The closest would have to be around 2000km maybe further , might sound funny but many times when you are playing with such a ping handicap from when you die to where it shows the shooter they may have moved 5 meters in the game . The pings dont display correct / true ping reading ,BF4 was also the same ( would say ping of 60 but actually it was around 130 )

Some problems may be due to high pings.  
But..  
High ping does not contribute to 1 shot killing every enemy from far across the map with LMGs.  
High ping does not make you be able to drop a med kit immediately after firing a flare as a recon (without picking up tools from dead medics).  
High ping does not make to be able to spawn on a new tank everytime instantly after you’re dead.  
I encountered all the above situations. They’re obviously cheating.

If you complain about high ping, you may try Hong Kong servers instead of Japanese ones.
