Lag limits

[Fit of Rage]

I think they should be 250 ms, .2% s2c/c2s. Nothing higher.

[Displaced]

desperate and displaced would never play a game

how so? my ping is under 350, and i dont ploss. gj

id be able to play now with what FIT suggested.

Agreed, with !lag to top it all off.

[a2m+]

yo download, sika would be forced to turn off his lag cheats if those were the limits.

Hi!

I'd like very much to discuss those with you at this time, but I can't. Not that I don't want to, I just don't know what we are going to set them at right now. I will speaking with Ari and a couple others, we should have some news about it to you fellas in a day or two.

Thanks for the patience!

Thanks pusher,

a2m, both desp and disp lag yeah, but desp never has a ping above 180. And no ploss. Disp on the other hand always has over 250, but from 6th may and forward from there he'll have about what I have. (Personally I have 130 .0 .0 all the time)

I think a lag limit of 350 ms would be fair for everyone to play and enjoy TWL. Certainly we'll have people with that kind of lag and they will definately create unrest among other players. I'm not sure of what kind of s2c or c2s should be set as the limit.

ok maybe those 2 have some weird lag with out ploss and high lag but i hope they will change limits. everybody want it and it would be good for tw where everybody jump and suddendly disapear and spike to other side of wall.

haven't seen that bad lag in other zones

Do not make it any lower than 300. Nobody with a 56k would be able to play. A person with 56k most likely doesn't have a choice. I know I don't when I am at home. I can not get cable or dsl, it is not provided, and no I do not live in the middle of nowhere. My ping at home is around 180ms, in base games about double that. So I need around 400ms for a base game. If it were set to anything below 200 I would be in spec every other 15 seconds.

You know how the module in twd makes it so everytime you go to sub, it takes like 5 seconds, well Is it possible to do the same thing when people go to spec (minus lag related issues) ?

Referring to wb and jav:

If you spectate or are forced to spectate or are dced ... you should have to wait like a minute to come back into the game. This creates a "powerplay" type situation for the manup team. If the mandown team can win with that situation then more power to them. But any type of speccing or lagout or dc should be penalized in such a way rather than deaths I think. But both ways should work.

Ignore my previous post, I like this idea better, 1 minute sounds good enough that you will think twice about speccing intentionally, and not too much that it would kill you, although if you did it a few times it would definately have an effect on the game.

Unfortunately even 300ms is high enough to create some unfair situations in games.

Describe unfair. Do you mean that a shark doesn't rep a jav bomb that everyone sees but him and his terr dies as being unfair? Or a shark mines a terr and the terr dies because the shark was shot 5 times by a spider and didn't die?
Lag works both ways.

[Vitron]

Lag works both ways.

The fact that it works at all has a negative effect on the game's fun.

ld & lj

if someone specced they should grant a death. but then when someone lagsout (coz of spikes) it should not add a death. that would be unfair coz u don't controle spikes. (maybe u do but i don't)
