why are darktide servers SO DANG LAGGY

[NoahZ]

literally I cant play the game anymore. NA Region has playable ping between 4-6 PM at 35-40 MS
then ANY OTHER FRICKING TIME THE PING IS AT 96-108 MS FOR NA
I used to never have any problems with darktide but after the recent updates the servers ARE JUST UNPLAYABLE
and now I hear they are releasing PS5 cross-play how the frick is that gonna make anything better with their netcode

Sorry if I seem like I'm raging. Darktide is probably one of my most favorite games and no other games just have the exact same appeal as darktide does.

and yes I tested if it was my wifi or not. its literally just darktide

Same here. I get lots of rubber banding, failed special skill activations, weapon reload failures, gun firing failures, charge attacks when i dont want them, jumping instead of sliding, unregistered enemy hits(even with hit animations). It feels like straight up packet loss moreso than just lag. The servers were more stable at launch than they are today.

for me everything just starts to float and then I just get disconnected error code 2014. I'm glad I'm not the only one but I'm not sure why its happening for specific users

Because they use generic Amazon AWS

Servers cost money. This isn't Fortnite and there have been recent spikes in the player count.

Hope they upgrade their servers by the time the PS5 players come.

I hope so otherwise this problem will only spread to more users. this started happening like 2 weeks ago for no reason and I actually cant get a round in anymore
