Since the Server change my ping has jumped from low 200's up to over 300 what are you lot playing at this is crazy a game that was playable and I have sunk money into on that basis is now basically hard to play at best with that kind of delay, what is going on is this a permanent change or is this teething issues.

Other who are having similar issue add a comment let me know how much and how many of us there are in this boat.

My ping has shot up quite considerably since the patch. Makes firing on the run nigh impossible

mine droped from ~175 to ~145 which I like

My ping before and after the server migration has remained about 50ms but performance is terrible. I have been seeing shots pass through or not damage mechs quite frequently. Lasers seem to have a huge delay as well from when they hit and the hit marker actually appears.

My ping sits at about 140-160, then shoots up to over 8000 during the desynchs, which have increased btw.
Out of the 7 or so games I tried to play last night I got ONE (count them, ONE) game where I wasn't desynched into oblivion.
This get's old fast, my patience with the game isn't infinite.

My ping is Horrific now hard too play at 300 but 400 is impossible to hit on the move and you take damage before your out of cover. On top of that the general server performance seems terrible hit reg is almost non existent for a second or two, well done on the sever selection seems a complete balls up.

I would not say that i would say the have done over some group to get a lower ping for others . .

sub 200 is pretty irrelevant for reaction time (hit reg etc differs) but why screw over any group for a seemingly minor benefit of others?

If i had to take a stab in the dark i would say they thought they were going to get a better result or this location is a bit cheaper.

Sub 200 isn't irrelevant. I can tell the difference between a 20 and a 70 ping in CSS. It makes a difference in mwo as well but not as large of one.

My Ping went from between ~130 and ~140 to ~115 and ~130 so it is better (it was most the time 115 to 117).

[Major Derps]

From 2 separate locations in Melbourne Aus, one on ADSL 2 and the other on ADSL, my ping has skyrocketed from 250-270 to 370+ (+ because it can be as high as 500, sometimes even over 1000). Desync is occurring more often than pre patch, and hit detection is way off. Long story short, game is unplayable for me.

My ping hovers between 250-300, but the performance is now in the toilet,. Chugs like a beast, I can barely move around much less hit anything since the servers are back up!

[Oderint dum Metuant]

Cheaper server rental, and appeasing the EU where a substantial portion of the player base resides hmm.
