For more then a half-year now, ever since switching ISP, i wasn't able to play a any PDX game in multiplayer.
I pretty much constantly desync, sometimes in lobby, sometimes in a month or year after game starts, yet the bandwidth is enough to perfectly keep up at fastests speeds, until my date suddenly stops for no reason, while others are still fine, until i get left behind and will eventually lose connection if i don't disconnect.
I tried many things, such as disabling firewall, opening specific ports or enabling DMZ host, trying out crossplay version that doesn't depend on steam servers and none of them worked.
Now while it's possible that this is on ISPs end, i haven't experienced any problems in other online games developed by any other company, it's a really strange scenario. I was able to even host dedicated servers for my friends trough cmd.
Playing on shared mobile data from phone does work, so it's not on my PCs end.
