Instant killer lobbies are good but...

It doesn't matter if it sends me to asian servers with 200+ ping.

I would rather wait a couple of minutes for closest server instead of dodging lobbies non stop.

Please bhvr revert that tweak. Or at least make an option to choose preferable server.

    I dodged 20 lobbies and accidently pressed ready on 200 ping game. It's gonna be a ######### show.

    Usually this happens when all Servers in your Region are full, so you will be connected to a different Server. For me, I end up with around 130 Ping at this point. And this is not me, everyone in this Trial will have around the same Ping, because they are from my Region as well.

    If this happens, you should wait a few minutes and queue up again. Searching for a match immediatly again will most likely have the same result and connect you to a Server which is not even close to your location.

    It started today. Yesterday it was fine. I waited 2 minutes and get closest available server.

    Today I wait 5 seconds and it connects me to Korea or Japan.

    They obviously tweaked queue algorithm.

    Alright. I played one game with 200 ping and it wasn't as bad as I expected. I did 3k and Asian survivors wasn't even salty for my ######### connection.

    Looks like today I play like this. Hope this problem will be solved soon. I'm not a fan of bringing inconvinience to survivors because of my ping.
