Insane lag on EU servers

Last 5 days game unplayable due to high latency for me also.

I used to get 66-74 ms to both EU servers. Now I get 80-120 ms. It’s not the new server in Middle East, because somehow, I get 180 ms to that, but 170 ms to NA servers when I’m in Turkey. It’s a routing problem.

Yes, definitely a routing problem. I get disconnects when I get a huuuuge latency spike. I sometimes got a reloading screen and I am back immediately back in the game. Followed maybe by a spike that just kicks me out for good.

Seems to be fixed now, I’ve played a few games and everythings normal.

Not fixed for me. Still lagging like crazy and dropped packets all over the place.

Glad im not crazy!
did a full reinstalltion of everything! windows 10 all drivers blizzard app and OW
and the problem still persistis.

Great ping on speed test, but utter garbage ping on OW! even the little flying craft on blizzard word lag out, freeze, then shoot forward to catch up.

gotta say its very frustrating. Surely they gotta fix it soon, its been over 2 months for me.

Done this, but no luck for me.

My 30ms latency is not CONSTANTLY above 65 and it rises up to 80/90 and back down again with the occasional spike of 150+

its playable, but it isnt fun.

If im lucky it’ll stay at 65ish and ill get a goodish game, but they are few and far between and comp is out of the question during this annoying period.

I find it hard enough to climb as it is
