The lag checking system is in dire need of being done in a non-dipshit way.

great now it's worse

great now it's worse. The problem wasn't JUST that it checks when you make a kill, it's a rediculous limit. What you have is one of the developers looking at his/her connection during a time when his connection and Trench's connection are in perfect shape, and using that as the basis for the checks. That's not gonna work.

What's worse, suddenly Trench's connection gets all crappy for a minute or two and nearly everyone in a dd jd or bd massively lags out. If the connection stays crappy for a while, people end up using up their lagouts.

The Internet is fickle, let's not forget this. Screwing up games all the time in the pursuit of consistent connectivity is a bad idea in a non-dedicated network environment. It just makes people lose interest.

yer just sour cuz you lagged out NINETEEN times in one game (lagger)

[Kawrae]

I've been having some S2C probs lately.

[GuruMeditation]

if i can't play and i'm an hour or so drive from the server there's a problem.

It's freaky the way your avatar dances to the music I'm listening to.

But yah. Another vote for "the way things are setup is stupid" camp. They've pretty much said everything that needed to be said.

Yup me to... tomorrow i got all day with 10.6% ploss s2c <_< and couldn't play any game in tw -_- ahh c2s was 0.0%.

[Zerzera]

Stop crying, stop lagging.

[SpaceHiker]

I pay over $100.00 per month for the best internet access that is available in my area, and still it's not enough to keep the Trench Gods happy. That sucks and it PISSES ME OFF. I play a fair game and don't know that I've ever been accused of cheating. I should not be getting constantly specced by this med spike thing.

[Server]

Ok this time i need to take my words back and agree with Jason. I've never lagged out in twd match without downloading huge amount of shit. Now i get this "MatchBot> LAG REPORT: Too high PLOSS Slow C2S [4.1 LIMIT: 4]" sometimes. You should be able to see if you're able to even play. So make a goddamn !lag command on bot or something so you can check if you're able or not. Ty.

"MatchBot> LAG REPORT: Too high PLOSS Slow C2S [4.1 LIMIT: 4]"

Yeah, I have been getting that as well lately.
Going into a twdd lately, I feel I have to cross my fingers and pray that I don't get specced. And when I do, it puts me off during the match.

Bottomline, we all have been complaining about this laghandling.... but in the end they just make it even worse.

I doubt whoever is doing this will listen and thinks they are eliminating cheaters... Yet, cheaters still evade and innocent players are put in spec.

Maybe their reasoning is; so what if a few random players get specced, atleast we are stopping the cheatertons.

[Randedl]

yea i don't even think this stuff is checking for lag anymore, it's just a ploy to slowly find a way to keep everybody in spec and hitting on internet girls.

i can only speak for the people i know are lagging out (my squad), the guys that i would say lag the most are staying in the game and the guys i've never looked at as laggers are unable to play.

[Jones]

The lagchecks are the best so far, funk off laggers.

i've changed my internet connection a few days ago... it was supposed to be faster but i just get 11%ploss at the game
I haven't been able to play and i have one of the fastest home connections available in europe... how is that possible!?! i'll send a lag report as soon as possible.

[Darkmoor]

...and i have one of the fastest home connections available in europe... how is that possible!?! i'll send a lag report as soon as possible.

Really? That would be about 100 to 1000 Mbps... shouldn't have much ploss troubles with that. Unless some router on the way is totally congested.

... and sometimes i connect from my brothers office and i have the same lag... he is working to get a phd in computer science on a research company so he has that huge connection and i still lag a lot.

[Caim E.X.]

Yes, this problem has been affecting me in BD's recently and it is PISSING ME OFF. The lag check thing now is bogus especially the SPIKE MED thing.

On another note, I notticed some people having S2C problems and I am having this problem as well. My usual lag is 120ms 0 - 0.1% S2C and C2S. But recently my S2C has risen to 2%- 3% and my C2S remains at 0.0% ALWAYS. There is something very weird about this and it must be fixed.
