Nearly every match today I’ve had pings in excess of 150ms. I’m UK based and my normal ping is 20ms. I have gigabit internet so its definitely putting me on poor servers well outside the norm. Prior to the last release my highest ever ping was less than 90ms. Something has broken badly on mm.

The other day I got a game with 800ms, in Sweden. It was unplayable and I had to quit.
Feels like they want to spend as little resources as possible on people outside of North America.
Australia based here,
Regulalry get games of 150-250ms ping meaning I am pining to either west US or central US servers for the vast majority of my games
Most of this can be chalked up to low population
I’m giving up now, if that’s seriously the best they can cone up with, 4 hours of games and completely inconsistant all day but generally bad including games at over 200ms ping now. They’re not even bothering to try and match region anymore.
Even with a ping below of 40ms im experiencing a lot of lag, weapon inconsistency, desync. Dont know if its a problem of the last update or if there is a problem with their servers. But the gameplay seems now worse.
Yeah every update the ping seems to fly off the handles and then settle back to normal (not good, but normal by H:I standards).
I had a ranked game last night where my ping was fluctuating between 30 ms and 180 ms. When I say it was the worst experience in the game I’ve ever had… constant stuttering, sniped through walls, and a blank melee on a broken shield enemy. It feels 1000x worse since the update.
