I play Fortnite at a very high level, and one thing that has always annoyed me is that in creative mode you have a significantly better ping than in a real game and thus you can't practice properly.
Is there an application that can be used to artificially raise your ping to do just that?
No, that doesn't work either you have a good ping 1-30 ms or not 30-90 ms You can get a better ping, but it's usually not worth it
Doesn't it have an option for that?
In Tekken 7 you can simulate this in test mode for precisely this reason.
How are you going to get the one better ping? Your ping is the time between your PC and the server. You can't change anything on the server. Your PC has a latency of approx. 0-1ms, nothing can be changed. The ping is usually either bad because the server is far away or because the Internet connection uses older and / or complex technology.
As long as you do not want to book / buy your own fiber optic to the data center from your Internet provider, you can't improve your ping.
With a lot of luck you can maybe get 1-2 ms out of it if you use a high-end router at home and don't run any background programs like Discord or something like that. More is not possible
So sorry, but you can tell that you have no idea, my aim is not to get a better ping in the real game, but a worse ping in the creative mode
Why worse
Yes, of course, I personally use Trickle for things like that. But it is a Linux program, no idea whether there's something like this for Windows too.
Because I want to simulate the ping of a real game
