Since the 25th anniversary update, a lot of players in TFC have been noticing latency issues across a wide variety of game servers. These issues include "ping spikes", increased ping in general, but most notably an issue where the ping will report to the scoreboard and net_graph as being normal but it feels like you're playing with double or triple the reported ping.
These issues seem to happen across a wide variety of players from 4 different continents on game servers that run different configs, hosts, different regions, different builds of HLDS etc etc etc. Which leads us to believe the underlying issue might be related to one or more of the recent updates made to the game.
We have exhausted every possible option to try and resolve the issue but have not had any success yet, we have changed peoples routers, ISPs, configs (rates etc.). We changed servers, changed hosts, tried different HLDS versions, changed location of the servers etc etc etc.
We would like to know what is going on, specifically if any changes were made in regards to the networking side of the game? The game has become borderline unplayable for a not insignificant amount of players in a already tiny community. We have a Discord feedback thread going where people report their issues, if anyone would like to have a look at that?
