Karosu Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 i think it has to do quite a bit with where the person is located, if i live on the west coast of america, someone in germany isn't going to make the greatest host for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BloodKitten Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 (edited) im sorry but i dont control the matchmaking system. you can play privately with your rich friends on your pc's that run the game at 5000 FPS, as for the common gamer, not everyone can run the game smoothly and not everyone feel like sitting with tumb up the butt looking for a host/waiting on other players and would rather to just start playing and let people join mid mission. so unless you plan on giving everyone a good pc, think befor you ask silly stuff. if you talk about connection on the other hand it seem like its random, have a friend i sometime play perfectly fine with her, and sometime, i lag like hell, networking issues maybe.

naskapal Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 if you have closed port, it will makes you lag, even if the hoster is not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flaming_Snake Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 I'll host because I don't feel like dealing with ~1s of latency thanks. If you have an issue, then leave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And to add to that, most free-to-play players have weak rigs and slow connections. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheSuperTaco Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 Players can choose their closest servers. they can, but one time a brazilian guy used voice chat, and a person from japan(he said in in-game chat) was hosting the mission. we need to force a ping limit or something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naked Posted April 14, 2013 Author Share Posted April 14, 2013 I'll host because I don't feel like dealing with ~1s of latency thanks. If you have an issue, then leave. Quite a selfish statement seeing as (in accordance to my topic) when you're lagging and you host, up to 3 other people will feel the pain of lag while you don't.

Last game I've played that actually implemented a ping limit, players would still join because they would spike immensely crazy. From the lowest milliseconds to highest in a minute or two. But I got a better idea. A pop-up message. Would ask you which server is closest to you, when you first start the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I am supposed to suffer and not enjoy the game, just so other people can? Yeah, no thanks. My computer is powerful enough to never drop below 60FPS at max settings, so any issues coming from my end, is just latency. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoundedPlanet88 Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 Snake, double post. Op, did you ever consider checking to make sure that you yourself are not part of the "problem"? Not everyone has great connection, and sometimes even people with good connection have bad connection to each other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naked Posted April 14, 2013 Author Share Posted April 14, 2013 (edited) Snake, double post. Op, did you ever consider checking to make sure that you yourself are not part of the "problem"? Not everyone has great connection, and sometimes even people with good connection have bad connection to each other. I always make sure to ask the remaining members of the party if they are lagging as well, and I always check my ping on a regular basis. So I am supposed to suffer and not enjoy the game, just so other people can? Yeah, no thanks. My computer is powerful enough to never drop below 60FPS at max settings, so any issues coming from my end, is just latency. That's the thing, it's not about FPS. It's about connection issues. This was targeted towards people with horrible latency hosting missions because it creates lag for the other party members. Says the guy with horrible hosting abilities XD What?

Cinderain Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 The first best part is, they don't know if they lag. The second best part is, whether they have good or bad internet, if you're far away from them, you'll lag because Peer 2 Peer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Acyl Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 Even region filtering isn't a guarantee you'll have a good connection between the host and other players. For example, the Oceanic region filter is used by both Asians and Australians - but Internet connectivity between the two is pretty bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
