What's up with the game?

I just logged on for the first time tonight, and the game seems to literally be in shambles.

I’m getting nothing but 100+ ping games right now, and my input is super delayed.

My spartan doesn’t move for a second when I push my joystick in any direction, and he keeps moving after I stop pushing. It’s super delayed.

And I’m playing over Ethernet with a wired controller. Response time should be like <1ms 1ms tops.

Splitgate and Bloodhunt are both working just fine with my controller, so it’s not an issue with Steam as the platform or my controller itself.

The response time being broken is 100% in-game.

Also, my spartan will randomly stop moving at full speed, as thought I’m barely touching the joystick.

He just slowly walks like he’s stopping to smell the roses and has nowhere to be any time soon.

When this happens, the rest of the controller is unresponsive. A, LB, RB, Y, LT, RT and LS are all unresponsive. I play Bumper Jumper by the way so A is sprint and LB is jump in my case.

When he decides to take a walk, all I can do is aim, ping what I’m aiming at but not shooting, and use AI scan.

For a good 2-3 seconds at a time I’m just paralyzed while walking slowly forward.

No idea, I’ve played like 70+ games of this season and only had issues in 1 game so far.

My aim assist was off all game. In ranked too, how unfortunate.

I should also add that the 100 ping is a non-issue, but ever since the “fix” when they did away with geofiltering, ping has been pretty consistent at 50-70. I haven’t had high ping games much since they made it so that it prioritizes your closest server when it can.

The issue is that the 100 ping right now is playing worse than the 300 ping when I randomly find a host in Asia because it’s absolutely dead here in NA and EU. But that happens like 1-2 games a month tops.

100 ping doesn’t feel like 100 ping at all right now. Feels more like 350-400 ping.
