What the hell is going on with the servers?

A couple of days ago I decided to return to the game and the connection to the server started to disappear periodically (I only play on official European servers).
Previously, there were frequent packet losses, which many complained about, but it was rare when I was thrown out of the server, and now it has become too frequent.

What's the matter? There are already few people left in the game, and such a state of the servers simply discourages the desire to enter the game.

It's not an issue with the quality of the servers. Nothing has changed with the server hardware, nothing has changed with the code.

There are sometimes external issues that the developers have little to no control over, such as routing congestion, and on the extreme end, DDOS attacks. The developers report routing issues as best they can to their providers, and have DDOS mitigation (important word, it's mitigation, not prevention) features enabled for all official servers.

Even with these features enabled, the ability of players to play the game will always get interrupted unfortunately. It's frustrating for players, and it's frustrating for the developers, but neither can really do anything about it.

It's almost unplayable. It's sad dev can't control that but they have to do something

They have been doing everything they possibly can. It may be hard to understand, but the developers find this issue equally as frustrating because they know players are unable to play their game.

usually it is cross country or local routes issue.
The only solution is to place many servers in different places, could be done via community servers

also packet loss often caused by wi-fi interference in the multi-flat houses

Using rare "5G" helps a bit, but not enough in the prime time
