Adding automatic region sorting to Playerunknown’s Battlegrounds was supposed to solve the problem of jerks disrupting games by connecting to distant servers where they’d lag around with high pings. In reality, last week’s update caused more problems. Players could find themselves sorted–and locked–onto servers that clearly weren’t in their local region, and in laggy games with folks thrown in from all around the world. Not the best. Developers PUBG Corp today admitted that yeah, they muffed it up, and say they’re trying to fix it. A partial supposed fix has already gone live, and the full fix is due to be in place next week. Deary me.
