Having very high ping (350+) while playing with a host that I normally have around 50 ping with in other games.

That's likely due to incorrect network settings of your host, then Eco tries to connect you to the host via a relay server which is in northern EU. Make sure your host has configured network correctly and forwarded ports.

No one else has the ping issue, and considering I live in the northern eu that shouldnt cause issues for me

It would, as you go from your place to the relay server, back to the original server. Other options are your ISP choosing weird routes to that server, in any case it's a networking issue.

As an update it seems that no matter who hosts I will have 350+ ping and if I host others will have 200+, so I guess this game just doesn't like my connection. I do have strict nat (that I cannot fix cause I cannot open ports on my provider) but usually only have 40-50 ping when playing games hosted by the same people.

Mh, if it really happens on all servers and you're not affected by relay, I guess there is some weird routing happening on ISP side. There really is nothing that could make the game 'not like your connection'.
