High Ping Killers

I just had a match where my internet went crazy; my ping shot up to 3k, i could barely do anything, but i was able to hit people and hook no problem; and frankly that is not okay..I'm starting to understand why the bugs with killers starting to just teleport around and get hits they shouldn't. Frankly the matchmaking system needs to not allow you to play if your ping is higher than 200. It should automatically disconnect you before you even start matchmaking.

    I agree because I’ve been getting hit when I’m clearly on the other side of the window or pallet and already running away too many times lately.

    Yeah, It's especially obvious with huntress "tree sized" axes. On a highly lagging huntress with epic teleportation, you can sometimes actually see axes go through walls... Happened to me in a game, twice when I was crouched behind said wall.

    This is exactly where the replay feature would be useful: we'd have a chance to review the killer's moves and maybe understand/learn to anticipate servers corrections.

    What's funny it I feel like in the early days of dedicated servers being released, hits seemed to be realistic, like, if it connected, you got hurt. This seems (I might be wrong) to have change slightly afterwards where we're back to the point where a couple of meters between killer and survivor does not seem to matter anymore.
