What does this symbol mean

I can't show it since I don't know how it appears and it didn't get explained when connection symbols in matches appeared so this is the symbol.

A yellow Dimond behind a outline of a Dimond

    Packet loss? Although I thought it was red

    Packet loss, it means that somewhere between the server and your computer some bit of information is lost


    Directly quoted from the patch notes in which it was implemented:


    • Improved Feature: HUD Connection Indicators The in-game connection indicator has been improved to show more detailed information during connection issues stemming from ping and packet loss
      • Ping is represented by a vertical bar icon
      • Yellow = Ping over 100ms
      • Red = Ping over 200ms
      • Packet Loss is represented by a double-diamond icon
      • Yellow = 2%-5% packet loss
      • Red = More than 5% packet loss
    • Your own Ping / Packet Loss icons are displayed above the Survivor List
      • Players are notified when another player is experiencing severe connection issues (Red for Ping / Packet Loss)For Killer issues: A unique red icon appears above the Survivor List for Survivors
      • For Survivor issues: A red bar appears next to their name on the Survivor List

    When I saw this patch, I thought it would be kind if you presented it with images and not just text. It's a little confusing, isn't it?
