Ru2u Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 Quick question about Ping Assist; If I set my PA to let's say 50ms and drop my home location in the ocean and drop my radius as low as possible will that assure me to get hosts up to 50ms? I was told be another Netduma user that if the game can't find a host that low that it will gradually increase to hosts over the PA setting till it finds one. The reason I ask is because I've been using this technique for BO3 and I've been getting some pretty awesome lobbies but once in a while I would get a Dedi and ping it at 80ms even though my PA was set to 50ms Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parkrrr Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 Dedi's are the exception I think. You can't block (but that's coming in a update) them/rate them. That's a issue with BO3, and the Wizards at NETDUMA will have a fix for that soon. But theoretically, yes, if you put it at 50ms, it'll look for games around or below that ping.

UK_Wildcats_Fans Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 There is a fix that is currently in work see the topic below that should be released soon. http://forum.netduma.com/topic/9052-black-ops-3-update-upgrade-cloud-extras/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PharmDawgg Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 This works for me. Radius as small as it can be and Ping assist at 25. Like butter. Let Duma do its thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PharmDawgg Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 I still get those wtf moments. And in those instances when I get put in a laggy lobby (yeah lagging with a 30ms ping lobby - people just skipping) or a lobby above 50ms ping I just back out.

I was able to play 3 games and the last game was bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's above my PA (30ms) and it's stable, I'll play it. Once it starts to getting weird, I'm out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian88 Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 Anyone still connecting outside there geo? I've had mine set at 300m all night.. Strict mode on, pa 0, but all my games were 425, 350, 565, the latter was the only one that was dedicated.. Any suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuzzy clam Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 One thing I've noticed is sometimes I think I'm gonna have a great game...18 ms lobby and it turns out to be shit.And other times I think I'm gonna get punished...50 plus ms lobby and I have a great game. It's all so subjective as to who else is connected to your dedi and where their from,what their ping is and who's doing what on everyone's network at the time the gamer gets in your lobby and the game starts. Like I've always said so many variables that go into what makes a good or bad lobby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I've always said so many variables that go into what makes a good or bad lobby. I have found that I have better games with pings around 50-60mS. Games with pings around or lower then 30mS seem to be very inconsistent (or outright bad) for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
