Show the Pings BHVR
I feel like I should be able to know if I'm going against an individual with bad ping BEFORE I'm actively in the game with them.
It's already no secret that the game is killer sided when it comes to hit boxes. Lagging killers almost always get hits they shouldn't if they're de-synced from the survivors..
But it feels like you're almost trapping us by not letting us know before hand.
There was no addressing tunneling because killer mains complained about it, but you have tunneling and then mix it with bad ping? Not an enjoyable match in the least.
Let it be up to me if I want to go against someone with 100+ ping or not.

Lots of people have asked for this, but zero chance it will happen. BHVR has made it very clear that they don’t care about the problems caused by high ping players. Limiting pings would reduce the number of players - definitely not gonna happen. Showing pings would mean high ping killers would basically never get to play, which honestly I believe is a fair outcome because they are ruining games for everyone else.

It's wild to think that they're concerned with "higher ping players never being able to play" and not "how do we make it more enjoyable for our survivor players"

While I 100% agree with you they wont do that. Their logic would be "This will affect queue times so it wouldn't be a probable solution."

They used to show player's ping in the lobby back when I started playing.
I think the reason why it got removed was due to excessive lobby-shopping, and higher-ping players would often end up sitting for a long time. Not only that, but the killer player was also the game host, so survivor players would look until they got a favorable one1 -
I believe that BHVR’s rationale is that they would lose more players by enforcing ping limits or allowing people to see pings in lobby than they would be allowing the problem to continue. And they are probably rights. Relatively few people are leaving the game because of this problem. So, if we really want this to change, everyone who has a problem with high ping killers simply needs to stop playing altogether.

I agree with showing the ping, tired of stunning the killer with the pallet and getting hit from the other side, also jumping out of the locker, when both feet are on the ground and get randomly grabbed. This used to not be a thing especially when fast vaulting out of them.
