The same thing happened to me. When I first started using Stadia it was like a console experience. Perfect quality, no input lag, etc. Now it's always a bit pixelated and will drop in quality from time to time. Even spazzing out and causing massive lag to the point where my inputs aren't registered. I switched over from Xbox Cloud because their app has huge lag issues and poor stream quality even at 1080p. I'm afraid of committing to Stadia and buying games I want due to speculation that Google might abandon Stadia. Its also pretty dead online, even on big name games like Destiny 2.

So I've noticed something that is unusual. I normally play Stadia through the Stadia App on android. However I recently tried using it through Chrome and noticed some differences. First off, the stream quality from the App is considerably worse than Chrome. The quality through Chrome was almost identical to playing on a console or pc. However I kept getting frequent controller disconnects and various input lag here and there. Certain features worked in Chrome but not the App.  I wasn't able to open the Stadia menu inside a game with my Xbox controller, but I am able to on the App. I'm not sure the reason behind lower streaming quality on the App, but I would like to see an improvement. It is generally a bit pixelated, and can make it hard to see in dark areas. The input lag is non existent and performs well on the App. But as stated before there was much more input lag in Chrome. Also. Voice chatting is also something I would like to see implemented soon into the Stadia App. Even through Chrome it wouldn't allow me to use my wired headset for a mic. I could connect to game chat through Destiny 2, but the Stadia App on Chrome and Android both would keep me muted regardless of settings.

I'm pretty sure that Stadia users that are only able to use a controller due to limitations on mobile are being matched with keyboard and mouse users on other platforms. This **bleep** needs to stop. You have such a huge advantage using keyboard and mouse over a controller. It creates a game experience that isn't fun. No matter how hard you try, you will always lose 9/10 times against a keyboard and mouse user. There also seems to be an abundance of hackers floating around in Destiny 2. I kept playing against this one guy who would get 50-60 kills each match, even after joining in late. He would take almost no damage in comparison to other players. I would melee him, and after seeing him on my death cam he would only have lost 1/4 of his shield. Shot him in the head with a fully charged shot from a bow and he didnt even lose his shield. Almost certain hes hacking. The servers need to merge with normal game platforms so there's more than 100 people online at once. Or atleast make it so controller players are only matched with other controller players and same with keyboard and mouse.

Speed test ran fine. 105mb/s Down, 11mb/s Up. 30m/s latency, 5m/s Jitter. The port forwarding is a bit of an issue as I have a router directly from Spectrum themselves. Meaning my ability to open ports is limited to single ports at a time. I am unable to port forward a range of ports. However that shouldn't affect anything realisticaly. I am not running Stadia on Windows and do not have the same amount of resistance when receiving connections and such. Android phones do not have firewalls or any sort of connection blocker or internet protection. Port forwarding is generally used when a connection is being blocked by your firewall, refusing the connection. Android phones do not have this issue. I have also checked with my internet provider, and no, they do not throttle internet or slow anyone down. They are one of the few that have no limits.

No I haven't made any changes to my internet or Stadia settings. I am using my WiFi when streaming games on my phone. I run my phone in Samsung Dex mode 95% of the time. That has no interference what so ever in regards to the performance of my internet. I stream in 1080p and the quality looks more like 480-720p, 720 at best for brief periods of time. During random times in my streaming sessions the quality will flicker almost as if my connection to stadia drops drastically and the controller latency goes through the roof and doesn't register inputs very well during this spaz session. As stated before, my internet is 100mb/s. I have no problem streaming 4k videos, playing games, and letting someone else watch some 4k movies at the same time. All on the same internet. Stadia states you only need around 10-15mb/s down for streaming. I have 10x the required speeds. I recently jumped ship from Xbox Cloud because the latency was absurd. Stadia has phenomenal latency as far as registering inputs. There is very little delay. However the main concern is the quality takes a massive dump on itself. It feels like Stadia is throttling my connection to them due to how much I use the service.

When I first started using Stadia Pro the streaming quality was great. Recently it has been non-stop poo quality. I'm playing on Android with a 100mb/s connection streaming at 1080p. It used to be flawless. It is constantly low quality and every so often will spaz out and be unplayable for a couple minutes. The latency is still very low, but the overall quality has gone downhill.

I don't think you understand the problem here. Destiny 2 on Stadia has no aim assist what so ever while using a controller. I stated that using a keyboard and mouse on the android stadia version is not possible. Aim assist is almost required in shooters while using a controller, otherwise it's like trying to shoot with a rolling ball as your controller.

Using a controller on Destiny 2 is supposed to have aim assist. However there is no option for it, or any sort of snapping going on ingame. It's really annoying considering how hard to is to precisely aim with a controller. I'm not a elite controller player, and I need aim assist to play shooters properly. It has options for Keyboard and Mouse, but those don't work on Android. I'm playing using an Xbox One controller.  I'd rather go back to laggy Xbox Cloud than deal with limited controls and lack of aim assist in games where there needs to be.
