Yes please, I'd love to have <30ms ping all the time, but that would add about 70ms for most of North America.

Diddums....

[TinFoilHat]

UK based. Have gone from 112-125 to ~94ish. Majority of EU players in my unit also reporting similar improvements.

[Gryphorim]

I've seen a lot of people saying this an ISP issue, however I've seen Telstra, Optus and Dodo customers all saying their ping has jumped to 370+ and some (lucky) individuals from all of those ISPs with unchanged or marginally better ping.

[PhoenixFire55]

Gonna add my 2 cents.
Western Russia here, pings went up from 120ms to 140-210ms. What annoyes most is that prior to server move it was 120ms every game now it jumps up and down for no apparent reason.

[AssaultPig]

my ping increased a little bit, which I guess is to be expected since I'm on the NA west coast. Still kinda stinks though.

PGI apparently doesn't consider VPN use cheating (for some insane reason), so people who are really having trouble might try using one to get a better/more stable route to the servers.

Moscow, Russia here. My ping didn't change significantly, but I'm not surprised. Montreal or Toronto, it's pretty much the same digital route from Moscow.

Use a VPN to connect to the servers, and then tell me it's not an ISP routing issue.

Using the routes Aus players have posted in the patch feedback thread, some are having traffic, routed to Italy and France before coming back to canada.

[Matta]

I'm from Croatia, Europe.

Before changes my ping was 150ms, rock solid.
Now, it varies from 120ms to 185ms, but game has far more lag now.

Anyway, in overall, it's slightly worse than before.

[SirLankyIII]

Since the change over my connection has settled from an average of 260ms at the old location, to an average of 300 at the new location, +/- 20ms depending on time of day and network congestion.

This is from Melbourne with Telstra cable, I appear to have been saved the hassle others have suffered from routing issues. That said, a 40ms increase is painful and not much fun with energy weapons.

[Lupin]

When looking for average pings this weekend from UK and 100 to 110, from 120-130.

So a little better.

[Livewyr]

Wisconsin: Went from 26 to 38. Where the hell did you move? The North Pole?

[Spr1ggan]

Before the migration my ping would be between 120 and 140. Now it starts at 120 and will now jump to near 200 and bounce between the 2 during matches. It's terrible and my hit reg is worse now, especially with srms.

[Spiritwalker_]

Living in Australia's Top End, Mine has gone up to 400 maximum. I don't know how much of this I can take.

[Widowmaker1981]

for what its worth, my ping from the UK has dropped a small amount, was 110 - 120, now 100 - 110 (which is perfectly playable in either case)

De-Sync still happens occasionally though.

So here is my ping test to the new server

[A banana in the tailpipe]

My ping went from 25/29 to 35/39 so it must not have moved far.

[Oktoglokk]

Australia, west of Sydney. My ping has gone from 240-260 up to 300-400, lately seems mostly 400. My local friend that plays has had an even worse ping, about 50 higher than mine on average, whereas before patch his was usually better than mine by 5-10ms. We're both using the same ISP, Telstra.
We've both stopped playing.

Which ISp you with, and where is the traceroute going?
