Re: What is lag/ping?

I didn't say I lag with a 167-200. I was try to prove that ping is related to lag. You said it wasn't. If you have 0 ping. You still could have lag because of other people using the internet in the sometime. But ping and lag is related. That is what I was trying to prove.

Re: What is lag/ping?

If you have 0 ping and other player is warpin or so, then it's the other player the one who has lag...
Well... that's what I think

Re: What is lag/ping?

The point being made here is correct, if you restrict yourself to the exact definition of the term.
People do misuse the words trying to mean a different thing.
The term "lag" here only refers to the latency between the server and the client. Hence higher ping obviously means a high amount of lag (due to increased milliseconds)


However if your using this as justification that you don't teleport every-where all the time cause of your relatively "low" ping. That's totally wrong.
Even with a low ping if you have a high rate of packet loss, which would lead to the server skiping those packets which it didn't receive and teleport you to your next known location, where it received packets from you. Out here again increased ping means there is more distance for the packet to travel, and increased chances of "data loss" . But if your net is stable the likely hood of packet loss is very low.
Warp is also very apparent when someone's ping fluctuates.

Point agreed on- Higher Ping=More latency.
Two things nebolas

.... and bad net connection doesn't give you high ping 90% of the time.

Re: What is lag/ping?

This came up cuz I said "Nebula,you warp" when I was versing him, so, he went and made this topic. :lol:

Thanx Vader, that is the perfect explanation, hope you understand it this time at least nebolas.

Re: What is lag/ping?

Will people read my post more carefully?
Please read my posts before posting something that I just said.

He said I warped and I told him you too.
The only think I am proving is lag is related to ping. Nothing else...
Please read my posts again...

And yes vader (Even though I said that on my posts)

Re: What is lag/ping?

Btw, anyone have any solutions for recovering a desperate net xD?
p.s. Kinda on the verge of stopping playing halo ce and others online games lol
I was younger then, I wasn’t afraid of anything, I didn’t think about dying for a second. I thought I was invincible. Then I met some girl. I wanted to live, I started to think like that; for the first time I was afraid of death. I had never felt like that before.

Fact is genius's can take all the hard work of the common folk and turn the whole entire thing around, so that it's like it was all for nothing. As one of those with talent, let me apologize. I know it's unfair but... TOUGH SHIT, SUCKER'S!!

Humans believe their lives and ants lives are weighted differently. This is profound arrogance.

Nothing worse than being strong, but not strong enough.

1. Play no one or not many people are using the internet.
2. Clean your computer. There are many programs that will help you do so.
3. Don't run something during the time you play.

Re: What is lag/ping?

To make Vader's explanation short

High ping doesn't always means that you warp. I rarely warp even on 800 ping.
Its probably because my packet loss is very low.
Just because you got low ping doesn't mean you won't warp.
Bad channel utilization may mean more packet losses.

We wouldn't have to if you re-read your post and corrected the mistakes before you post them.
