Strange "lag" issues

So lately Ive had some strange issues with delay ingame.

My ping is 35-40ms like its always been. My fps is locked on 155 and it keeps rolling 153-155 like always. But when I play the game it feels like im palying in NA with ~140ms like everything is slightly laggy. The game used to be really responsive on EU and now its like playing in NA, everything happens with a slight delay. I die alot behind corners. I play hitscan but when I shoot I dont get instant hits, but the dmg comes with slight delay just like in NA.

What should I do? Everything like ms / fps looks normal idk what to do? Or did something happen with the server or something?

Yeah thats the thing, everything is “normal” but it feels slow and like playing in NA aka. ~100ms more than im used to.

Oh well… I hope they fix it since the sole reason I dont really like playing in NA is the feeling of the delay. Especially playing hit scans. One thing I noticed today playing pharah was also really delayed rocket dmg for example and some times when i hit someone with splash (i got the hit reg etc) and prolly dealt dmg (or idk?) but the enemy hp bar didnt appear (like it should when u deal dmg).

Oh and one thing, I played brig a few days ago, stunned a hammond, or “stunned”. Stun went on cd, hammond took dmg, hit marker appeared, but he didnt take dmg. Strange things like that has happened only lately in EU. NA I understand because of the ping it felt alot like playing when we had the 30 tick servers or w/e. Now its back in EU and also it feels weird, maybe its because im so used to better tickrate and lower ms idk.

I really wished there was some known issue that they are looking into or there was some bug with gpu dirvers or something that can be fixed / patched.

I have had the same issues.
Running 155 fps smooth, low ping 20-30. But the servers actually warp for me. When I play tracer or genji I noticed it the most.
I am actually bungeeing back and forth. My last game I was playing tracer, i blinked past an opening. and I died a full second later. The killcam showed me that i blinked away, magically appeared at the same spot a second later (no i didnt recall) and then got shot in my blink animation.
With genji before that, I dash see myself move, suddenly I am back at the previous spot and my dash is not on cooldown.

Today is a sunday, and it often feels at high peak days this is going on.
If it is a server thing, then by gods I hope they fix this, if its a patch thing…
This honoustly needs to get fixed because its impossible to play some heroes now that have high movement speed abilities.
