Server health
How is this rated? I can check a server and it will be red. Refresh the screen and its green.

DOesnt seem to be a very good indicator. Unless ofcourse it stays red, which I havent seen yet. Just wondering how this rating is ascertained (sp?) ?

Servers can set their own TPS, but most use the standard of 50 TPS, which drops as players and assets are added in the game.

The issue is, on the server browser, some servers show up green with a good ping HOWEVER, this is just a snap shot in time when you hit refresh. The truth is often different. 3 of the 6 servers near my area/timezone often show those stats but when you join, they are almost always in the yellow and red with high pings. Its miserable. I leave ASAP and have marked them down as no-go until I see improvements.

People say its the hardware of the servers having a tough time working with this game... I think this is right, Squad had some similar issues but they fixed most of it.

Sombody got an old 286 from his moms basement and set up a server. It is a problem.

And there are no licensed servers for PS yet, not a lot of control sadly.

Ahhh. Thankyou. That makes sense for why it changes so much. I thought it was some kind of janky static rating or something. Probably still advisable to stay away from serves that remain orange and red, or change alot, even after a few refreshes, I guess.

Appreciate the explanantion.

Yes, stay away. Make a note of servers that report green on the browser but operate in yellow/red often and dont go there.
