100 ping is one tenth of a second, so every action you do will be that far behind on the server, it's up to you too decide if that's too much or not

I’m thinking about purchasing a VPS from a company that collocates in Germany, and I’m located in the U.S. I’d assume my ping to the server would be in the 100-120ms range. Realistically for a survival server, does this really matter? I know that ultra competitive PVP players live or die by ping, but I’m not sure I see how it could make too much of a difference for normal survival.

Does server latency really matter for survival?
