West Coast Ping Never Under 80ms?

Question

Hey my peeps,

I live in the SF Bay Area with gigabit internet (Comcast) and I cannot get into any games with less than a 80ms ping EVER. I check every single game and it is 80-100ms every single time. I’ve never had this issue before in any other CoD game.

Does anyone else have this issue on the west coast? I wonder if it’s a west coast server issue. Maybe SBMM is being prioritized over good connection (insanity)? Idk man but it really sucks because it is super noticeable in this game.

I am hard wired with a cat7 cable into an Orbi mesh system.

Thanks!

That's probably more you, bud. I live in the Bay as well and my ping never goes above 40 or so unless I play with friends and they're the host and I've got Xfinity wifi.

Can you explain? What do you mean it’s me?

As in like it could potentially be your connection, but I'm not sure

I can’t tell you for sure that your ping isn’t an issue on activision’s side, but I can tell you that I also live in SF, sunset district to be exact. I am also using Comcast, not sure which data plan, but I get around 20-30 pings, with occasional packet loss.

I'm central and my pings are 30-42, 50-69, 80-110. I ping google servers at 14ms. Under 30ms in any other game.

Open ports so matchmaking will find nearer players/servers
