PING in multiplayer is awful
Recently after the Gathering Storm update I've been kicked out of nearly every R&F game after 1-2 seconds in lobby, I didn't understand why until I noticed all the hosts I encountered had an average of 200-450 ping, so they must see me in the same way and kick me bc of it.
Thing is I have around 40-30 ping in all my other games, even reaching 20 ping. So why am I so unlucky in Civ6? Any way to optimize it? (I live in Spain)

If it's P2P, it has nothing to do with the client. It's possible one PC is slow and it's cause high ping times because the CPU is pinned.

But that should means I shouldnt get kicked as often as I do. I have an outdated setup, with FX6300 AMD cpu, 16RAM and 2GB 270x Radeon graphics card but I believe its way enough for CIV6 to run smoothly. If it's p2p as you say, why am I always with the highest ping? And the first one to get kicked
Maybe I'm missing something?

Did you try pinging your friend from Windows, without the game running?
Just running the ping command and seeing what ping you get?
