as i said before ping is only a very gross network tool. It tells you the time it takes to get to a set node, and back to your computer.
Its the equivalent of phoning a guy up to see if he'll go outside and see if its raining where he lives.
Wireless isn't but, for some things, but online PvP games is not on that list dude.
I wish more people took this more seriously, as its bringing the game down for everyone

Edited by Snow: 8/27/2016 9:44:59 PMYou realize most modern routers compensate for wireless latency and there's no difference in speed, right? Again, you would hold a valid argument, if this were 2009. As for stability, Destiny requires a small internet connection that most routers can't even dip to the low point, and unless your house is getting nuked or your house is a giant electromagnet, your wifi will not be affected. One last thing, Ping is a gross network tool??? What!? It literally tells you your latency, which is what causes the delays. This argument alone makes me want to leave this thread. But I have to state, I'm not arguing about which is better. Wired is better, but to say "never go wireless because it destroys the game" is completely false. Even if my connect WAS slower than yours, it would be by a few ms, which your body and mind wouldn't even have time to react to, which wouldn't affect the outcome of the game :)

Edited by SkinlessGorgon: 8/28/2016 11:17:53 AMYou do realise that most people use an ISP routers that were made 6 years ago, or haven't actually touched their router since they put it in in 2009? Also your understanding of wireless signal interference is just wow dude. Even most of the modern "gaming" routers state that the 1GB ethernet port is for gaming. Also I know the PS4 has the worst possible wifi chip on the market. Unstable as shit. I'm not sure about the xbones, but I;m sure its much the same quality. While your router may be the best wifi on the market, your consoles is using 4/5 yo tech and not the current AC standards and it doesn't even use a 5gHz network. Have fun in your moms basement

Well, thats how it works on the internet. Assume everyone is full of shit, and that everyone is always wrong

[quote]You do realise that most people use an ISP routers that were made 6 years ago[/quote] This is a bigger problem than anything else you have mentioned. [quote]Have fun in your moms basement[/quote] Very mature. Insult someone who disagrees with you by claiming they live in their mom's basement. You take this way too seriously.

Thank you. I've been trying to tell this guy the same thing.
