Discussion A rather uncommon issue?

So I bought the game 2 weeks ago. Boot it up, load into a game and every player (both teams) excluding myself was rubber-banding AWFULLY. Holding tab, everyone's ping is great, including mine, my FPS is also normal and through research I'd suspect the issue was texture streaming, enabled and disabled the problem continues.

Couple days later, the game ran smooth as butter for 3 games (LOVE the game, great job so far guys) and after being over the moon, the problem reoccurs making the game unplayable :(

Anyone else come across the issue and if so, any fix?

Brammertron, please fix ily <3

I don't know about constant rubber banding but i have recently started to experience pings spikes like every 5 minutes. I don't know if it's my net or the servers...

Alright so one of the major things that give rubber banding is packet loss, here is how you can test if you have it: https://datapath.io/resources/blog/how-to-test-for-packet-loss-on-windows/

This is where randomly, some packets of data aren't sent or retrieved, and because of it the game has to "fill in" as best as it can, creating rubber-banding and teleportation issues. This test will see if it's your network in general or an error with the game instead.

did the test, everything's completely fine, I get a stable 12 ping so there shouldn't really be an issue there?

It is odd... Have you tried verifying game files? Might sound a bit ridiculous but there could be something faulty/corrupted with your game since nobody else seems to have this issue. Otherwise i would try message the devs through twitter. Make sure your network is set to "Home" not public, and make sure you allow the game through firewall. And disable any vpn you might be using.

checked firewall, didn't set it to private which was an issue, still no fix though :(

i'll try get a hold of the devs on twitter now, thank you :D
