Just played on my PS4 for about two hours no issues what so ever.
I guess you were lucky and didn’t play during the 8+ hours today when the servers were really crappy due to “an outside issue” like many others today and found it quite annoying and stopped playing. Glad your time today wasn’t affected by these issues
Not surprised. BGP was identified as the weakest link in the Internet at a talk I attended in 1998.
For those still experiencing problems, I’m not surprised, either. Unfortunately, I can’t offer any expert help. But keep in mind that all the networks that took on the incorrect routing information have to clean it out before things will really get back to normal. And none of us have any clue which or how many networks there are between us and the GoW servers at any given time. I’m not even certain they’re in Australia – though if they were, it could explain why it seems like only GoW is affected for some American and/or European players (because they don’t normally connect to Australia for any other reason).
