Title: LAG
Post by: ya old fraggle on October 26, 2003, 06:04:00 pm
I\'m currently shut out of the game because of lag, and i understand that this is a beta and whot not but i would really like to be able to play this game on weekends as well as through the week but as soon as more than 15 ppl logg on then i\'m frozen to the spot and after a while my client crashes. surely there is some thing that can be done.

there is nothing A good helping of RAM wont fix. I had 256 and I lagged like crazy. Now that I added 512 more the game goes smooth like a knife through butter:).

i dont think it\'s ram thats the problem cose both my machines have 512mb ram P4 2+ghz and my weekend machine has a GeForce 3 ti and my week machine has a GeForce 4 ti, but both runn on dial up

but through the week its fine, and i\'m only in game from 5:30pm till 9 or 10pm. and last night it was fine till about 1:30am when it got progressively laggy as more ppl logged in.

I\'m at a lose end.

Yes well your lag could be because of the additional data because of more players. PS\'s game engine is well kinda not polished enough methinks. I don\'t think it can be helped much.
