Re: Lag
I'm thinking if Apo is putting the new server in the same datacenter as vanilla then this will clear up our lag problems.

Re: Lag
I haven't posted since my experiences may be local and not indicative of a server side problem. I had trouble staying connected for more than 20 minutes throughout the weekend. While I have a ping of 14-20 (I live just a 20 miles from the datacenter) I was experiencing framerate lag on some maps, warping at times AND disconnects. Framerate lag is clearly due to my inferior machine unable to keep up with the calculations and graphics For the warping and disconnects I can't attribute those without more evidence. I have a suspiscion they are both server side (since I rarely experience such bad connection problems on bf2 vanilla), but my router can be flaky at times and I was playing a great deal this last weekend.
Hopefully with the server relocation I can isolate if my problems are specific to me and perhaps replace my router and/or go down other paths.|TG-12th| SHINER

Re: Lag
Just a note, if you are having bad framerate issues with your PC, it can choke your computer to the point you get warping. Warping can only be isolated as sever problems if you are still having a high and consistent frame rate while it happens.

Re: Lag
Lag is completely gone with the new server. Props to apo. I do lock up a lot though, particularly at the start of a round.

Re: Lag
Agreed, so far, not a touch of lag on that new server. Great games tonight!

Re: Lag
im also afraid this is probley turning alot of new people away.. hopefully this is just a short term issue and will be resolved quickly and the server can get back to pumping again.

Re: Lag
Wow, this is becoming really bad. It just crashed again, for what the 4th time tonight. Well one of those times was because they had to restart the server because new squads could not be formed. I know it's their first release and all but come on, you can't even play. First it was the warping/rubber banding and now it's the server crashes every 5 minutes.

Re: Lag
I dont know if its an animation thing, something on my end, or has to do with the mod itself, but for the first time I have been noticing a couple of strange occurances that seem to have to do with lag. First is that I have been dying after diving for cover an increased amount even last night on the new server. The other is that I have been killed by guys not even looking at me. Twice the opposing player has killed me with his back to me. I've never had this problem with Vanilla even when I was using 1 gb of ram and my ping was higher.

Re: Lag
Ya that was really rough for a while there jmaker. Now for whatever reason the server has not crashed once since about 10EDT or so. Its 5:30AM EDT and the server is still going. Weird.
I imagine we will see crashes semi often. That 1.3 patch really screwed up the servers...almost every vanilla 64 player server crashes every couple hours. I imagine POE2 uses the same server resources so it can't change that behavior. Hopefully this got addressed in the 1.4 patch.(if it ever comes out) I always kinda wondered how our unranked vanilla server avoided this behavior though.|TG-12th|mantis

Re: Lag
yea, it gets a little frustrating to get the disconnects or ctd's. i was flying choppers several times and crashed to menu. i tried commanding as well and got the crash. all i could do was yell S#@$$@$ at the screen. Lol
