I've been playing for a number of months now and its probably my current favorite game, but my God the servers are getting worse and worse and it's become unplayable. I haven't changed my settings or connection and I'm running it on the same rig I always have but every time I get on there's more packet loss than before. My ping never goes above 32 and every other game I play runs totally laglessly, but not this game anymore. Hits never seem to connect anymore and always end up going through each other with their effects activating seconds after the fact, and everyone seems to teleport rather than walk. It'll run fine sometimes for a second but never for more than like 15 seconds at a time. At this point it's unplayable and I'm gonna uninstall it until they address the issue, because it's been a long time coming thus far. If anyone knows why this is or how to remedy it I'd be very grateful, because I love this game and I don't want to have to buy Chivalry 2, but they're not making it easy on me.

Please always mention which server, time, or at least region. It is helpful to know if other people on the server are experiencing the same issue as well. It is not an easy problem to track down if everything works fine for (mostly) everyone else. The more people with the problem, the easier to track down as it is likely something on the servers side.

Most issues seem concentrated on NA servers, which we already switched providers for at one point several months ago, that helped a bit. But some new issue with routing in NA popped up the past week or two, which caused a lot of posts on reddit to show up as well. That issue was supposedly resolved, and the complaints seem to have gone down, although it might not have gone away for sure.
