It is normal for the middle hops to have failed pings on a traceroute due to traffic prioritization. As long as you have no loss on the destination the packets are making it there.

langbprj01-ae1.rd.la.cox.net Always drops packets, not just pings. Witness as UDP (which game packets generally are.)
