Data centers and ping
I don’t know if you guys are planning on adding new data centers but the ones you guys have now is garbage. This game has so much potential but the ping is garbage. I live in California and I am get...

Try wired, wifi = unstable.
Also, the time you play is important as I have found out.
Sometimes... especially weekends can actually suck to play in a big city.
Just think about your local Internet provider, the number of people can down your latency connection on the weekend
my connection is about 3 or 4 percent slower.
Then comes the server load of the game you play, also weekend can be bad at times...
I check the data center a lot and I have come to the conclusion that even if you are in your own region,
the server ping can still be very erratic/ unstable...
For example the 2 servers in Virginia, server 1 has a higher server load mostly always than the second one.
If optimized it should not happen.
Then there is something I'm a bit unsure about and that is if other "Users" introduce lag...
I mean maybe just maybe your not the problem and you did everything right.
But other high ping players are destabilizing the server??
@OneEyeYarric I've seen that too, sometimes the game starts super lagging and as soon as an specific player is killed (or leaves the game) the frame rate improves for everyone. I happened to me before where my actual squad members where super lagged, they left because they could barely move, and suddenly the game improved a lot. These high players should not be allowed to join an specific server, instead, be routed to a server with lower pings.
