I’m playing coop with my friend is Asia while I live in the US. I was just wondering why I always have a one second delay no matter whose party it is. When I join his game, I get the one second delay. But when he joins mine, I still get the one second delay… And I have one of the fastest internet. (top 1% in the country)
Just because you are party leader does not mean you are connection host. If you are seeing lag, especially that significant, you are NOT host.
You may have “the fastest in the country” but you may connect so poorly to Asia that your connection just laughs at you when it tries to pull host.
