Anyone else having really bad ping in 2v8?

Earlier today, I tried a bit of 2v8 survivor, then some regular 1v4 survivor matches and then finally went onto 2v8 as killer. And it really seems like the servers are straining with 2v8, especially when I was on the killer side.

Most matches I was experiencing 100+ ping and it become downright unplayable at times, I've supposedly heard people have had issues being disconnected but I didn't have that happen.

    I only played one 2v8 Killer match with a friend this morning. I was on Playstation 5 and he was on Nintendo Switch. We had no ping issues.

    My 2v8 Survivor games are hit and miss. If I do get ping issues, they don't start until around mid-match for some reason.

    it’s almost every game or every other game that the whole lobby (except the two bots) have 200+ ping. It’s not the worst thing in the world on killer side but for survivor it feels HORRIBLE. I have to pray every time I drop a pallet or vault a window or pallet that I won’t get hit as I’m running away after I vaulted because somehow killers can throw their weapons 5 feet in front of them. I swear the last 2 iterations of 2v8 were never this bad, at most it would be everyone having around 120 ping but not 200-250 ping consistently. They need to fix whatever is causing the high ping amongst everyone.

    Edit: I restarted my game and the past 2 games have been regular ping so hopefully that fixed the issue.

    Yes. Some matches have been borderline unplayable.

    Yes, constant 120ms+. BHVR needs to upgrade their servers.
