    Even like 10 years ago I would frequently get a steady 30 ping in heaps of different multiplayer games. I don’t play as many games these days but I know enough people who play online, even in competitive shooters, who don’t have any issues.

    Maybe they live in a small town somewhere, because at least in the bigger cities it’s not that dire.

      They’re talking about getting matched to servers overseas. You’re definitely not getting 30 ping to Singapore, which in most cases is the best server you’ll get if there isn’t an Australian one.

      Not sure which games they want to play that don’t have Aussie servers though. I don’t play any shooters.
