Has Hit Validation been disabled?
The game feels like the old P2P days, with extremely laggy killers reigning supreme with laggy hits and seemingly no Server-Side Hit Validation stepping in. I got on to play and quickly got off with this experience. And this is why no one wants to play Survivor. The lag advantage granted to The Killer is too much. Why is someone with this ping even allowed to queue, let alone remain connected to a match? My ping was 32ms versus 680ms; I can't compete and react to that. The Killer had a permanent advantage over everyone. How is this fair for players? How is this fun?

I don't think it's been disabled — I just don't think there was ever a robust system to validate hits in the first place. This has been an ongoing problem for years, that they only made worse by removing the ability to view the Killer's ping in the lobby.
Until they implement a decent hit validation system, you should be free to abandon against players who have crazy ping IMO.

Yeah, that is just not true, but I guess you are simply new player and did not play when it was implemented.
I had rule at that time, if I have been validated three times in one game, I go AFK and I usually have around 20ms ping, so it should be rare for me, but it just wasn't...You can still get validated, especially grabs get validated all the time. Huntress can also see it regularly.
Here you go with some examples of how bad it was.

I agree we should be able to leave the match without penalty under the circumstances. It was a miserable experience for everyone, and as a result, no one wanted to play anymore. They're just aren't any prolific Survivor streamers that raise the issue, so it never gets talked about. It's also a topic the devs don't want to bring too much attention to, they always avoid it.

Servers have been absolutely terrible lately, many matches recently have had everybody with 100+ ping which indicates that people are being put in the wrong server, no idea what is going on

if that was true why do my hatchets get deleted even after i see blood spatter and hear a scream. Validation is a thing and its so borked on huntress since atleast orela and increasingly getting worse that I had to drop her as my main. I play with 38 ms ping unless i get sent to another server.
