Why is it that when I’m playing someone from a different country or region it’s like I’m playing Prometheans ? It’s really hard for me to hit them however very easy for them to hit me. This type of gameplay is so unreal and very frustrating, has caused me to break a headset and Elite controller and damn near throw the disc in the garbage… it seems like this game servers cater to the needy people with lower megabytes per second. I have pretty bad internet as well but I don’t ever get the favor…lol
The servers actually favor players with good connections, so by admitting your internet is “pretty bad” that explains why you’re having these issues.

I know it seems frustrating but sifting the objective and subjective from each players point of view is key to fix issues such as this.
On the note about connection, it deems a majority rules factor of region which attempts to pick a server based off where player are located, while also making that server the closest it can be to the regional players.
Example
7 North American (2 East, 1 Central, 4 West)
1 Australian & New Zealand
Server Majority: North American
Server Orientation: West
Essentially the closest server is in West North America where 4 - 5 players (ie majority) can connect to it and where East NA and ANZ are the outlying regions in-terms of latency.
On the discussion of latency, we can discuss two factors to narrowing the issue on your end.
- Where are you located region-wise. Im from ANZ so my experience with expanded and high-latency games is some-what knowable.
2 In-terms of internet, in this case yours, which was stated to be approximately 50 download and 5 upload, what reading do you get when doing a Xbox Network Details check?
Since this issue I have actually upgraded to 300 megabytes per second download and 10 upload so I’m doing much better now thank you for your cares and concerns… wirelessly I’m getting about 85 download and 9 upload with only 39 Latency at 84% signal strength

If you want to wrap your head around the subject a little more…Here’s a thread you might be interested in.
If you really want to get more in depth on the subject Wikipedia has a good thread on many, many reasons why this happens… Wikipedia is a secure site.
