Ping issues..Fix your game
After this stupid update, my ping jumped from 60-80 to 200+. WTF? Don't you guys have any testing policy before rolling out the update? Don't ruin this game and piss off players. Fix your game!!

Yeah I know that, may be I'm frustrated and vented out here. I like the game and i enjoy it. But i donno what happened after the update, I'm facing high ping issues. I play in Asia region and used to get 60-80 ping, now every match i join, i'm left with 200+ ping and my wired internet connection is good and stable. This ruins my experience. Many players are having the same issues. May be, they'll fix this soon, who knows!!

... probably they moved their Asian severs to another provider. Anyway ask your friends to make some noise on Discord and Reddit, or summit a bug report if you want to obtain an adequate response. Here is only FatherHank from NWI side, responding few times / year to some random things.

May be you are unaware..perhaps try searching ping in the above search bar. You'll get to know how many players are facing this issue after the update!!

FIX YOUR GAME.

It's fine when it isn't peak hours. As soon as peak hours happen, the servers go to ♥♥♥♥ and I see people 1000 ping trying to play. I've never been aggro to high pings but I cna't play this game at peak hours anymore.
I feel like we're playing on the cheapest ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ servers that the internet can support.
Been playing on east and west coast us servers and my ping always below 70. So I dont think this problem is on their end. Get your internet fixed.

Same for me....
Would be interesting if the above complaints are actually based on "On server X I got ping of 70, now - after the patch - I get ping 270 on the same server" .... or if it's another unsubstantiated "I connect to random servers and get different pings"?!

I don't know exact number of servers in asia region, before this update I might have connected 100's of times to asian servers and never got this issue. Now, irrespective of the server in asia region, i get high ping(200+). I live in south asia and I used to get around 60-70 ping on SEA servers.

But are you connecting to the SAME servers as before and now have 200+ pings vs. 50-70 before?
Are you playing on official servers or community hosted servers?
I play on the same two servers all the time and have not seen any increase in ping.....so it is likely to be a server issue.
Haven't noticed any difference on official servers. Same ping as always. Something on your end?

Your internet quality may change based on time and location, contact your ISP to improve your network connection if possible.

Try rebooting your router or modem, make sure you are having a good wireless signal or lan connection.

Configure your internet settings properly for gaming, and low latency.

Make sure that you are the only one using the internet.

Also, make sure that there are no applications in background heavily using your internet connection, including steam downloads.
