LAG

[Laowai]

Well... as you all know, im in China - so my ping is anywhere between 380 on the low end (which is on a rare good day) and 620 on the high end... It usually averages between 450-480...

That being said, the last few days have been the worst ive had for a long time, almost constant red lag sometimes, so much so that when i have yellow lag im happy! at least i can dock!
I did discover a funny glitch from this though - i was trying to buy some CD missiles in a base i was in, after i had bought them and got the "loaded into cargo hold" message.. nothing happened,, no missiles were added and the "buy" slider wouldn't come back, i ended up trying 3 or 4 times by logging out but still nothing, the lag was so bad that nothing was happening.
Anyway, logged in the next day, only had yellow lag... and there i have about 280 CD missiles out of a possible 70... haha weird?
Also took some funny screen shots of my ships trying to dock when the docks doors were closed - i dunno what happened there, but i guess after i hit "Dock" it lagged so bad that the doors never opened or they closed again... there is my ship in the load screen, banging against the door......:)

I got a screen of an NPC 20,000k away today. Yep, that's no less than TWO MILLION METERS away. Of course, it had to happen during a mission, I think I got disconnected completely... game crashed when I tried to exit, and I had to pull power. I'm guessing its on my end, but due to the crazy lag reports today maybe not...

I keep crashing, Battleship Altenburg, Dresden System. my player file saves there when i do crashed, but if im docking and it crashed i end up inside the battleship... literaly...but i can thruster out without much problems. I get occaisonal blinking yellow then to red then i crash, i come back and it does it again about 1 hour later...and im U S A, so i have no idea what my normal ping is and idk how to check. it really only effects docking and Fighting with players or npcs, sometimes i get lag and im not shooting at the npc im shooting at that station behind the npc...

My ping is usually around 380 on some really bad days it's 500+.
All the way from downunder... Is there any way to get a faster ping ? Or is that just down to the time
it takes due to the distance...

Omg. I have got to see that. The maximum I've gone is about 300k away from the NPC I was in mission against.

My ping's usually 300+-.

Anything I say is not intended as offensive, and to try and deliberately misinterpret it as such would be an attempt at trolling via misrepresentation.

It's not a conspiracy, it's localised bias. They're not intelligent enough to form a conspiracy.

Why does everyone complains about pings? I'm happy with my "high" ping of around 30:laugh:. Well, if there wouldn't be such times when it goes up to 1000+ _--_. (really, just checked and had 1842) And that is not from server, it is from me, and i don't know what is causing this.....

So, i lag from time to time a bit^^ and afterwards i'm sometimes dead-.-

In a brilliant tactical movement, i charged backwards.

[Dantrithor]

I live in spain, and i have an awful lag. Yes, its horrible, i cant live with it in big battles.

My ping is 72ms average.

My fps is 7.2 average in group battles.

Isnt it cool?

PD: Oh, i forgot to say i meant "fps lag"?

I get the same issue every so once in a while, but lately I have noticed a lot more yellow and reds, with docking issues. I am in Mexico, and my ping is around 225 on average. But besides the lag issue, I love discovery and wish you all the best and want to say thanks for making a game i truly love into something to enjoy again.

Hehehe

I get ping from 120-700, but rarely any lag. I dunno why.

My framerates are ALWAYS a rock-steady 60, except when I first join the server for about 2-5 minutes it's stuck at 2-5FPS. I have no clue why.

Just go play the game and have fun dammit.

all in all the conclusion is that disco doesn't need antagonist factions, it doesn't need phantoms, it doesn't need nomads, it doesn't need coalition and it doesn't need many other things, no AIs, the game is hijacked by morons to confuse the game with their dickwaving generic competition games mixed up with troll-of-the-day.
