Yea i luv a good moan, Ok as it says the ping spikes on Saturn are really bad, i dont know if its a DOS or just shitty Internet as a whole. What i do know is its almost unplayable, hunting is no fun when u get caught in a spike, frozen like a rabbit in the headlights of a car, its a waste of time therfor its a waste of money Plz Plz Plz look into this problem KK.

comments and horrer storys welcome maybe they will hear us u never know.

I play the game on good old 56k, and dont seem to get many lag spikes... unless my isp is playing up. Maybe its just a saturn problem then, as pluto seems fine :)

56k'er here as well.

Very rarely, if at all, get lag spikes and I play a fair 'ol bit (Much more than a lot of people screech about, might I add :rolleyes:).

Infact, ive been known to get lower pings than people on broadband, Ive found that people living in the states tend to suffer from lag more than us brits.

Most of my playing is done on Saturn (Egos seem less rampant thee, as does the whole "I pwn j00" attitude...although there are quite a few notable exceptions. Besides, it's much, MUCH easier to find a Researcher/Constructor/Whatever than it is on Pluto) and, as I said, I very rarely get lag spikes....if any.
