Ping Based Matchmaking

Theres needs to be Ping Based Matchmaking. Roughly 5% of the players Ive went against have actually been from Britan & Ireland and the other 95% have been from: Spain, Russia, Japan, Sweden, Germany, Italy, Canada, America etc. Anyone with high ping and laggy internet gets an advantage on this game because its near impossible to hit a player thats darting back & fourth across your screen. I didn't play Season 3 because World's Edge is garbage & I certainly won't play Season 4 if the Matchmaking doesn't get fixed along with the lag.

    IDK about 100ms being sensible; I have 7ms to frankfurt, 100-110ms to USA servers. I get hit through closed doors, lose peeks all the time (sometimes without even seeing people), get rekt by havoc even though I LoS it super fast... if I play on the 7ms servers... the moment I go on 100ms USA servers I am the one who wins the peek, chases down guys and PKs them through the gap as they close the door... or did they close it from their perspective already? 🙂

    Low latency should be something you want; even 40-50ms vs 10ms was a huge deal back in the day. If they do a ping cap, then they should also provide EA vpns, to raise your ping to the exact cap, that way at least we can get an even playing field for all.

  • @notCatnipIve been wrecking alot of players with havocs lately since they made it have a built in turbo and built in extended mag it’s actually better than R-99 sometimes early to mid game when everyones in whites/blues and it also has reduced recoil 

    It seems everytime I see a player thats really laggy with high ping they always end up as the kill leader in the end because nobody can hit them, there was a really laggy path earlier and I destroyed him with spitfire just because it had so many bullets to keep tracking him and he watched me for 5 mins thinking I was hacking or something but that was a good match for me though I was killing everyone between spitfire and wingman XD i had like 7 kills when I left the mirage boat area as a solo ._. I really wish we would get permanent solos already it seems like the only time I do great is when im alone but sometimes I mess up big time aswell when im alone because I speed around so fast and slide jump right on top of a full team

  • its 2021 and they still didnt fix it..we are getting in lobbys with high ping players and need to play against them.. in season 8 is evn worse! because of ther lagg compensation the high ping players have an advanteg of 2 second... and there are other isues which are pulled with NET CODE lagg compensation aswel: 3/4 shots arent doing any damage on stat.. we dont hear food steps... graple with path is like 50% broken for us we hit and jump at right time but we slide on the ground!!! we die behind cover!!! spaming ulti 5 times to get it work and this is all because we match against high ping players... i have beautifull connection with 2% of db lost thats ''perfect'' ping in EU 30ms ping to USA NY 105ms and 144 fps with 0 fps drops! this is a crime against us players with good connection...I pay for my internet arround 100 bucks and a wifi lagg spikes players pay 100 buck for a hole appartment with network included 🙂)) where is the logic for me to play the game where am I 2 seconds behind them in any game any server! this low ping latency compensation has to stop!!!
