VPN to reduce ping?

Post by blind bryan »

So random question for good tech guys or jlv. I'm getting like 110-120 ping in the rf races. If I was to use a vpn and put it as close to possible to the server address (new jersey I think?????) would my ping drop?

Also if the aus or euro guys did this would it help them any? Has anyone tried using a vpn for long distance ping like that?

Think Aussie lag to Europe (300+ ms) is more benefitting from it. 110-120 isn't bad in this game.

It'd depend on the routing but I'd expect the VPN to be worse in most cases.
