PS4 multiplayer in Lebanon

- Is there officially no Lebanese Playstation Plus store?
- Considering internet options, how is the experience for playing network-intensive games such as Call of Duty?

Re: PS4 multiplayer in Lebanon

Hey rolf, a lebanese PSN store is available. The Playstation Plus account is an add-on i think around 60$ per year that allows you to play online in addition of receiving 2 ps4, 2 ps3, 2 psvita games for free every month.

Some people are playing online fine after turning off interleaving. However I had no luck getting a good ping.

The maximum rate I can get for dsl is 2MBps. I experience a lot of lag while playing online. Tried 4g instead. It was great. 6GB per month can be enough. Anyone knows of cheaper alternative?

Spending some time in Lebanon, yes.
But I find this place stressful.

If 4G is good, then it's not a good sign. 4G is a wireless, cellular technology, which should be more laggy than good DSL.
Maybe the DSL infrastructure is not very good.

Re: PS4 multiplayer in Lebanon

Yeah! DSL infrastructure varies by location. It is terrible at my place. I am subscribed to 100GB open speed plan but the max I can get is 2MBps. A year ago the max used to be 1MBps so this is considered an improvement following an upgrade made  by Ogero. Thats really sad. Its unfair that some people get high speed connection above 10MBps while others get bad connection even though they are in well populated areas. And I doubt fiber will be available at my location any time soon either. This place is indeed stressful!
