VPN Players are killing this game.
Not sure what percentage of people that use these forums played back in 2019/2020, but a strategy that was commonly used was 'lag-switching'.
For anyone that doesn't know what that is, its when you purposely play when your internet is unstable, or use a VPN (which can make your connection to servers unsecure). If memory serves me right, back then, the game based everything on the Killer's client, so in the case of a killer using lag-switch, the game would play smoothly on their end, whereas for the survivors, the killer would be teleporting all over the place, making them unpredictable and hard to run because of the lag.
This was mostly fixed by using a server client, rather than a killer/survivor client. But it's become increasingly popular for people to be using VPNs, which causes connectivity issues for all parties. It makes the game super un-fun and confusing, and the video below is an example of a VPN killer, just for reference.

Just give us a lobby ping indicator at least. The fact that they removed it is baffling

Fair.
Not sure why they removed it.
