Online play has become a disaster

Since you don't understand what people mean by latency issue, I'm gonna make it very basic for you.
You, the server or your opponent had a bad internet connection causing your screen and his screen to show completely different things.
The truth is, your guy was never actually safe but it took longer than usual for the input to be uploaded (Due to slow internet) and then subsequently downloaded to your ps4. If you've ever played a FPS online you will have experienced the "But i was behind a wall!!!" Same thing here, your character was still in the open to him. -
Rain is a part of the game. So is snow in some parts early in the season. There’s not a lot anyone can do to control it or prevent it from happening....
Internet is part of playing online. So are internet interruptions. There’s not a lot anyone can do to control it or prevent it from happening... (plus a ton of ISPs are handing out free internet to people during the whole COVID ordeal on top of many people being more active online; I’m sure it’s a possibility that could hinder some online performance in certain areas).
If I get in a freeze off, I take the opportunity to do something else: play with my dogs, checking my honey-do list, laundry, watch a movie, something else besides closing out the game, unless I honestly don’t care about taking a loss.
My biggest piece of advice for you would be to lighten up on the subject. If it’s that big of an issue for you, take it to social media. Call them out there instead of beating your dead horse on here. There’s a much smaller community on TSN to reach out to compared to twitter or something.

Funny how you guys blame everyone except the actual cheaters.

The reason you got the loss when you quit is because the game was frozen.
I. Didn't. Quit.
I. Was. Winning.
From the server’s point of view, you disconnected from the game, therefore it awarded the win to the other player. Had he left the match first, you would have been awarded the win.
Obviously your opponent was aware of this and left his ps4 on. Sometimes this goes on for hours and days. I’m not saying this is good, or fair, but just keep this in mind next time you’re in a freeze off.
If you value your time, you can leave and take the loss. If you care more about winning, go ahead and outlast your opponent.
A big part of why playing online is so challenging is the people. Unfortunately, no matter what changes are made to the game, there will always be those who seek to exploit.

You skipped my question earlier and who exactly is cheating? Are you saying the other guy made the freeze off happen? Everything you've talked about in this thread has been answered and you've been told why. As far as defending cheaters, no one is doing that at all,at least not from what I have read

Haha this kid just isn’t getting it. End of the day needs to realize it’s one freaking game that he lost. It sucks we get it. What do you want us all to do write a petition and get it signed by the entire community and sent to SDS to get you your win for a connection issue. We all understand and have been in ur shoes dude. No one cheated u experienced poor server issues. You didn’t want to wait which I wouldn’t blame you but the way the game works that gives u a loss. End of conversation end of thread. It sucks and u lost when u should have won. But guess what it’s a video game and ur still breathing. It’s ok.

It’s not just one game.

Haha it still a video game at the end of the day. Do you get paid to play it? If the answer is no then it’s ok. It sucks I know but still it’s a VIDEO GAME. We all feel the same as u but there’s nothing else to do. Maybe one day they will solve the problem but as of now u either sit there and wait it out and play Zero games until the other person quits or u say [censored] that sucks and move on. Trust me I’m as competitive as the next person but I remind myself daily that I’m not getting paid to play and it will be ok.

I still ask the same question you seem to want to avoid. If you knew nothing about freeze offs and if you didnt know quitting them got you a loss why did you spend A FULL HOUR waiting for it? If you didnt know anything about it, you would have just quit and moved on and then noticed that it didnt count. Why wait the whole hour?

America was winning at some point too.

Because knowing this game and the way it’s operated online I figured I might get screwed. Any other questions or do you just want to keep making excuses for a video game company?

@Nats19Champions said in Online play has become a disaster:
No, I didn't "lose." I was winning handily. And you make it seem like I just turned the game off the moment it froze; I waited a FULL HOUR. Amazing that anyone would defend this garbage.
Turned it off or waited!?!? Which one? Also as previously posted on this thread if you have played the game for 4 years you would havenread, posted or experianced the freeze off. 2 years before its been a slight issue. Saying 2 cause I took a 6 year hiatus from games itself..It hasnt happened to. Hardwired in. If you havent already, have you looked into internet setup and set the TV to 5ghz intead of 2.6 or something like that. At least 50 wins turned into losses last season. Booted once in 1 and half years since.Hope that helps fam.

- Happens when theres lag
- You might be the only person who does not know what a freezeoff is
Cetainly hes the only one.He was talking about 4 years.The anger or frustration is a clear indicator that " It was determined that was a lie" ( Holding paper and said in a Maury voice), and 1000 pct has not read a Show nation forum in those 4 years.

LOL, I havent made a single excuse for anyone I just asked you a pretty simple question. You however, if someone doesnt jump up to say you are tight, you try to lump them in with people who blindly see the game as great. I never have been one of those people in any way.
You are coming across as a whiny little child who didnt like something so you have to run all over the place crying that you feel cheated. You've posted in how many threads now whining about this one loss? This has been happening with this game since the beginning and all online games have issues yet you want people to believe that you didnt know anything about quitting a frozen game gives you a loss that you waited an hour before quitting. You have zero credibility because all you do is attack the people that have explained what happened to you but you still feel "cheated". Grow up and move on

Never seen a more stubborn guy like you on here... You turned off your PS4 first. It's a disconnect on your end. It sucks, but it wont change. That how servers works.
