We have temporarily disabled Baermar Uraz's Ugly Sweater Cosmetic (all queues) due to issues affecting gameplay.

Can we please make people play on their own servers instead of everyone joining the closest server?

This.

I hate queueing with players outside of NA, everyone is either lagging and sometimes a pain to try and catch with how bad they're teleporting from rubberbanding or the server is just laggy for everyone. I see more LATA players on NA then I do NA players, and most of the time it's a laggy experience. Or get a killer from a different region hitting you from a mile away.

I've also been getting paired with and against people from EU, OCE, etc a lot recently.. There really should be an option to select your server in the in-game settings. No hate to those players because I'm sure they would want the same.

    I wish you would see EU servers as well. I saw players from UK and South Africa in same lobby. All Europe, Middle East, North Africa ( i am not sure about this one but probably rest of Africa as well) are playing on same servers.

    I'm Colombian and the South American server is located in Brazil; I don't connect to it, despite that country being next to mine, so you can probably guess why the game doesn't queue me with those players. NA East simply offers a better connection for the northern countries in SA. It doesn't seem like they care enough to do anything about new servers or whatever needs to be done to fix the issue.

    I'm sorry you experience it as survivor occasionally. Us players outside NA have to deal with it every single match of survivor, and it's so bad to the point we have to play an entirely different game where we can't attempt risky mind games and the only options are boring, safe pre-drop plays that take away from what makes chases great. Killer sucks when you get fake hits and others have to suffer, and eventually it also gets tiring to get called a VPNer or a guy that lives on the moon and should move country or stop playing lol

    Not trynna say people outside NA have it worse to invalidate your experience cuz hell no, it sucks for everyone, but just know it's beyond our control that we get matched in the same lobbies.
