[2020] Getting High Ping or Low Ping depending on the people you're with.


Original Post — Direct link

I started playing Valorant a couple of days ago, I'm in South East Asia, I've noticed that if I invited a person and I'm the leader of the group, I'd get good ping(50 - 60) but when other people invites me, I get bad ping(140-250). Is there like a fix to this? Or should I just avoid getting invited to, and be the one inviting people. I've seen a couple of people having the same issue, is it like cause of different servers type of thing? cause most of the people I play with are playing in SEA.

Are the players you're playing with located in the same country? When we matchmake we take ping of all parties into account and try to get the closest average server connection.

Custom games may default to the party leader's closest server.

We all live in the same country, but different cities. Would that have made a difference?

Only if there's weird routing from one of the internet service providers the player is using and how they connect to our servers.

What ISP is the higher ping one using? I can chat with our riot direct team to see if there's anything in our realm of control we can adjust.

Encountering the same problem in SEA. 40-50 Ping when playing solo but 100-180 when in a party. We all live in the same city but have different ISPs.

The enemy team usually has drastically lower average ping than our party as well.

Which ISPs are the people you're playing with on?

We are from the Philippines so our ISPs are PLDT, Globe, Converge and Sky.

Okay, that's good to know. I know we have seen some erratic connections and latency for players from the Philippines on a couple of the isp's you've mentioned. We're actively working to try to see what we can do to optimize the routes for some of those ISP's.
