Trace complete. (Near Flint, MI, USA)

Just for kicks.

FWIW, I have played on EU servers, and (while I haven't noted the # for lag) haven't had any problems playing.

We dont have enough ppl to split up the servers.

My ping shoots up to 50-70 and i simply cannot fly.

Thank you for killing my off prime time PU games.

NONE of the other servers have had this problem.

I've played for 3 years at 500 lag (33.6kbps), 2 years at 300 lag (114kbps CDMA) and the last year or so at 180 lag (ADSL). The euro servers give me 120/150 lag. Either way, I get a smoother experience than the US servers.

If you can't handle 70 lag, you seriously have problems.

Also, when US people have better experience on the EU servers than the Planet servers, it is time to acknowledge that Zapper/pkk/Grimm did some good work.

Now, time to STFU and Play © Thalgor.

I am not talking about Lag:(###) [always at 115-125 no matter what server]

I'm talking about Ping:(#.##) [normally 10.0 - 3.5 ON EU 12.0 - 60.0]

My high lag doesn't make my screen jump that often even with my screen jumping my Lag:(###) was at normal 115

No, that would actually serve a purpose! He has been using the same connection for three years. How dare you tell him how to find the root of the problem.

you consider a ping of 50-70 some noteworhy lag? what kind of man are you?

and WFT are you thinking, how does our pings go when we play on US servers? and how many pilots have been complaining on those damned US servers that keep tham lagging too much to play.
