Connectivity issues and packet loss for CERTAIN matches

Hey! For the last 5-6 days, I’ve experienced rubberbanding, non-appearing sounds (e.g., the spray sound) and animations and an overall janky experience in certain OW2 matches. The issues never come up or resolve during a match, but rather start at the start of a new match and often just disappears after said match.

I’m on european servers and seem to exclusively experience the issues on [gen1] servers, such as 35.228.254.228:26569 and 35.228.254.228:26512. I don’t know whether or not this would be considered the same server, however, since I’m not to familiar with this :slight_smile: Hope this can be helpful.

The symbols for connectivity issues and packet loss are constant throughout the match when there are issues. During these issues, my internet is stable and the ping is usually fine. If I could get some help with this issue I’d be very thankful!

Having a look at my “ctrl+shift+n graph”, I saw that during affected matches, there are big spikes in LAT and both IND and RTT are stable but elevated. LOSS IN is also at 39% in comparison to 0% when it all works.

Edit: After some more testing I had issues in other servers than the ones above as well. I guess [gen1] is the common denominator, which I assume is the server.

Just an update: While trying different networks (used my mobile phone) to see if it was on the networks end, I couldn’t replicate the issue with it, and after that it just seemed resolved on my ordinary network as well. My guess is that something was fixed on the servers end, but yeah, I have no clue on wether trying a different network could’ve fixed it as well.
