High Ping
Experiencing excessive ping? This is client-sided the majority of the time - we're hosted in a premium Datacenter, in a central location, with global peering to major ISPs, so everyone can achieve a decent playable ping, regardless of your location.
How can I fix it?
Ensure your own connection is stable. If you're using WiFi, ensure you're within a good range to your access point & switch to a wired connection if possible.
Try lowering your Render Distance. This will reduce the amount of data that needs to be sent to your client & will therefore result in lower ping on especially poor connections.
Check your bandwidth utilisation. If you've got Steam updating a game, or another device on your network, potentially a family members, maxing out your line, this will increase your ping drastically.
If it's a routing issue, try a VPN (or Cloudflare's WARP as a free alternative). This will route your traffic through their servers, and will generally achieve better routing. This may cause a minor increase to your normal ping, but will resolve any major ping issues.
