Morgax Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 (edited) Every single time i try to search for mission this sign welcomes me. My ping limit is 250 which already can be pretty laggy. Is the european playerbase that small or it's just to cut the costs? Edited July 31, 2013 by Morgax Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neruell Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 It all depends on numerous factors. Daytime when you play, your internet connection, the other people internet connection and also there may be issues with the servers themselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zareek Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 I set mine to 150, but Im STRONGLY considering going down to 100 again. It sometimes pisses me off that 9/10 games that I actually do manage to join, are laggy because the host has a crappy pc. I know the hosts arent to blame, its not their fault. I just WISH that we could get a solution to these problems soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chronodroid Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 Can't tell.. but I also play on EU, and get connected to hosts who never in my eyes reach 200 limit I use. Russians (Starchat), Near-Easts and some on their 56k Modem playing. Also, ping is not equal to connection-strenght. Ping may be great, but a weak connection still. Rather change the ping maximum to something like "stable hosts only", and let WF once check my system to determine how "stable" I can host.

Valentine_Grim Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 (edited) There are some irrational factors as well. There are four peeps I play with and our connection leaves logic aside at times. There is a girl who plays from a laptop via separated cable and a guy currently sitting in Vietnam - in these cases lag is understandable, but there are two more locals with equally good machines and fast connection (we share the same provider), but one of them gets cut out now and then, while the other can host and I see no difference from playing solo. At the same time there are mighty fine chances to connect to a US or European host and hardly see any lag... Being in the western part of Russia that is. I feel a bit torn between Europe and Asia regions in my network settings - I'm practically in the middle.

MECT_HET Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 Test it again beyond the Hungary. Try London or Berlin for example. And you will see. There already was an "Eastern Europe" option in connection setting. Why do the removed it... dunno. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
