Packet Boost? Packet Loss?

[civileng68]

What the heck? I've played this game daily with zero issues. Suddenly earlier this week or last, something changed (at least for me). I'm getting nonstop Packet Boost alerts everytime I go to shoot or get shot at. I've done everything I know to do through research online. Is this something anyone has just recently begun to notice?

packet burst and packet loss is an issue with cod servers because they've never gone past 30 tick rate servers when most games are running 60 tick rate servers by now. Higher skill bracket you get into, the more packet bursting you will receive. It's also coded in to the servers for cod

Yea - about two updates ago, game started playing great! Then - here come the packet bursts. Nothing has changed on my end at all. With these regulars updates, its almost become like clockwork. Game is laggy...plays like that a for awhile, here comes update...game plays great...about a week or so later, back to packet bursts.

Just sad COD has got people believing nothing is wrong with the game. Like what really explains that.

Sad...

Servers have been terrible for the past week, basically teleport/pack burst central out in these streets.

Their servers are being DDOS from cheaters

Activsion - January 17, 2025 - "We’ve seen community reports of increased “rubber-banding,” packet loss notifications, and server disconnects in recent weeks, especially in Ranked Play – and in certain regions where some players may not have access to as many servers as others." "new improvements have been made to Call of Duty’s server infrastructure this week to reduce targeted cases of malicious activities on our infrastructure and players"

so much lag but it's not lag, so annoying because I actually have great internet and no issues like this on other online games or services that would definitely slow up too if it was my stuff

Only solution is that you are not going to buy Activision's Games. And the packet loss problem is gone!
