Casual servers high ping

[LostFox]

Hi, just wanted to ask is high ping and low framerate on casual servers a massive thing or is it just for some people (or official servers)? Because now, whenever I join casual, i barely get 10 fps, which makes the game unplayable, however a lot of people still play there + tf2 YTers seem to not have this type of problem and have small ping.

I checked, my internet connection is fine + when I play on community servers, I dont lag.

Just curios, what has caused it, cuz it's been like this for over a month.

Did you check to see if you were on servers that isn't on the other side of where you are on the world?

The ping thing is probably related to the matchmaking putting you on a server that is far away. To prevent this you can set a custom ping limit so it wont connect you to servers where your ping is too high. If you dont know how to do that here is a guide : https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3013925361

Yeah, I checked. The servers were EU and previoulsy worked fine. Tbf, it rarely sends me to US servers.

Strangely, when I check, im on EU servers, which are closest to me (Stockholm and Frankfurt), but I should give it a try. Maybe those servers Im sent to are failing.
Thanks !
