Buddy, I had ATT Fiber at my last address and loved it. I moved to a larger city and guess what, no fiber at this address. They kept my bill the same but my Internet was literally 10x worse. ATT strung me a long and said Fiber was coming for two years, and it never did. I switched to T-Mobile because the only other option was Comcast and I despise them. This T-Mobile internet is infinitely better than my former ATT service. The download speeds and upload speeds are better, and I have no buffering when streaming, and every other video game on every console I own works flawlessly. You just have no idea what you’re talking about. This is an issue on SDS’s side. Not T-Mobile.
People from a variety of internet providers in a whole bunch of different countries, not just the USA, play this game without issue. If it was a problem with the game and not your internet provider, why does the problem only impact your internet provider’s customers?
It would be nice if Sony addressed the issue, even if addressing it means just stating there is nothing they can do if there is nothing they can do. But when it’s a problem with only one internet provider in one country, it certainly seems odd to act like the internet provider is definitely not the issue.
This!

You’re comparing streaming with P2P gaming. Mobile Internet has tons of dropped packets that have no bearing on your streaming, but is critical to a game that requires milliseconds timing. If you play CoD with that I can guarantee people probably see your character moving around like a strobe or teleport.

Gonna have to disagree with you there. I’ve prestiged multiple times in Black Ops 6, never experienced one instance of lag, nor have I ever seen it in any replay clips or had any friends or other players comment on my connection. Like it or not, the simple truth is MLB the Show is the one and only game that doesn’t work on the service, and T-Mobile blames the devs. I tend to believe their right due to my experience with literally every other game in the world.

I use T-Mobile home Internet. WiFi tower and have zero issues. I hope this stays true and the only reason I posted is maybe to help others...?

Saw someone post a "fix" on reddit, and it turns out, it actually worked. I've been responding to similar posts on reddit with people commenting how they can't play the show online with tmobile home internet:
If you have T-Mobile internet, plug it into a router that is VPN capable. Pay for a VPN service. I paid for NordVPN. Took about an hour to figure it out on the modem side with getting logged in through the VPN. I started out with 1 month of the most basic tier they had to see if it would actually work. It worked! Use a VPN through a router that's plugged into your TMobile modem. If it works for you, you can get pay up front for 2 years or 3 years of the vpn service. 3 years comes out to about $3 per month.

@solidsnake_222_PSN hey bud! you're the one I've been responding to on reddit. small world

Doin too much just get comcast if you’re serious about the game if you’re just an offline player than whatever will work I guess

"doin too much getting the only service you're able to get in your area to work with this game"
are people usually this obtuse?
-
Are you really trying to say that buying a new router is “too much,” but switching Internet providers altogether isn’t? That’s much more work my friend.

I've had T-mobile home internet for 3 years now. Also have had a PS5 for the same amount of time. Last year was perfectly fine, was able to play as many online games as I wanted. This year, I can't even load into any. I have deleted and redownloaded the game, this worked for one day, then the problems resumed. Tried that fix again a few days ago, didn't work at all anymore. I seriously doubt its T-mobiles problem if there were no such problems last year on the same device.

LOL. Whenever I see/hear someone use the word “obtuse” I think of the Shawshank Redemption.
See, it’s not so bad to be a square person…at least they aren’t obtuse. Sorry, math joke.
I know. I’m shallow. It’s a character flaw I choose to not work on.
Comcast is much more expensive than t mobile. You get what you pay for.

@solidsnake_222_PSN I’m just saying I like to play online myself personally it’s all just opinion based on my part but if I had a crappy service and then had to buy another device in hopes of helping that service instead of just purchasing good service that stands alone and helps me enjoy my online gaming experience I’d rather do that than do all the extras hoping and wishing it works so yes to me that’s doing too much I’d just bite the bullet and get comcast but that’s just me tho idk.
-
Sure, if any of what you said was true I would agree. However, my T-Mobile service isn’t “crappy.” It’s is a huge upgrade over my prior AT&T service. I have no lag when gaming, no buffering when streaming, and very fast upload and download speeds. The fact that SDS for whatever reason can’t get their game to work with T-Mobile doesn’t make them a bad service. It’s more of a poor reflection on SDS imo. If you haven’t tried their internet service, you really shouldn’t make assumptions and dump on it. But you do you bro.

@solidsnake_222_PSN if you took a poll anywhere in America your opinion/experience would be in the minority my man but do you
-
Basically the gist of this post is that you had good internet and switched to trash to save a few bucks and now its SDS fault that you have trash internet.

@Blind_Bleeder_PSN "You get what you pay for". Comcast is routinely ranked among the worst companies in America. I had Comcast for YEARS, and I can guarantee you it's not worth the cost.

Whatever. I have Xfinity and have no issues. The internet has been fantastic for us, and I live in the Sierra…

You just aren’t very bright, are you? First of all, I’m an attorney. I promise you I’m not hurting for money. Second, as I have said multiple times, my current Internet is a vast improvement over my former service. If I had fiber in my area, that would be a different story. Of course, if fiber were an option at my address I never would have upgraded to T-Mobile to begin with.

I also have xfinity and have no problems at all with it
