Title: Server Delay
Post by: Boxboy on March 09, 2006, 11:38:59 AM: While I applaud HTC for wanting to support the new ISP folks, I can't help but wonder how long it will take????

The game is unplayable for me on this new ISP and so I while I can wait for a day or two anything beyond that with no fix will result in my having to cancel my account since I won't pay for what I can't use.

If they cannot correct the problems, then we move the server.

I don't think you ever mentioned where the server moved to, what is the company name?

Post by: Boxboy on March 09, 2006, 02:07:57 PM: OK I can understand that from your POV, Skuzzy, this may be a good thing,
ATT vs New guy, but as a customer ATT was giving me the best service to your product, I will be happy if the new ISP can get things up to snuff that would be a win win I guess.

I can take a week of checking I guess but I did want to know how much time we had since they already have had what 2 or 3 days.

Post by: CalDe1 on March 09, 2006, 10:30:10 PM: Took me forever to get on tonight, I'de hang while loading or not even get that far. If it remains like it is I too will have to cancel as it is unplayable, I think my son got so aggravated last night he did cancel his subscription.
Thanks

Post by: Docc on March 10, 2006, 01:33:37 AM: In addition to the warping and rubber bullets, my frame rates have been cut in half while they try to fix this.........from 45-85 to 10- 40

Post by: Saxman on March 10, 2006, 02:32:18 AM: I haven't noticed a difference. My framerate on this machine is ALWAYS around 20 (which will hopefully change once I get my new rig built and move off the stepdad's machine) and my pings are still around 16 on a good day, no worse than 30-ish.

I may blame other factors for my shoddy flying, but not my connection. :D

Resumes looking for the electromagnet that keeps sucking up every bullet that passes within d100 of his Corsair's engine.

Post by: DREDIOCK on March 10, 2006, 07:36:52 AM: Actually I've noticed a slight framerate improvement with the new server/isp.

I seem to remember reading somewhere that either Hitch or Skuzzy said the server/ISP has nothing to do with Framerates. But I as well as others seem to have noticed a difference.

I know for me with old server I had to avoid lrge furballs as my frames would drop to the low 20s. or else change out my view(shift+F keys) and even then the game would seem,,,slushy
Now they stay in the upper 20's low 30s when around large furballs.

Right offhand, I'd guess that it's argon.gamerslobby.net
