Network issues gave me a low priority and that is unfair

[prithvishewakramani]

I didnt leave by choice in my recent game and was getting disconnected due to network issues. Now i got a low priority for no reason and feel its a bit unfair . I rejoined the game about 4-5 times. I feel like there should be a counter to check how many times a person rejoined the game even after getting disconnected to show that they made an effort to join and let the player not get the low priority. In other previous games it took too long to connect back so i left and that was my bad and took the ban for it but this recent one was unfair.

The other players on your team shouldn't have to suffer because you have unreliable internet. if it was a one off thing then maybe the low prio was a bit heavy handed. but if its happening consistently you belong in low prio, get better internet is all i have to say.

yeah i checked the connection issues is only related to the game and nothing else. Like when i play the game the connection gets disconnected and everywhere else i have good wifi.

Check your router. I've had drops on a previous version (they went away), but depending on how they're unicasting and your specific port forwarding setup, you might get drops there. You can likely test this by watching live games, too. Load into a watch game, see if there's a recurring amount of time where the disconnect happens (mine was happening such that almost exactly 30 seconds after connecting all the characters would start running in place, and then 60 seconds after connecting the game would clean exit (not crash, but simply close) which I'm guessing was a 30 second connection timeout after the initial 30 seconds where things worked).

Dude if your using wifi for gaming you are always going to have a bad time. wifi can literally be disrupted by a single person walking around the house. you need wired connection for any kind of competitive gaming. no wonder your having connection problems if your playing on wifi. get yourself an Ethernet cord and plug that shit into your router
