Is something weird going on with connection issues lately?
I've had a few games over the past day or so where my ping has spiked to ridiculous, unplayable levels despite being perfectly fine before. Sometimes this would end up DCing me completely, and the most recent one had me wondering if something was up. I had a ping of about 30-40 the whole match, but everything was jumping about as it usually does when you have high ping. This one Nea on the other hand didn't seem to be having any problems at all, despite her ping being about 200+ the whole match.
Once all the gens were done, my ping immediately jumped up to 1000. Yes, 1000 whole ping! And it stayed that way until I was DC'd. Oddly enough, this time it showed the killer as having DC'd, too. What's more, after this match my entire internet crashed and had to take a moment to restore itself. Thinking back, this happened in a previous match too, but I dismissed it as typical modem issues.
I know the game has had problems with hackers targetting specific users' IP to crash their internets in the past, and that people had to use a VPN if they wanted to play safely, so is that same thing happening again? Or is it still happening?
