VPN Killers

Anyone else getting frequent VPN killers lately?

Ever since the MMR update, I've seen a spike. As I check Steam profiles, I'm seeing I've gotten killers from Afghanistan, Israel, and France.

    its been happening for the last few years majority of the vpn killers ive seen have been from china. I think its one of those cases where they need to implement a auto end and reque if the ping between players gets too high. The only problem is players who have a shoddy connection may never be able to play though.

    I play against a decent amount, sucks because they can hit you on the next map and you can't do anything about it.

    As a killer I am getting thrown into red ping lobbies quite often for some reason. I'm not using vpn.

    I dont think so as most of the players from over there are doing it for the advantage a low ping can give a killer in the match. If dbd was a lot more popular investing in a better server infrastructure would be ideal I just dont think the game has a big enough audience to warrent it.
