I cannot believe this! I've tried for over an hour to get a decent connection and all I get is LLLLLLLLLAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGG. 449 players creates some of it I would imagine but if the servers can't handle that many, why is it open to so many?
I don't understand alot about pings, latency, etc, etc...but when I can't change from a ground vehicle to an airplane in over two minutes, something is DEFINITELY WRONG HERE!
Just for grins I did a ping plotter to the main arena and the ping times were in the 20's and 30's until it gets down to the Dallas-Fort Worth area...then my god the ping times go into the two and three hundreds with 20 and 30% packet losses.....Is everyone in Dallas on the internet at the same time? HOLY CR*P!
Ping Plots to other sites are no problems but as soon as I ping to the main arena, I go through an additional 12 connects just to get to the main arena! Another HOLY CR*P! what is up with that!?
This is the SECOND WEEK IN A ROW THAT I'VE HAD UNACCEPTABLE LAG AT LEAST ONCE PER NIGHT! I can't play the damn game but for all the lag! This is fastly becoming unacceptable. I don't know what's happened but someone screwed up someplace. I used to connect with 18 hops from New York State to the HTC main arena......now 30 with 12 of them right in the DFW area......What's happening down there?
Sorry, done venting now......gonna go play Falcon 4.0 SP3
