Ping Problems

EzaOnCF · January 2011

Hi everyone.

I have a little problem. I play on the West Coast server, and that is the only place I play. 3 Days ago my ping was 190. 2Days ago it was 210, yesterday it was 230, and now it is 270. Is there a cause for this on the servers part, because I have heard other people complain that their ping went from 130 to 210 and other things like that. I am going to check out if there are any possible causes on my part, but nothing new has happened here.

Thanks.

No one abviously knows whether somethings up with the servers then...

TheDotKom · January 2011

happened to me too i had 60 ping now 80-80 T.T

Brian_Griffin · January 2011

I went from 60 to 120 and spiking over 1000 frequently in the past couple days on Alpha.

UK Server:

Was - 25 - 40

Now: 70- 80

Romanoman · January 2011

It doesnt have to be problem on the server..
First thing you should try is tracert 74.200.6.157 in command line..
I believe that is the ip of west coast, so it should show you which way you are routing to the server, mostly this is the thing which is wrong..
If so, there is not much you can do about..

Anyway yeah, it can be the problem on the server too, i experienced it once as well, but patch fixed it for me..

J_ymee · January 2011

Today I got 280 ping and usually I get around the low 200s.

Fking ping probs

I had 40-60 ping usally but recently spiked up to over 1000 any help im playing in Alpha Server...:(

whyamisobleu · January 2011

My ping used to be 25 and went up to 40 in the last 2 months..

xXMizuXx · January 2011

in the morning my ping is normal (60) but at night it jumps to 200+, its like its turning into some sort of lagging BR werewolf

MRain202 · January 2011

BR's are ugly enough... A warewolf version would be something to barf at.
But seriously, it must be something on the crossfire/z8games/smilegate/xtrap/etc. side that's causing this transformation... Crossfire used to be cool and awesome... Not so much when 80% of players are foregin and this night time ping spikes.

Im having ping spikes too, ):
My usual ping is 16-20 but now it spikes up to around 200-400, it happens during any time of the day.

EzaOnCF · January 2011

Better Now

My ping has now returned to 200. It aint 270 no more.

Thanks

bulletproofguy · January 2011

I live in Germany, and my ping is 18 on the UK servers. But when i join alpha server, it is 300-400 0.o

RE: [GAME ERRORS] Ping Problems

I also have the same problem.
My ping was running 127-128 for about a month and a half.
Later my ping runs to 130-300 with over 1000 ping that jumps every three minutes.

As you can see, i have 47, thats my regular UK ping.. If you have those huge numbers (about 200) in tracert output, that means your routing to server is bad, in reality it means this:

Anyway if your routing is good and with quick response, problem can be on server side too..

hdpredator · January 2011

So, let me ask this to everyone on this thread. What kind of internet are you guys using? DSL or cable? If your using DSL the problem is with your ISP. Lots of DSL users are having bandwidth problems all over the place. While a tracert (a.k.a. Trace Route) is a good test to indentify trouble spots run ping -t to see how "stable" your connection is at that address.

L0LchoobFace · January 2011

Well I live in The Netherlands. And it's close to UK. Friends at my school have around 10 to 30 ping. But how comes I have a way faster computer then them but still have 55+ ping?!?!?!

Well idc anymore cuz I'm going to move somewhere else...

maybe because servers are overloaded

Can be, but really, mostly the real problem is in the unsufficient connection..

Sorry for double post, as you can see your problems starts with 9th hop..
And if you want to have some fun watching which way your "signal" goes, you can try to put IPs of routers (on the end of each line) to this site: http://en.utrace.de/..
All you can do is contact your ISP if he is able to do something with it (mine ISP didnt helped when i requested while having this problem long time ago) or just wait, it can fix itself in a time

xXMizuXx · January 2011

personally i can careless about the people who live outside of the US, my problem is at night my ping jumps to 200 and in the morning its fine
