Rubber Band Lag and ping indicator not correct

[Ekler]

i suffer today serious lag issues including Rubber Band Lag and even sometimes game freeze for a moment. Despite of this it ping indicator always show same number around 80 ms
seems like ping indicator shows fake data.

Same here. 49ms lag and during peak hours I am all over the place. Like everywhere. But if I sit still for a bit it will eventually show my true lag (was 49ms in combat, but after hanging out it is 420ms, which seems correct).

I am assuming this is because of server load. Some people rubber band hard (I am US Central) others in lower-pop areas are like “I’m not rubber banding!” My rig is a Ryzen 9, Nvidia 3070, 16 gigs RAM. I can pull a whole map in offline in 1440p and never drop below 90fps. So it isn’t a stutter, either.

Maybe it’s time to strategically upscale regional server capacities to handle the load. As of now, during peak hours, it’s unplayable. I have good-ish internet, too. I can stream 4k no problem. I played early morning and it ran like hot butter .
