    Has anyone else noticed that pings do be suspiciously high,

    Even if you go to find a UK based server (where in any other game you could expect pings of 30-70) you will find your ping is 130+.

    Loads of my clan , who are based in UK are also seeing this, where they'd usually have 10-40 pings its still 100+

    If its any kind of server outside the UK you're looking at 2-300 +

    Though in saying that, when playing on some servers where it says you have a 200+ ping, it plays ok most of the time. Something must be getting lost in translation

    Anyone else seeing this ?

    yeah, some servers come up at 50ms on the browser, and about 130 in game. I dont really notice the latency though tbh

    Im pretty sure, the pings in game are just ''broke'' and are not really your real ping.

    When on the browser of TiG server my ping suggests 15ish I think. When In game It's 200+. No lag though, so I never pay attention to it.

    I remember having high pings 100-200 before on some newly released game.... they ended up fixing it after a patch or two
