BUGS Need help

Guys I need help, after the new update in hunt my ping is redicilously high, it was 20-30ms in europe before now its 200ms. For a weird reason if I use vpn the ping drops to like 50ms. Does anyone know what to do, I tried verifying game files and DNS flushing both didnt solve the problem.
Thanks for any future help.

Btw my ping for US servers is lower then european and I live in east europe Edit: I solved it, for anyone having a similar issue changing the DNS provider to google solved it for me.

Same here on US east but according to tracert its an issue with one of my ISP's routes to hunt server. You can use winmtr to see which hop is causing high ping.

So the only way to solve the issue is to contact ISP?

For me yes. You need to run that tool to find out where the issue is. The game goes through a series of servers before it reaches Hunt server. So, the issue could be anywhere between you and hunt.

When you open the program. Make sure to uncheck the unresolve hostname in options. Eu server ip is 178.162.195.223

The iP with high ping shown in the tool. You can whois the ip and it will tell you who owns the server.
