How to prevent lag in COD: IW PS4? - Shopping centre with hanging protestant banners crowded with people on meeting

My speed is 50mbps (download and upload). I don't know why but cod infinite warfare lags extremely. I can't even play with that much of lag.

When I shoot I don't get any hitmarkers.

I keep running and suddenly I teleport back. When I see the killcam, I look like an idiot because my character keeps staring into wall or sky(but I was actually running).

I play GTA online, Battlefield 1, Hardline and sometimes Uncharted 4 but I never experienced lag in any of them.

The problem is with me or with servers? Is my internet speed enough?

Is there anything I can do to prevent lag and enjoy the game?



Best Answer

If your router is far from your console you'll get packet loss which acts the same way lag does. Try using Ethernet cable or if the game allows you to, modify the amount of data received or the maximum ping for the game.

    I guess this is due to the interruption from your console being a distance from your router.

    You can try connecting your console via ethernet. If you are not able to easily connect a cable from your console directly to your router then you can use a plug adaptor such as a TP-LINK connector that lets you plug one plug into a wall by our router and plug it in via ethernet, and then use the other plug by your console and connect that via another ethernet cable to your console, this will let you use the internet without relying on the wireless, and get a better speed because it will not get interrupted as easily. Personally, that is what I use for all my consoles and PCs.
