Sorry if this has already been talked about but I could not find a thread about it.  Since the servers were added back to US East my ping has gotten very bad.  Where my pings on the "x" servers were around 40, now they are over100-130.  My internet provider is Verizon FIOS.  I know that there has been some problems with Verizon in the past.  Just wondering if others are seeing the same issues with the same internet provider or another one.  I have also see some rubber banding as well.  The servers don't seem to be that smooth.  I hope it is only me.  But I wanted to say something just in case that it could let the devs knows.

Even if my ping does settle down I've been having a hard time getting my shots to connect + the issues you mentioned.
I'm hardwired with top shelf ;D Belden Cat6 Cable on Xfinity 105mbps.
Wish I had FIOS here. Heres speedtest from FL to NY. (isn't that where the servers are_)

No issues with ping, but I have severe teleporting bouts just about every single match on any server at this point.

Now that you mention it, my ping was fine tonight. This last week though it would spike over 100 and then back to the 40s.
Maybe its being worked on_ Maybe its an ISP problem_ Who knows.

There will be times where I have 20 ping, and other times where I have 90 ping. Depending on how the server is feeling :/... And it will sometimes change between maps too...

ThirdEye and I were having issues tonight on Central MA servers where the hitscan shots weren't registering at all for about 1-2 seconds, In one fight I did kill my opponent with a T-32 Bolt only after firing a few shots that didn't seem to register, a couple seconds later he went down but I was not firing. This happened several times to each of us so we are not imagining it.

edit- Our pings our stable. My own was at 40 steady.

Same here.  There was a point I shot at ThirdEye's badonkadonk four or five times with the SS and no dice. There was a point where I swear I should've died -  I was avoiding(I thought I was at least) ThirdEye's shots along with someone else's who aided him, then it got to the point where I was just turning in a circle like, "I'm suppose to die now", and managed to cheat death.

In my experience it doesn't matter the ping I possess, I will be prone to teleports, lag, and bad hit detection at one point or another...tonight it felt like Hawken was running very smooth for me; minor hiccups here and there - someone was saying that everyone was teleporting on the map Prosk, but in that game it was running fine for me - in that particular instance, no issues whatsoever. I'm just pointing out the observation -  at least in my case - that a low ping doesn't represent great gameplay.

I never had these issues on the "x" servers.  But now, I am getting them, did they move back to the Amazon servers_  Hopefully they figure out the issue and get it resolved soon.

Pings have increased for me in AZ in the west and east since the change.

Shots not registering when you really really need them to be there is not fun.

Hopefully this thread will be read by someone that can do something about it.  Hopefully the subject will make a dev want to read it.

I had a match on Sunday night kind of like the above... It was really odd when I died from shots fired from a player I had just finished killing 4 or 5 seconds earlier.

[Call_Me_Ishmael]

All night I've had mis-registrations with hits
