@Kateh8sapexOne thing that has to be taken into account is the fact there are at all times 1m + online at a time with a mixture of about 25-30 different region servers. Some on East Coast have duplicate servers example carolina-1-2-3.
So with this comes the split of the players across regions and repeated servers. This then will create a problem to correctly place people without having long que times. This will then cause them to place at times players not in the skill gap as others to force matches to be made and played. Blame having soo many duplicate state servers for East Coast. (If you are on the East Coast that is)
@E9ine_AC Ok that is interesting. This is an explanation that makes sense. I am on the West coast, there are four Oregon servers I think. Oregon 1 and 2, Oregon GCE 1 and 2. I don't know what the difference is but what you said might explain some of the things I have experienced.
However, I do ask, why do I have 90 ping in game when all the Oregon servers have about 20 ping, at least according to apex itself. I have a friend on the east coast I sometimes play R6 Siege with and when I host he always has 90-100 ping. Am I actually getting pulled to an east coast server? or is something else happening.
I would love to understand this phenomenon.
