You guys were right.

Yea, you guys are right about the lag. I got into a huge firefight and I was lagging so bad, I could not even shoot straight. I guess I might need to add some stuff to my computer.

nice computer + good internet connection + (planetside + zerg) = LAG

JakeLogan · 2003-12-31, 09:59 PM

Yeah huge zergs denote alot of lag. thats why if I can I like to go off with a smaller group. or if I'm stuck with a zerg I'll stay away from the fight by sniping or getting my lightning and picking off the straglers.

Good lord, how do you play PS with AOL in the background? I remember back in the day trying to play starcraft with AOHell in the back laggin me up and booting me off every 20 minutes.

Because of PlanetSide's movement-prediction algorithm, anyone who says they don't lag is either very unobservant or not entirely honest.

Then again, lag is really an array of symptoms, so some people don't know what they're supposed to be looking for.

Agreed, there is connection lag and frames per second lag. Which one you have...dunno. I have DSL so I have frames lag.

if you have 4 gigs you wont lag. 8\

dscytherulez · 2004-01-01, 03:32 AM

Umm, i have very fast cable and a fast comp. I never notice any lag. Except the fact that ppl dont show up dead right away, but this occured after a patch and i dont think its lag, though i could be wrong i suppose...

With the graphics turned as low as they'll get, I frequently experience fps lag, even in non-zerg situations.

EVILoHOMER · 2004-01-01, 04:35 AM

i have an alienware amd64 pc and 1.5mb line and i get less lag and more fps than i do playing counter strike (which is shit)

EVILoHOMER · 2004-01-01, 04:36 AM
