Please, BHVR TURN OFF THESE SERVERS, the test HAS GONE ON LONG ENOUGH, 5 games in a row as survivor I have had 50 PING and yet in the game I am SLINGSHOTTING CONSTANTLY. and it has caused me to get downed MULTIPLE TIMES because of these TRASH DEDICATED SERVERS. this TEST has gone on long enough, and you have gotten enough data, REMOVE THEM AND WORK ON THEM. they are NOT ready and we should NOT be playing on something that is WORSE then the P2P system we had. REMOVE THESE SERVERS

    I will say I was getting better ping before. The dedicated servers have caused much more laggy games for me personally.

    I doubt it would be a simple flip of the switch to revert them to before dedicated servers. We're in it for the long haul at this point.

    Considering how much hassle they've gone through to even get them working this well, I doubt they'd just disable them now. You're stuck with 'em, like everyone else.

    They're probably never turning them off they've been up for like a month.

    Same. It will claim 60-70 ping every game. You just can't trust that reading anymore. Gotta spend the first chase figuring out how laggy your killer/survivors are going to be. Before dedicated I could at least dodge a 250+ ping in lobby.

    Killers with any mechanical complexity feel bad at 50ms ping. I can't imagine how people with worse ping are doing it. I can look at the ground and watch myself rubberband on every Nurse blink. Even perks like Infectious Fright are less useful because of the information delay on dedicated servers.

    Exactly. I just avoided the bad pings before and had no issues.
