Higher than normal ping times are usually caused by the route between your computer and the server being more congested than normal. Unfortunately there really isn't anything you can do about it.

Maybe there is a rush hour on the server.

Try coming on CF real early when the servers are empty and see if
your ping changes.

UK timing that would be 6 am

My ping is holding at 75.. Was 30/45 just in the last few weeks it has jumped. Im not the only one that has this problem.

If your ping is stable, all is normal. It if changes, check whe you log-in

Thats just it, it is stable, but like I said it was stable at 30/45.. in the last few weeks it jumped 70/75... all is not normal

wait, so mine is usually between 30 and 40. does it matter on how high the number is? and if so how?

I noticed that if I play on West Coast server, my ping is higher than on Alpha or the others.
So try to see whether is the server the problem.

Maybe it's a newb question, but don't know where I should look for such info:
what are the locations of CF servers? Can someone post it so people can figure out what server suites best for them?

In fact you can do something about routing.

I didn't get what was wrong with it.

Didn't get any PM also giving me a warning about what ever was wrong with my topic.
Weird.

What IP did you put into a VPN, fasttaker?
