Have you ever suffered "KICK MINI PING"?

I've been kicked so many times because of my low ping (lower than 100) in S&D mode in Delta Server. Last night I tried more than 10 rounds and I got kicked EVERY TIME. Someone cried "KICK MINI PING" before every time I got kicked. It made me very confused and angry.

What's wrong with a low ping? As far as I know a high ping (usually higher than 200) causes lagging and delaying response. In a serious match a high ping player might be kicked. Have you ever suffered "KICK MINI PING" too? How to avoid being kicked for this reason please?

Why would you play in Delta?

Nothing is wrong with low ping besides the fact that you might get kicked because of it.

And yes, I've been kicked because of my "mini ping". You can't always avoid getting kicked because of a low ping, but you can play with trusted friends, clanmates, or just acquaintances to avoid being kicked.

welcome to the club!

i have over 500 screenshots from my lifetime of playing CF of me getting kicked for either low ping (20-25) OR JUST OWNING too much...

I resemble the remark mini ping , I play u.s.south servers and get kicked all the time

Delta eliminates hackers staff sgt. and below , Higher Ranked servers are needed

I think that this prevention of allowing a player continuous access to a room on a particular server, due to the ping he/she has, seems like an interesting to discuss.

This logic is applied in both sides of the issue, low pingers (less than 100) and high pingers (more than 100).

I chose 100 as the average, but I do not know which is the average ping in all of CF.

Now then onto my question at hand:
Do you believe that to kick someone solely based on latency value, without regards to any detrimental game experience, is fair?
Remember, you may have kicked someone with high ping in the past. Or low ping.

And if the answer is "not fair", then what can YOU do about it to ensure fairness?

Thats why it's better in UK4, Everyone < 100 ping.

Sucks for you rest of worlders

I get kicked for this quite often. I have 15-20 ping in alpha through echo servers. But mostly I get kicked for getting 10-20 kill streaks in a TD without dying and every idiot assumes I must hack cuz they've never pulled that off before. Even though I'm not shooting people through walls or doing anything suspicious like busting headshots WAY too fast or anything. They're just jelly they have 250 ping and you don't.

What I don't get is why you would even bother playing with over 150 ping at all. I get about 120-150 ping in the UK servers and that's not even that bad. But I don't want to play with ping like that even. How is it fun to play an FPS when you warp all over the maps and none of your bullets reg? Go play CF:BR. Abandon your CF:NA accounts and go play where your bullets actually hit the target.

That or come get shot over and over and over and over again by people with 15 ping.

and cry.

all night.

forever.

Always..

/thread.

People are just jealous cause there ping sucks. They say its not fair, but blame your internet provider (modem etc.). And people who cant accept the fact they died are just plain losers. And how many times i say : ITS JUST A GAME!!!

This problem only exists on the US servers cause in Uk the average ping is extremely low. Based on my last games it is ~70ms.

I don't think that kicking low or high pingers is the same. When you play with a high ping against another high pinger then you will experience lag. It does not lag as hard as against low pingers but the lag exists and is easy to notice.

When there is someone with a low ping playing against another low pinger then there is almost no lag (excluding the lags caused by the engine).

Keeping that in mind decreasing the average ping is going to create a better game experience. Doing the opposite obviously causes the opposite effect.

So kicking high pingers and forcing other players to invest some money for a better connection seems legit to me. The players who still lag although they got a good connection obviously play on the wrong servers or the wrong version. If they mind being kicked they are still able to choose another version. Low pingers normally don't have this choice at all.

This happens to me like everyday. I got 15 ping in Alpha and Brovo servers and all i see is. Kick Mini Ping and a few seconds later. Kicked!!!!

Nope, cos i play in the UK servers


have been kicked for bunnyhoping before though,

"KICK mastermann1, hes doing that invisi jump glitch!"



also it sucks when you have 20 FPS and 20 ping, your hitboxes dont lagg but you can hardly hit anything cos of FPS issues....

Usually mini pings get kicked because they are either Ace or just completely owning the nubs/Br's during the match. I got kicked for a mini-ping (86) while they other team had a player with a ping of 20 =.=

Thanks for the response. Yes it is a issue of lag and hence low pingers would kick high pingers. But what about when it's the other way around? Higher pingers kicking low pingers? On an overall look at the kick, it is really coming down to a ping stance, is it not?

Why would high pingers, unable to play "normal" games due to being kicked out of many, if not every room they come by just by their horrid ping; then be looked down upon for finding a community of players with similar ping, and just kick any that would have either higher or lower ping than them?
^meaning, why would higher pingers then be looked down upon for kicking any that would have either higher or lower ping than them?
