I can also confirm it, getting RakNet pings of ~300ms regardless of region (pinging the server directly gives ~50ms). There is a thread (from 9 days ago) on r/RobloxHelp (which I am not sure if I am allowed to link to) with about 30 users complaining about high pings, something might be wrong on Roblox’s end.
EDIT: It seems to be account-specific, my alternative account is getting pings of ~100ms on the same computer and network.
I got this issue while I was playing bedwars, I got 2347 ping.
im having this same exact problem, I’ve been emailing roblox for DAYS and they haven’t helped one bit. It’s an account-specific sort of issue. Does anybody have any fixes? Or does roblox have to fix this themselves.
Same problem here, I have high ping everywhere even tho my internet connection is fine. The only thing that lags are roblox experiences, anything other I use is perfectly fine.
UPDATE: I now have this issue too. Gone from 15-30ms in my own host to 150-165ms in a single player server on my game.
Very aggravating issue that just seems to be spreading and getting worse.
Where are you located, There is currently no servers in Latin America, Africa, Oceania and middle east.
Check the detailed forum post here:
4 regions/continents does not have servers, if you are in one of listed above, your ping will be higher
Not the cause of it, I am not in any of the listed regions.
I’m located in the UK. My ping was never higher before - it’s only today it’s started. But it’s fine if I use another account.
Then it’s something else, either due to issue with your computer, wifi or ISP/Censorship
Try signing out all other sessions and your own, and log back in
I don’t think it’s my computer or internet, this issue started with roblox and roblox only, anything other works completely fine.
Only roblox experiences have this issue, my ping can spike towards 10k even tho this was not issue few days back.
I also tried everything possible found online to solve this.
It’s not his computer, or even wifi. It’s happening to a lot of people. It’s a problem on roblox’s end.
the average ping in my experiences are also averaging around 450 to 900ms out of nowhere…
This was never the case (it used to be around 150ms)
I’ve gotten this issue approx. two or three roblox game updates ago. I normally average around 20-30 ms in most games, now I average 200-300, but the server response time is still as if it was 20 to 30, however this causes issues for my playing experience as well as development. Any fixes?
Also happening on my account. It’s been occurring for about one-two weeks. Would love to get an update if anyone has found a solution.
There is no solution that we can do at the moment. I emailed roblox for about a week and we came up with no fix. It’s a problem thats affecting a lot of people right now, they did inform me that they would try and find a fix for it. But they never told me a timeframe. We just have to wait for now.
UPDATE: Issue was resolved, my ping is now stable. I have no idea what caused this issue and it apparently resolved by itself.
I emailed Roblox and after a few long days of back and forths, they emailed me saying that the team is “aware of this issue” (which is probably a dismissal). Ping is still high on my end and apparently it’s not just me.
Can we please get a response from someone at Roblox?
This is also happening at my location. Seems to have no solution than Roblox resolving or rolling back previous server changes as Before I had ~50ms recent updates added a 200ms to it. I’ve been able to replicate this from my Desktop PC to Laptop and Phone on Data and Wi-fi. All have the same high ping indicating it is not my hardware/router.
My ping is also fine in every other game CS:GO/Minecraft/Battlefield. Definitely Roblox’s problem.
I’m not sure if it is related in any way, but in my case servers started completely crashing over time after around 20th of june. It seems like it might be caused by some memory leak which is not caused by me (i was not changing/updating anything at the time when this issue started happening)
