I have no problem blaming the first game on GB. We would have lost the game, no matter what the lag could have been.spideycw wrote:QUOTE (spideycw @ Feb 5 2007, 06:02 PM) p.s. you blaming your loss on lag just smacks of bad sportsmanship to me
QUOTE Lag, you say? Try freezing for ten seconds when you hit the launch button to defend your tech against a bomb run on an EU server, just simply trying to change ships. That's the kind of lag I get on those crap EU servers.[/quote]Not much of a difference there. You cannot launch, we cannot hit anything and get podded.
QUOTE So, let's rematch on another server you've won on, and haven't blamed your defeats on lag?[/quote]
Last time we played against you (first weekend of january), we beat you on the Planet servers. But, ask a couple of other european players, in the last 2-3 weeks, planet servers were horrible: You aim at a ship and just as you begin shooting, it jumps out of your gun aim, you reaim and you might get a few hits, but it jumps again. Yes, it is plenty of fun to play that way. We have played many games on planet, won many, lost many. There are only few games, where the lag played a deciding role and this was one of it. (Another one was against XT, where the damage of MF skycaps lagged off the defending light ints.)
Maybe when not all of the squad matches are played on the US servers anymore, you will notice, that some of the losses are really lag based and you are not happy with it either. Feel free to complain then, as the EU players really understand the problem (6.5 years of US servers only).
