Connection Issues

[retr0n]

Hmm ok, in the last 2 or 3 weeks my connection has got real bad. I haven't changed
ISP, no hardware, no new apps installed. If I stand still my ping is 50-70 but as
soon as i'm moving around and others are too my ping goes to 300+ and it happends
often that people/mobs/vehicles just dissapere for 2 seconds and I cant see
anybody, then everybody reappears in new locations and I take like 300 dmg at
once.

I never used to get this, and when I do a ping on the servers, I have no loss in
the connection, all seems fine. I've tried to reinstall but it didnt help, I tried playing
without the router (internet directly into my pc) didn't make any difference.
I sent an mail to my ISP asking if any changes were made and they calim they
havent touched anything =/ I really don't know what to do, but right now the
game is almost unplayable =/.


I remember a similar thing going on back in the laggy saturn days, but everybody
else had the same problems back then so I knew it wasnt on my side, but now
it seems like i'm the only one getting this so it's up to me =/.

Has anybody else experienced this and how did you solve it?

Thanks

The same thing happens to me.I could be way off base here, However, since the last server down time a few days ago, the spawn rate has gone through the roof. I really believe that is why the frame rate is so crappy. Maybe our PCs are just having a hard time with all the extra spawns. :eek: :D
