Flash

[Cpt. Kirk]

Is there anything we can do to fix the lag spikes in Flash? About every 20 seconds there's a spike and it is frustrating. Damn_Dummie has checked the other DoD:S servers and he said only Flash was doing it. That and 90% of the time HL stats doesn't work. It is very frustrating to run into a building only to have a lag spike toss you 10 feet back out the door and then get killed. Also not pleasant to have a sniper magically appear and kill you. And if we're gonna have any chance of meeting slayr357's call out, something needs to be done, because half the pub's that join leave almost immediately because of the terrible lag.

P.S. If someone suggests that I donate more money one more time as a solution, SO HELP ME GOD I WILL FIND MY BAN HAMMER.

I have to agree,I have a 300 ping and it gets to like a 1000 ping when that happens....

 

[sky-high]

yeah this is a big problem

Well, since I fear the fabled Hammer of Ban, I got absolutely nothing to help with the lag. As for the stats, they are out on all servers, not just Flash. Probably still getting out all of the kinks.

maybe you should donate more cash kirk... you suck

Also, ammo piles can cause server lag. Ammo boxes are movable objects. Therefore, the server has to account for them possibly moving every frame. Imagine trying to draw a Family Guy episode in real time. I don't even think ammo piles are necessary if people pay attention to where their rocket and MGs are. You can dump your ammo there, and then it will actually get used.

PS
I here donating money works too... Kind of like offering a sacrifice to the Lag Gods.

*shakes head*
Baumer and noxx, you bring this on yourselves.
*rolls up sleeves and grasps the ban hammer with both hands*
YOU! ARE! BANNED!
*brings it down on both of them; they are no more*
*falls over from the earth shaking*

P.S. I will keep that ammo pile in mind though, that's a good thought. But that is still not what is causing all the lag spikes. Anyone else have any suggestions that won't make me do the above again?

donate less money? maybe it works in reverse.
