Maximilian found a way to reduce LAG in MKX

[OnlineSkunk]

I think this is where you can get that router: https://netduma.com

Does anybody here have this router and what's your opinion about it?

 

[SamZ]

It should help with getting matched up with other decent connections, but it won't fix the underlying problem....the net "kode".

A shortcut to reduce lag in MKX: Don't play online.

 

[IrishMantis]

This actually sound pretty cool being a dictator of your ping allowance

How embarassing it's 2015 and this is still an issue

I hope NRS wises up in this department and doesn't pull a "Nintendo GameCube " because that got a VP canned

At least $920 to play a full game that functions online.

Ah now you can't count Consoles to be fair

As much as I respect max and his videos. This is ridiculous, as a router is not going to fix these issues (masking the real issue with how MKX is programmed on it's shoddy P2P 2008 connections), it may help filter bad traffic and adjust it to your preferences but the game is at fault at all angles online regardless.

Personally, I think this gives NRS an excuse now to tell people to upgrade their networking hardware, if they encounter online play issues. GTFO..........

It's going to cost me $200+27.90+82 dollars for me to be able to have a less laggy online experience

Um, no, actually this will pretty much fix the problems with MKX Online, as they are all related to lag. I mean, you'll still get a bit of frame drop, and you'll still get the clueless wireless people every now and then.

But to say it doesn't help immensely is simply false.

I received my netduma router last night. I posted my experience in this thread. So far so good.

0% chance he isn't getting a kickback for advertising this. Please don't fall for this stupid shit.

 

[getoverhere--->]

I already have a gaming router and its still shit

Are you using it to ban high ping matches?

 

[ChaosTheory]

Might be talking about GameCube opting out of the whole online-console thing. In other words, not considering it that important.

 

[ChaosTheory]

This is somewhat useful if you think the shittiest online mode (ranked) is the best online mode, I guess.

I tested the router in player matches only last night. I will test again in ranked and see how that goes. I realize now that the one big issue with xbox which is system I play on it is not region locked like the PS4. It was trying to get me player matches against people on the other side of the globe. Im no network expert, but that is never going to end well. So the Netduma is not fixing the bad netcode it is only improving the matchmaking and getting you with people closer by and with better ping to you. You can control the quality of connection that you get matched with, where as with just the built in matchmaking it must have been totally random or first available that it paired you up with. It does not play like offline for sure, but I was able to play for hours straight last night and when I was done I did not have the though of "I am done with this game" like I did before. I was consistently able to land combos like I can in practice mode. The start menu thing Max mentions in his video is true as well. You can tell when you have a good connection to someone because there is no delay in the character select screen. Using the router l was able to notice the same thing he mentions. One thing that was sacrificed was the time it took to find a player match. It was 3-4min to find a match, but the quality was good so I feel its worth waiting a few minutes longer to get a better connection to someone. With a good connection people tend to stick around for more than one player match at a time.
