    Weird server lag?

    I seem to be getting some really strange lag lately on |TG| basically the game "freezes" for about 1/4 of a second every 5-10 seconds. It is virtually impossible to aim or even walk forward without messing up.

    I've tried decreasing my video settings in case it was that but i still get it on low settings.

    Does anyone know what this could be? Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

    Was very laggy for me today also. I did notice there were two people on the server today that had pings of over 400. I wondered if it had anything to do with it.

    Right now same problem for 30 minutes. I quit playing tonight, for it wouldn't work anyways. Server restart didn't fix it. Every 2 seconds a ½ to ¼ seconds of freeze.

    Exactly what I was dealing with. I got O'niell via Admin Report but he said there was nothing he could do about it. Hopefully someone will figure it out or it will clear up. I need my nightly pew pew.

    It's probably the EA master server if all of you are being effected from different geographical areas.

    It must be because i was just playing on a =wck= server and i just got the same issue. Hope they resolve it... makes the game virtually unplayable.

    It's all of these folks with the really high pings. I don't join a server if my ping is over 90 and there are folks on the server with pings of 170+. There was an individual on the server today with a ping of 280 I believe. Causes ghosting and other issues.

    i will never have a ping <170. my ping is always about 200.

    so should i stay away from tg server now? believe me, sometimes its no fun for me too, because i have the "ghosting" issue with all players.
    and do you really think, that the hole server is lagging, because 2 guys have a ping over 170?

    I don't think its the TG server. Lasty night a lot of people were getting it so we switched to another server. Same thing. Might be EA master?

    Anecdotal evidence: When I logged on this morning, it was lag free for about an hour. Then lag started for several of us. I restarted my client and the lag went away for the next 30 mins or so.

    suggestion: restart your client when those lag spikes hit.
