Has the game been broken?

After the update servers went garbage. Today i tried to play with some friends and of course we had to wait like 10 minutes for a 180+ ping server where the killer has the advantagre, still, like before when they were the hosts with green ping while survivors had to endure frustrating matches with impossible hits. When is this going to be fixed?!!

    The killer doesn't have any advantage playing on 180ping server.

    Play killer on that kinda ping and see for yourself before saying dumb stuff.

    You can say whatever you want, but killers see different than survivors. They dont teleport, and even so, it s easy to hit them lol. Im playing both equally.

    Killers have priority, the devs said so in their hitboxes stream.

    You obviously don't know what it's like to play killer with high ping.

    Play killer on such high ping first, then comment.

    The real question is "Was the game something else than broken until now?"

    ummm, buddy, waffle is kinda right. Killer has priority when it comes to hitting survivors.

    In response, survivor has priority when it comes to grabs, so no grabs for high ping killers.

    I keep getting matched up with people in Japan, Saudi Arabia, China and India. I'm based in the UK and every game I have a yellow ping of around 200. Before this update I was always green around 50-60ms.


    I am on Virgin Media in the UK though and the last week or so they have been having issues. So if the survivors don't list their location on their profile I don't know if some of the lag I am experiencing in games is due to my connection being ######### at the moment or if I'm being matched on a server thousands of miles away.


    The problem is the connection issues with Virgin started Monday and the update was Tuesday which makes it more difficult to figure out.

    The game has always been broken in my almost four years of playing it. I don’t know why I still do. I took a long break hoping to come back to a somewhat decent experience, but it only became worse. The ranking system is STILL busted, Doctor is even more of an annoyance to go against, they’re denying bloodpoints in struggle (which isn’t that bad? But eh.) and the hitboxes are still so so so stupidly busted. So yeah, it’s kinda broken as of recent.
