Post-Update Server Performance Degradation

Status:	Duplicate
Added by:	reanukeeves0001 on July 27, '26
Reported for:	Forefront - v4.1.1 Auto

Steps to Reproduce

1. Just play

Explanation

Ever since the last update that introduced dragging the servers seem to be worse overall. I have Co firmed with various groups of players ranging from EU to NA.
I will go into more detail below, as well as attach various media evidence.

1. the rate people come across red clocking in servers seems to have increased by an order of magnitude, I rarely find a match without it now. This commonly results in delays in damage dealt and dying after killing an opponent and vice versa.

2. Server crashes becoming more prominent (no evidence). I personally have had way more "sequence out of bounds" crashes than I've had before, I have no idea why as it can happen when I'm stood perfectly still in the respawn menu or when I'm playing. I do not know how to provide evidence for this other than a screenshot of the crash screen.

3. Strange server crashes that render damage null and everyone invisible (like to video here, as I can't clip for some reason Check out this video "recon time" https://www.twitch.tv/mr_reanukeeves/v/2826979806?sr=a&t=1177s)

Overall the experience just seems to feel "less smooth". Once again I don't k ow how to provide evidence for this but I can provide screenshots of chat messages if that contibutes at all.
I have asked around various forefront communicaties and the consensus is it seems to be worse on the American servers. Some Europeans have had issues but seems way less frequent.
