How Micro-stutters, Rubberbanding, and FPS Drops affect 5 minutes of gameplay
Just to preface, this isn't meant as a report of the issue, since it's been reported multiple times. This is more so just to show and discuss the issue.
So I'm sure we all know about the lag issues that have been happening. It's either been happening as micro-stutters, sudden frame drops, or rubberbanding. Just had a game where it had all 3. I wasn't able to record the whole match, but I got the last 5 minutes. So this is how much lag can happen in just 5 minutes of a match.
Keep in mind, that my frames are typically supposed to be 100-120. I cut out each time it dropped below that suddenly. Each time it dropped, I micro-stuttered/felt the drag of the lag. Sometimes, since the video isn't the same frames, it isn't really seen all the time from the video. But it was definitely felt when I was playing. I would say it happened every 5 seconds ish in some sort of way. I also increased the size of my FPS in a corner to show when it's affected.
The lag made scratch marks delay from where the actual player was, causing me to lose multiple chases. I'm sure the survivors also probably got confused if they saw me stutter, or got weird hits. What do you guys think? I know not everyone has felt this issue so extreme, or get it every once in a while. So this is just to highlight how bad it could get (and probably could be worse).

I have exceptional internet and a supercomputer and I have also experienced the delayed and/or sometime non existent scratchcard.
And the occasional rubber banding, but I secretly hope that leaves my opponent as bewildered as me.

I have same issue after last update. It almost a month right? And they did not fix it. I they won't fix it tomorrow, probably i will give long break to DbD. It almost unplayable.

Yeah I'm hoping it'll be fixed asap. I've had mostly rubber banding in each match, maybe once or twice that doesn't affect my games too much. Now experiencing what all 3 together felt like, it was truly awful to play.

You can still use your Power, I straight up have to give my Shred up, it's nigh impossible to use thanks to rubber-banding

Really hope this gets fixed.

Could do without the jumpcuts. Kind of takes away what you are trying to show.
I have a lot of issues with rubber banding since the last update and fps stays at a solid 120 during them. I think its more to do with the server side.
