first, do check your own connection before blaming rl servers, here is how

hi, i dunno why nobody already posted a little how-to-check-my-connection tutorial but i will try it now... yes, psyonix already confirmed that there are problems with some servers,especially oce or sam, but i think its not always the servers... because for me in eu,i got maybe 1 out of 20-30 games where i have some lag/rubbberbanding...

so here are some quick hints to check your own connection

(1) sync the time! check your router time setting, also your windows/system time setting. best to choose a timeserver who syncs everything. either choose the windows standard timeserver or better choose one from here: http://www.pool.ntp.org ex. if you live in the us, try us.pool.ntp.org, if you live in germany try de.pool.ntp.org

sync the time on every device in your home network!

(2) dowload and install pingplotter https://www.pingplotter.com/download/

(3) play a game, experiencing lags/rubberbanding? quit the game, find the rl server @ /Documents/mygames/Rocketleague/TAGame/Logs open the Launch.txt and do a quicksearch (STRG+F) :7 search for the last entry, there is the ip (the number like 100.43.32.100 before the :7) of your last game. copy it.

(4) open up pingplotter and paste the ip into the target field and start the plot. the last entry is the rl server, normally the first 2-5 entries is your isp, between rl servers and your isp connection there is the peering/routing from your isp. let pingplotter collect data for 5mins or more. if everything is fine it should look like this: http://i.imgur.com/wMo6jjE.png, if its bad you will see some big red jitter lines in the graph, and above you will see where the packet loss happens. now blame your isp, your isp peering/routing or the rl servers :)

(5) sometimes there are other tools which can interrupt your connection to rl server... try to disable firewall/anti-virus tools and any other processes you dont need just for this testing routine. repeat from (3)

hope this works for some of you, but you will still have an evidence for yourself or maybe for your isp. if the routing is bad or your isp connection is bad. it helped myself some time ago to show my isp evidence that it is not my home network but their own routing which was just bad. not rocket league relevant but it took some weeks and some mails and phonecalls until they changed something to make my online experience better :)
