Hello,

since a few minutes I get connected to Servers which have way higher ping than usual. Usually I have around 35 ping, but since a few minutes my ping varies from 133 to 290. I get anything in between those two numbers, most of them are around 200 Ping.

Anyone else experiencing this?

Steam, Germany

    Are you playing survivor and how are your queues? They might be expanding the regional limiters in order to reduce queue times

    Yes, Survivor and Queues are really fast. But this is the usual case around this time of the day.

    If they expanding the regional limiters, they should first learn that 150 Ping is not "pretty good ping". Let alone 290.

    Same, 8/10 lobbies have a yellow or even a red ping. Something is wrong rn.

    I'm experiencing the same since the new patch. Most lobbies are at least yellow ping (around 150) or worse.

    edit: EU, steam

    I only have it since a few minutes.

    And even the other 3 Survivors in my Lobby had a similar ping, we played that Lobby with ~300 Ping and it was not as funny as someone might think. But its not like I was at a wrong Server, the other Survivors and also the Killer (who was from Austria, so I doubt that his Ping was any better) were also on high Ping.

    Yes, been watching some streamers today and many have high ping. I watched a U.K. streamer that found he had 3 NA players in his lobby. Something is up with the servers.

    Just wanted to mention, it is happening again for me.

    This time as Killer, first game of the day was with Green Ping, the 4 Lobbies afterwards I got had yellow Ping (1 time) and Red Ping (3 times), with 230 up to 300 Ping.

    I play mostly Survivor and get decent ping lobbies, but I'm on Xbox and our dedicated servers are disabled so I don't know if that has anything to do with it. Northeast USA btw.

    Same for me the first 3-4 games have been 135-200ping lol. idk why im connecting to different servers. maybe its to reduce queue times but i would rather wait 30 extra seconds to find a game in my region lol
