Anyone else here finding pings to Siege games being much worse than normal? Usually my in-game ping is 200 or slightly under, but the past week and a bit it's been around 280 or even 300!

Mine has been normal but everything changes with today's patch due to change in net-code and server infrastructure.

Thanks, I should add it is 3 of us in Cpt experiencing this and we're all on different ISPs. Will try do some testing once the new patch is downloaded...

Last week's patch (19 September) seems to have fixed the poor ping issues me and other CPT buddies were having to WEU and NEU servers. We're back to sub 200 pings now compared to 300+/- prior to that.
