Kevkof 806 Posted September 25, 2019 (edited) That sounds like a routing issue, while it is really bad at the moment for players in Oceania that should improve. This is what was mentioned in the most recent blogpost Quote WORLD CONSOLIDATION In October after releasing names, we will be finally consolidating Jericho and Citadel giving our players the ability to play any character in any region. This isn’t like a traditional server merge. This is a significant architecture change allowing us to expand more Action Districts so that North American players can play with other regions and so that our Asia-Pacific, South America, and Russian players can have better latency. We haven’t nailed down specific locations for new Action Districts, but we are evaluating options for new servers in Los Angeles, New York, Moscow, Singapore, or Rio. These Action District servers will be marked in the Advanced list by region, but will be available to all players to join. This is a prerequisite for mission phasing and matchmaking changes that will be launching after the Engine Upgrade. In a TL;DR: All characters will be able to play on any server, no more NA/EU characters. And the districts will be spread out more around the world, that should get you some better ping. I have also heard from players in Australia that using a VPN really helped them lower their ping.

Maybe routing and stuff improve down the line, but for now a VPN might be worth a try. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
