No, try playing with someone else closer to your location. That decreases the desync.
It won't be fixed though.

We notice this to. It's not crazy bad for my group but it is noticable. We all live really close to each other (like a 2 min walk).

As i said, it can't be fixed. Europe and america are far away, so it's basically impossible to fix.

Yes, but there is still some stuff that can be fixed and optimized. Seeing that my buds and I lag in the same game and we are literally 2 mins away from each other.

If you are close, it could be because NAT is not configured and the traffic is routed through steam. Check similar issues and solutions for Age Of Empires:

I dont see why it cant be fixed, many other games do not suffer this issue of 2 seconds input lag. despite being in a room with 20 people.
Or am i seeying it wrong?

Because the game is hosted directly by a player, anyone too far away will have lagg issues.
You can't fix this by fixing anything to do with the game.
Hosts + Players must all have a decent connection and be somewhat close enough physical location distances to avoid de-sync.

Of course it can be fixed. Absolutely it can. We can host games like CastleStory, ArmA 3 and a bunch of others, which are far more intensive and far more difficult to run than Human Fall Flat. Don't get me wrong I adore this game, but the network optimisation could do with some work. A lot to say the least, when we break the core game down, it's just some blobs running around jumping. There's not much information TO exchange between computers. And when I have optic fibre running to my computer, as does my friend, and we live extremely close with great ping, I should not be lagging as much as I do, and we certainly shouldn't be taking 5 seconds to jump as a guest on a friend's server. On other games such as ArmA 3, everything done and executed is immediate and extremely responsive. This needs some updating in that department.

Again, taking nothing away from Human Fall Flat, it's not supposed to be a serious game and it is honestly worth the money with the unoptimised stuff that comes with it.
