Red ping lives matter
20 minutes waiting for a lobby i will play against someones dial up too!
Different reasons:
1) Survivor has been trying to get into a game for ages because killers keep lobby dodging so he doesn't care about ping anymore.
2) survivor cares more about ping stability so he thinks rather a game with a stable 250 ping than a "jumpy" 90 ping.
3) survivor doesn't pay attention to ping because he's playing for too long and just readys up without checking the ping.
4) survivor doesn't know what that "red / yellow / red bar" even means and readys up anyways.
etc.
I don't mind jumping over the window 5 times or continuously running through the same path.
Because they want to play the game and don't want to waste an hour lobby hoping looking for a better connection.
I don't want to verse people with teleporting perk tho.

Im option 3, I usually forget and then I regret my life choices when I'm the survivor's version of the Nurse.
I don’t care what it is. I just want to play.
Sometimes it is night and I can not find a lobby till it pairs me with someone from another region and I just say oh well and ready up.
Idk, i dodge them to avoid unfun situations.
Ping usually has no severe effect on me anyways, i just take the insta-lobbies i can get
Had a guy who locked into my lobby with 750ish ping. Could never hit him and he bragged about how he used his lag to beat me. Since that point, any time I see a red ping lock in, I end my killer lobby.
That moment when, after waiting 10 minutes in the lobby, joins (from the ass-end of nowhere) the typical Claudette with 400 pings... forcing you to recreate a new lobby.
I know that feeling...it hurts...really hurts. 😶

why not? in this student residency at peak hours I play with super laggy surv and sometimes with killer got DC
Queue times are so bad that they éven deal with the red ping....
Did it once for fun, to see how bad a 400 Ping match will be. Was quite ok, a high stable ping is easier to handle than a jumping ping. Would not do it on a regular basis tho.
Other than that, it might just be that the Survivor is doing other stuff in the internet while in the Lobby. While waiting in the Lobby I watch Youtube-Videos or simply search something. So my Ping might jump up, but it will be fine when the game starts.
As a survivor I never play if I see red ping.
