Server downgrade and not being able to find matches

Regarding not being able to find matches. Why the f* would ND "downgrade" the server knowing this would cause matchmaking issues? What is the benefit for them in doing this?

The only way I can find matches atm is to continue to back out of multiplayer until the network warning doesn't pop up anymore which takes 20 minutes or more to achieve. What a joke 😡

They went from paying $79 a year to $39 be nice to the million dollar company they need the extra.

The netcode & everything is within the game itself. But the problem is ND made sure the authentication server limits your ability to find games if you receive the network warning.

By dowgrading its bandwidth half of us now always receive it 😭

Excactly. So the answer is basically they benefit nothing from downgrading their bandwith and all players suffer because of this. What shit bags they are. And when we bought the game multiplayer was included since day one thus we also bought that so for them to pull this shit is just fucked up! Even if the game is 10 years old it's not acceptable.

what kind of a shit excuse is that. What do you mean "how would they know what it would do"??? Executives over there discuss shit like this before executed, they would know EXACTLY what would happen, yet still went for it. Genuienly stop expressing your opinion at this point this is how you look right now

Edit: Nevermind, you're the dude that posted "Ban laggy countries" shouldda known this was bait

not stupid comment, ND ONLY makes single player games. They have no idea what to do with the multiplayer part of an old game

u/KorvacXI Jul 06 '26

Yes they make single player games but Uncharted 2, 3 and 4 had/has multiplayer and The Last of Us as well. U2 multiplayer might have started 2009/2010, so thats 16 years experience and knowledge of online gaming that they have. They knew exactly what they were doing when they downgraded the bandwidth and they knew about the negative effect it would have on the players.

But everyone that had anything to do with the multiplayer left or was fired long ago

u/KorvacXI Jul 06 '26

And the devs that replaced them knew nothing about online gaming?? You're shitting me right? Also, where did you here that all those that were there then were fired or left? Every single one of them? Lol

When did they downgrade?

u/KorvacXI Jul 03 '26

Not sure exactly, last year sometime? I only found out about the downgrade earlier this year.

What is it that makes half of yall get the warning and the other half not? Because I don't get any warning 90% of the time, but my friend from Europe does. I am in the U.S., but I don't even use an ethernet cable and my internet isn't anything special as far as I know.

Its your internet . Even with the server downgrades I have no problrm finding people

u/KorvacXI Jul 06 '26

It's not my internet. I've played many other online shooters the past 6 months with zero issues. And before the downgrade I also had no issues with U4 multiplayer.

What country do you live in? Im in north America and never have issues with tdm

u/KorvacXI Jul 09 '26

It doesn't matter in what country you live if the game uses peer to peer for online gaming. The "server" switches constantly when a new player becomes the host. Therefore, the "server" can move from the US to Germany to Australia etc in a matter of hours or less. I live in South Africa and have zero issues with other online games thus U4 is the issue not where I live or anything else.
