MrWhalefish was having ping issues a couple weeks ago and they fixed themselves after a couple matches. We wasn’t spiking or having connectivity issues, but for whatever reason his ping was 30-60 ping higher than it should have been.

Ah you think ping is your ally? You merely adopted the lag, I was BORN in it, RAISED by it, I never saw less than 100 jitter by the time I was a man, and to me it was nothing but BLINDING

 

[chowski]

bump bcuz i tested this with @SidePleb and im spiking from 33-100 on NA but on EU i get a stable 115

 

[SidePleb]

Yeah he would spike a lot on the NA server, I'd be watching his ping while testing it with him and he'd jump from 34 to 61 out of nowhere. On EU however his ping was a stable 115. #justiceforchowski

Ping is unstable on East Coast lines right now probably because of line saturation due to traffic being rerouted due to hurricane damage on main lines is my current working theory. Sad!

I have also have had very bad unstable ping these past two weeks and it's been so frustrating. I usually get a stable 60 ping but I have been spiking to 140+ for no reason. Contacted a staff member and said I should try a VPN or contact my ISP about the issue.

You can run following test at the same time you are having issue with the game:

Spoiler: connection test

If you are having connection or ping issues, please follow these instructions to help us identify the issue:

1. Download this program https://sourceforge.net/projects/winmtr/
2. Once it is downloaded, run WinMTR.exe either in WinMTR_x32 or WinMTR_x64
3. As host address, enter one of the following depending on your region (exactly as written here):
   • Europe: speedtest-ams3.digitalocean.com
   • North America: speedtest-nyc3.digitalocean.com
   • East Asia: speedtest-sgp1.digitalocean.com
4. Start the program and let it run for 5 minutes

This application tracks connection from your computer to the location of the servers.

The last address in the results is where our server is located. If test shows ping spikes before the last address, everything is not fine. We cannot do anything about it.
If it shows spikes only on last address please send it to me.

I wanna say that I was playing on NA the other night, usually I just have 80-90 ping, but it would randomly spike and see me rubberband all over the place, like chowski here is describing.

 

[chowski]

literally have good ping on every other game but for specifically blord NA servers it spikes to 150... idk how i get more stable ping on eu servers then na

 

[Doctor_Noob]

i'm going to try tonight to see if I get ping problems

 

[FearSpear]

Chicago servers would fix a majority of these problems I would bet

 

[chowski]

bump again cause this is ridiculous

Spoiler

White Noise who is EU gets better ping then me while on NA servers...

Spoiler

i get way better ping on EU servers and an NA player named sloppy gets constant 500 ping while on EU servers.

Same here 150 ping normally 50. Will have to wait till they fix this.

 

[Thomasmb]

Didn't play for a week and a half and came back to the same issue, but without much inconsistency in ping.

Tfw you trying to have a tournament playoff. but the top 3 teams have connectivity issues, disappearing men, and an actual ****ing hurricane in that order.
