fatal0Efx Posted February 21, 2022 Share Posted February 21, 2022 So in Destiny 2 I used to be able to set my geofence out in the middle of the ocean to ensure no one could connect to me, or vice versa, in order to do things by myself, like strikes or roaming. This worked because D2 is on a p2p type system vs dedicated servers for game play instances. For some reason that's not working anymore. The matchmaking for strikes takes a long time, as per normal, because it can't find people but instead of just starting anyway, eventually some people in random countries are connected ruining my plans. I've tried several times to no avail. Any clue as to why? How am I able to connect with these people? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted February 21, 2022 Administrators Share Posted February 21, 2022 They changed the way their matchmaking works quite awhile ago, as such it is not possible to match solo or against friends any more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fatal0Efx Posted February 22, 2022 Author Share Posted February 22, 2022 Does Netduma simply do nothing for D2 now? Is my router basically becoming useless as other games do stuff like this and move to dedicated servers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't do nothing, you can still filter servers just like other games, you just cannot match solo / against teammates which was never the intention of the Geo-Filter just a side affect.

fatal0Efx Posted February 23, 2022 Author Share Posted February 23, 2022 I understand that isn't the intention. My point is both sides are based on the filter area, so how can one work but not the other? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not entirely sure why, it's clearly successfully connecting to an SDR server somehow, maybe this is outside of what is classified in Geo-filter. As this occurs after a long period of waiting, it's not really an issue as you'll still be able to filter local servers quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oRaGaMi Posted February 23, 2022 Share Posted February 23, 2022 I am able to load into tower solo so I still think it works, but not as previously intended. Netduma Fraser 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
