Hey, everyone I am taking your reports and information and passing this along. Thanks @Lumi for the video. I see that no one has posted in here today are these issues still happening?
Appaling state of the EU servers
Have been on a business trip since Sunday but will check the servers again as soon as I’m back.
Huh, for US West you can literally hear crickets chirping and wind blowing in the server browser.
Just had a game on EU Objective 6v6 16 - terrible freezes every 2-3 minutes and people complaining in chat.
Then a game on EU Objective 8v8 10. I was playing as Sawbonez and a few times I couldn’t stop charging paddles. Again people complaining about “lag spikes”.
Only because of the high pingers, played 1 game with everyone below 70 ping, fine, just played a game where almost everyone had 100+ ping (1 guy with 200+) and hit reg was all over the place and the spread/recoil of my weapon was larger for some reason when moving.
Put a goddamn ping limit on the servers, no point having servers for dedicated regions if people from other side of the world are gonna jump in and make the servers take a shit.
Today has been frustrating enough with the idiot teams, and the people who are magically being able to shoot you through the EV, Seriously being headshotted by kira/vasilli through the ev is not fun not sure if it is a hack or what but that needs to be fixed aswell pretty sure you are not meant to do that.
[quote=“D’@athi;105515”]Still some occasional lags here and there. Also Routing between your provider for the Amsterdam-servers (at least I guess that’s where these ones are located) and Deutsche Telekom is way off. 65-70 ping a server in “main”-europe is simply not acceptable, even the servers is London are only at about 45-50 ping.
On top of that, the two evenings I now played, again, I got more than just a few ppl with pings around 150, some even nearing 200, on the servers. Some of them naturally lagging/spawning/teleporting/whatever you call it, so beeing between hard and imposiible to hit.
To be honest, connection-wise, it gotten even worse than before, when I regulary played the game.[/quote]
[quote=“Lumi;105538”]Today I joined a server that kicked me twice to the main menu for some error (didn’t specify which).
Yesterday I used quick join to play an execution and ended up in an American server with more than half the players being European too. How come that quick join doesn’t respect the region and even consistently puts EU region players in an American server if there were empty European servers?[/quote]
For whatever reason quick play cannot figure out what regions to put players in. I’m near Chicago, which means that US East servers are great and US West servers are good. But as often as not, I’ll get thrown into the European servers.
An improved algorithm would be ideal, but as a short term fix it would be nice to let players have the option to manually disable regions for quick play. Everyone would be a lot happier if I was able to opt out of the European servers.

I would be a lot happier also if you opted out of the European servers too xD
Or you could all learn to use the Server Browser Filters and never ever have to worry about it again, takes about 5 seconds to setup and is set and forget.
Maybe it is the gap under the EV where anyone can shoot through and get your feet? Or is it like right through the middle of the model?
Atleast there is known bug that EV becomes invisible and you can shoot thru it in bridge.
Its same kind of bug that UG doors had

Through the middle of the model 100%.
I’ve had this bug from the other side. The EV is invisible and you can shoot right through it, but I guess it doesn’t happen to everyone on the server at a time. Happened to me a couple of times but I tend to leave the server when it happens so I don’t know if it clears up over time.

i had this once. All objectives were invisible and you could shoot through them. After the first wave i had to ask and indeed it was only me so i left.
Lately i happen to have more and more of these little glitches and connection issues. Ping spikes, teleporting and this weird spawn in execution even though I’m still in the loading screen
Big freezes on EU servers tonight, as usual…
Got an impressive moment where I shot a grenade and it went sideways…
Yep, it seems they want their EU-customers to go to Snowstorm without a second thought. At least I know my connection to the then-beeing-on-fire colocation which took WoW down for half-a-day, seems to be good, on ANY carrier.
And after this, not feeling like playing on a 56kbps modem again, like it feels playing DB atm. Not even talking about the “NEWS” which seem to be a kind of rusty. Getting really fed-up with this.
Sry @splashdamage, but if you got to save this hard, probably just end this “cash-grab”, or, if you really don’t need to, put some pressure on your server-provider? It simply can’t go on like this in a “Fast paced competetive shooter”.
I mean, you didn’t realy calculate on people paying to play some obviously unfinished beta?

Psh, grenades aren’t supposed to throw perpendicular to your hand? What???
Yeppers, normal stuttering and a couple corner kills/deaths. Had a fancy matchmaking game too where, judging from the chat we had during the game, 9 out of 10 players had a “connection error - reconnect” problem quite simultaneously.
4 times in the same game.
Oh, and the last one? He complained of freezes and dropped out before the warmup ended ¯_(ツ)_/¯

So people who experience this bug get some major advantage!?!
That sucks, that put me into rage mode last night, now I know its just a glitch ill just leave the server and try another one…
AU servers are having an absolute meltdown. People are lagging so bad that one person that I was spectating teleported from spawn straight to the EV on bridge and threw 3 proximity mines (Soon came to 2) and blew up 3 people, which teleported from air to aground because of the explosion.
I had 5 disconnect messages on the same server yesterday, the servers need some TLC ASAP.
