Unpopular opinion

This is an unpopular opinion; bit I'm going to say I anyway:
If the ONLY way you can play online is by using WiFi; then you shouldn't be able to at this game.
Sitting in a [censored] freeze-off because my opponent, who admitted to using WiFi, refuses to quit; even though he is down 4-0 in the top of the 3rd.
And of course it's the one game that I've tried to play to get a Win with a Cardinals SP, so I don't have to play online AND play a 9 inn Play vs CPU game to finally unlock SS Wainright.
So now I have to sit and wait for someone to finally quit so I can get my 35K in XP.

My wifi is fine and I don’t get in to freeze offs.
I can also D/L things in the background without experiencing lag or freeze offs in The Show or other games.
-
I can almost guarantee wireless doesnt cause freeze offs. Disconnects from time to time yeah. Maybe you will get lucky and he loses connection on your freeze off.

I understand that. But EVERY single freeze off that I've experienced this year has been when my opponent is the Home the and they confirm that theyre on WiFi.

This is getting call of duty up in here. I guess a wired connection makes you better? I'm just asking. Basically I need to build studio to play? What's the world coming to when baseballs not the American past time.
-
I've used wifi this year and last and between both years I've been in 2 freeze offs.
-
I use WiFi and have experienced exactly 1 freeze off in 3 years.

Ping is everything.

That's because most people use wifi. That's just how most people's set ups are. Way easier. The majority isn't on monitors at a desk with everything hardwired like me and some others.

I know zero people who play console games or PC that use wifi. Literally zero.

If you don't have the bandwidth to play online gaming and download something in the background then YOU are the problem. 10-15 mbps is all you need to play online game. So if you have 100mbps internet plan then simple math tells you that you have the bandwidth to support both.... and in the end the actual connection/routing/infrastructure of your internet is much more important than the D/U speeds. So many ISPs have highly congested networks that cause sluggish gameplay. Xfinity for example has way too many people on the string of IPs available. eg. 192.168.1.1 domain and then the IPs it can hand out 192.168.1.2 192.168.1.3 etc etc.
But yeah..... its 2021. Almost every ISP basic starter internet plan has enough bandwidth to support online gaming and downloads via another device.

Ok... so you know everyone that I know? No. You dont. I KNOW 0 PEOPLE who use wi-fi to game online. It's not hard to setup a hardwire. Install ethernet outlets or if you cant do that just get a powerline adapter.

Same here, but I also know that we are in the minority.

I'm pretty sure you have a causal co worker that you don't really talk to that has wifi go a head ask every person you know someone will say yes do it do it now

I had a friend who complained about choppiness and lag playing CoD awhile back. I came in with my truck and tools and hardwired his console; night and day.
-
I use my internet hardwired with good upload and download speeds. Unfortunately my ping is somewhat high and it makes playing this game online difficult at times.
-
To be honest, I wouldn't say this is an "unpopular opinion", I would say it's an ignorant one. My WiFi is faster than most people's wired connection. I run a MESH wireless network with 3 AP's and get over 600 Mbps on my wifi devices throughout my house. My ping times are very low.
-
I use WiFi.
There you go
