The fact that such events are mostly experienced by the same players makes me think that the firewall of the game may be weak.

Hi TPA Umay,

This is the big downside of the P2P system used to handle battles, which relies on all connected parties to share their network and pc resources to create the connection.

if this happens a lot with the same players, it would be more accurate to point out these players may not be able to handle the load of the P2P.

So what kind of measures do you take against acts that make this type of game look bad (p2p)?
Wouldn't it be better if people within a certain ping range play games on the same server?

Unfortunately, it can sometimes be used as an exploit when the player deliberately disconnects the internet for a few seconds in order to delay. ;>

This is a very good idea.
It would be great if the developers opened another server (in Turkey for example). But, as you understand, it costs a lot of money...

Although more specific regional server can in theory improve it, that's not a guarantee.

There are plenty of people from Russia or Eastern Europe that have no issues with connectivity, while at the same time people from say Germany can have the issue. These issues also occur between NA players.

There are multiple factors that can make P2P connection bad, not just the internet speed. Now I'm not saying P2P is the best option, but as of now, it is the only option.

Taleworlds will not release tools for dedicated servers until they exit early access.
