Inventory ops take 400ms+ with cross regional matchmaking
Even though ping to the games proxy server is 27ms (or ~160ms when the game connects abroad directly) Picking up sth. or dropping from inv., or looting takes half a second per item (I'd say 450ms avg).
When looting together with people from the servers country, they get everything they want first. Besides it feels yanky. I'm not sure what causes this, but its likely a sync-engine issue, only induced by a certain latency threshold, not the latency itself.
PS5. Observed constantly from playing in SA on NA servers, tried with the cross regional matchmaking, also tried separately with VPN to NA. Issue persists in both cases. As soon as a match happens on SA servers the problem doesn't occur. Please fix :Medbothappyicon:

Hi there,
Thanks for the report.
To help us investigate this further, could you please send us a short video showing the issue in action?
Please include:
the delay when picking up, dropping, or looting items
the server region or match context if visible
a few repeated examples so we can see how consistent it is
If you’re able to capture both a match where this happens and one where it does not, that would be especially helpful.
Please use your platform's capture button to take a video. You can upload the footage to a public video hosting site, like YouTube, then post the link here and we’ll be glad to take a look
Hello, I do not see a way to do this, as there is nothing on the screen indicating when input is registered by the client.
I have tried jumping and pressing the grab button immediately on jump, but it doesn't seem illustrative enough.
Region is South America (Paraguay), but again this only affects cross region matches. It is 100% consistent, I can immediately tell a cross region match by the presence of this issue.
