Killers lagging the game

Getting really tired of going up against certain players who clearly don't have internet speeds capable of hosting. How are you meant to fight someone when I vault a window and instantly get teleported back to where I vaulted from? Never have these issues when I play as the killer but as a survivor it occurs far too often.

    On what windows do you get teleported back on?

    @Benjamina That's not always the case. I run top-of-the-line internet (and it's damned expensive), and even when all of my survivors have green ping in the lobby, I still get survivors in some matches that are randomly lagging like hell.

    There's definitely something going on, and it certainly isn't always killer-internet sided. I'm wondering if it isn't connected to the game-side DCs people are also suffering, which also seems to affect survivors more than killers.

    Multiple windows. Mainly on the jungle gym style of vaults.

    I feel like it's only when I play against certain people. There is one killer in particular he is Spain based. Everytime I verse him I lag like crazy. I live in Australia and have the best internet we have available to us. Whenever I verse American killers I seem to have 0 issues. I understand why survivors cant host. Makes total sense. But there is something causing serious problems. The game is over 2 years old and these issues shouldnt still be a problem. As the saying goes "we've done a pretty good job so far" 😅
