ability to filter.

jamrock176 Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 You would think ping heatmap would work in conjunction with the geofilter. Lol I play destiny so filter mode isn't really a option for me since the change's to there server. My only option now is play and pray. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol I play destiny so filter mode isn't really a option for me since the change's to there server. My only option now is play and pray. Game servers don't respond to traditional pings, that's where the trouble lies really. On Ping Heatmap you're specifically initiating a ping to the server, we have a workaround for this but if they change servers which can often happen then we don't get a ping response and that's when it shows N/A. So then we have to retest the game and determine the new servers they're using, rinse, repeat. The Geo-Filter on the other hand reports active connections so when you're on the game it will show them regardless, now if the server changes to one we haven't classified before it will appear as a peer until we reclassify it but whether it appears as a peer or a server it is still Geo-Filterable. For Destiny as they are now server based you can still use the Geo-Filter - you just cannot match against friends or go in solo as you could previously.
