    so explain why i and many other people had messed up pings 2-3 days AFTER the last update then?
  • He can't. Several treads have been raised for the issue but GMs and MODs are looking the other side when it comes to this. They are just answering when it suits them.

    It's cos there more interested in the $ then the players. New patch says all really.

    It has nothing to do with the game or the servers I say its more your problem. My ping is fine after updates.

    And all company's worry about money how do you think they operate please use common sense before you post.... And Z8 and all FTP game for that matter try to even out the disadvantages and advantages of mall players and non mall players.

    The fact that i and several other people posted they had higher pings after the last patch, and i kept asking in game when i could be bothered to contend with the lag, and quite a high percentage had a higher ping. So yea, its not just my problem. My internet + comps fine as i have had no other problems with other games.. just CF.

    You don't have ping problems because you're in Canada (or near there)! Lots and lots and lots of my friends have them! Its not "our problem"! Servers crashing and saying that they are full when they are not...is this also "our problem"? Yes, my "Windows" makes the servers crash... and my ping makes the new rooms not to start ... and my new video card casues that ... and probably YOUR ignorance!
  • 2 or 3 days after the patch people are still flooding download the patch, not everyone dl's the patch first day.

    be happy that your ping will probably go down


    try having 43 ping that shoots to 300-500 EVERYDAY, EVERYGAME

    I agree with your first part of the post, but the last part?

    seriously, you do know that a lower ping has big advantages on the high pings right? it's easier for you to hit them than for them to hit you!

    and don't tell me it's the other way around, I'm a networker myself, I know how it works, yes both sides have problems from it, but the higher ping is still more disadvantaged than the lower ping!

    and even if you still don't believe me, then think about this:


    all those low pingers from canada with 10 ping whine about laggers when they play against us, and if we tell them it's harder for us, they just say it's not. But why do they not try playing on west coast server then?

    if they say the higher pings has the advantage, then they should play west coast server, have a higher ping as well, and pwn those people from west coast with their low pings!

    oh guess what, I know a few canadians who tried it, and they all said it was f*cking impossible to aim with that ping against the low pingers. And their ping wasn't even as high on the west coast server as ours is on canadian server, so imagine what we have to play with! I mean, a ping around 50 ain't no problem, but once it goes above 100 it starts getting a bit more annoying, 100 is still playable imo, but whenever it goes 120+ it's very irritating, and when we have 160+ spikes it's just not fun anymore. I really feel bad for those people with 200+ or even more, I would probably freak out with that ping.


    just my 2 cents in this discussion.
  • I am having the same problem ping was 220-230 before the patch before last, now it has gone up to 270-280, and is constantly kumping up to 360-460, nothing is wrong with my internet as I have done everything to make sure it is ok, and I know it is.

    eul0gy ment something very different. His ping is generally 43 but often spikes (increases for short time) to 300 which ruins the game as at the end you can't play at all. Its better to have constant 150 ping than 43 jumping to 300.
  • after the patch by 2 days i have no ping lags

    its all fine...
  • i haven't noticed any differencemy ping is usualys in the 20's all of the time so ya... :)
