Every game is just surivors run into a wall and dissappear how is anyone supposed to play the game if the information they are shown is false

This was never an issue untill this update at first I thought my cord was lose or the router needed an update but it was neither of them

so something is either not working right in the servers or its something else

Is this just me I'm on new gen console

"Okay every game is an not real but its too many for me to not say anything

    Can you show us a record or explain a bit more about your troubles please ? Because I see many ways for a survivor to disappear from the killer's point of view (Perks, Boons, moves,...). Add that a bad connection could produce some weird stuffs too...

    Have you checked all these points in the scoreboard at the end of the trial before to beg BVHR to do things they will probably never do ?

    If I was pc I would but I'll describe to the best of my ability

    I would be playing wesker playing the game as is I would engage a chase with any surivor

    And shortly after I start a chase the red bar of death would appear the one that's supposed to tell you you have bad ping and sometimes a surivor would run into a wall and I would try to hit them with a lunge or bound and they would disappear kinda like how spirit just disappears

    they would be in a spot That I had no way of knowing they would go that way this has been happening for a week or 2 now and I just thought it was an issue on my side because I use fiber optic which gives me about 50gigs a min of upload speed varies on weather and other things

    So I thought my cord was lose unplugged it re plugged it didn't fix anything then I thought maybe the router needed a update to keep performance going no updates available

    My final guess is the router is going bad played some other games that require quick reactions that I won't name to see I'd it is just my router no all of those games were just fine

    I was sitting at a solid 30 ping sometimes 40 but if I play dbd I'm stuck at 100+ping before this update it was a solid 60. so this instantly strikes me as a dbd issue and I'm asking if other people are having this issue and if there's a issue with servers rn

    And I personally see no connection between perks and these spikes? I'll try playing a different killer because I've only been playing wesker so maybe it's an issue with him but that's all I can think

    I've also noticed a lot of network issues with the latest update. I'm assuming all the symbols are new cause I've never seen them before and tbh I have no idea what they mean. Also some chases against survivors have been really difficult cause of how they teleport around even if I have a solid connection. Also I'm getting random disconnects, failures to update the bloodweb, etc.

    Tbh I think the steam servers might be part of the issue but idk why there's problems suddenly.

    It might not be a steam server issue then because I play console and it dosent have steam so this makes me think it's even more of a dbd issue

    Who were you playing when these issues occurred? And what killer was it?

    the two inclined squares probably mean some packet losses.

    The vertical bars + killer icon means the killer (or the 'dedicated server') is actually lagging. The colour & the number or filled bars should indicate how much the lag is.

    If you can see red bar near the survivor's names in the lobby, you have anymore number of latency when you hover it.But the colour gives an idea: yellow -> 70ms & <= 110ms red means over 110ms I guess...
