sdy284 Posted April 9, 2007 Posted April 9, 2007 what kind of ping are you getting silverfox? noticing any lag? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silverfox Posted April 9, 2007 Posted April 9, 2007 my ping was pretty much the same as everyone elses. about 200 when i kept checking. slowed a little as ppl joined though. occasional lag, but it was still good fun. I'm happy with my progress after a mere 6 hours! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm happy with my progress after a mere 6 hours! well you definately bring the pings up then... as they're usually ~80 - 120 ish but it was fun killing you on the churches map I've never seen 8 guys in the OCC server before... that was a pretty fun time Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silverfox Posted April 9, 2007 Posted April 9, 2007 what are the pings like when I am gone? yesterday, lag wasn't too bad ... but i don't wanna ruin everyone's game by being the one to lag the server. I was getting 150 yesterday see. edit: as i am a CSS n00b, what can be done to get a better ping? I can only assume a better server? which prolly costs money...right?

Silverfox Posted April 9, 2007 Posted April 9, 2007 yeah i have a fairly decent ping otherwise. tested on a few google servers stateside with average of 30ms. i dread to think how much renting a server would cost Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silverfox Posted April 9, 2007 Posted April 9, 2007 i'll just be a lag-o-saurus for now as i said though: it seemed okay to me last night. deffo got worse with more people in the game edit: i think it must have been so popular as it meant you guys could shoot the Englishman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kash Posted April 9, 2007 Posted April 9, 2007 I've never seen 8 guys in the OCC server before... that was a pretty fun time That was awesome. I have a 30/5 connection that could do well to bring pings down, but the problem is that I don't have a decent spare PC lying around to host the game on Let's see what parts I have lying around. An Athlon64 3200 (skt 939), a stick of 512MB RAM, bunch of hard drives, couple of cases...yea, that's about it. Would need a PSU, vid card, and mobo to get something up and running.

Would need a PSU and mobo to get something up and running. i just host mine on my laptop (1.8ghz Core Duo & 1gb ram) even with 8 guys playing...
