Kill Switch update: We have temporarily Kill Switched the Forgotten Ruins Map due to an issue that causes players to become stuck in place. The Map will remain out of rotation until this is resolved.

Are you also experiencing almost constant packet loss at the moment?

Right now, in pretty much every game, I see the packet loss symbol in the Survivor HUD. This is happening for about 90% of my entire game time. I already reported it to my internet provider, but they didn't find any issues. Also, in the lobby, I’m already getting the red bar indicating poor internet connection. Generally, my internet is quite reliable, with 500 Mbps for both download and upload, and a standard ping of 17 ms. I have complete new High-End PC with cabled LAN-Connection directly to the router and the router is connected via cable to the internet even tried different cables with CAT8 from pc to router and from router to internet. I tried a lot with different router options but cant find/solve the problem. I play form the nothern part of germany.

Is this a general issue (possibly still due to desync), or is this problem only affecting me? If this only affects me i have to contact my internet provider again.

Would apprecciate some responses <3

    Yes, it can happens until 33% of the games. It is a common issue somewhere…
    This icon informs you 'someone' (the killer or a survivor) has a problem. It shouldn't hold for too long but sometimes it doesn't disappear from the HUD all the game long.
