Kill Switch update: We have temporarily disabled the Mindbreaker perk while we work to fix an issue which caused near permanent Exhaustion to Survivors. This perk will be re-enabled once the issue is fixed.

Anyone else notice the massive latency change?

So is this a massive VPN uptick among killers, or has something changed in the DBD servers???

I'm literally getting killers grabbing me on pallets while I was alrdy vaulted and walking away for 3secs, among the most obvious examples… Not just once or twice, but many matches in a row and mutiple times per match.

I have a 30-40 ping stable connection if you are wondering, I'm fairly certain its not me…

Something was alrdy bad in the past, but now it seems aplified somehow…

Am I the only one noticing this? Please do not just downvote, but comment instead, so I know I have to look into my own stuff first… thanks <3

    It's not you, there's been frame drops issues since the last update. It's especially bad near exit gates when frames easily drop to 30 and less, which makes the game legit stutter.

    I think DStrike on YT made a video on it recently...

    Has nothing to do with frames, at least not my case. It is literally a latency/server/ping/connection issue.

    Just had a few matches in a row where the killers were chasing me, I was well ahead of them, vault a pallet/window, now on the other end, start running for 1-2-secs… then get grabbed on the vault, like teleporting back into the killers hands, completely out of my control, it is so frustrating to outplay and then go down anyway to a grab like that.
