senden 0 Posted August 8, 2004 ROFL thats the first time ive heard that one. So because i get cheaper internet i should be blamed for making people lag? thats pathetic. I have a bf:v clan and i help contribute for the server as i would with any other clan. I cant afford Å80.00 a month though for a server so i wil use other peoples servers, if they dont like that, they can go suck my scrotem. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RN Malboeuf 12 Posted August 9, 2004 you cant compare the line usages of BF (which is lame) to OFP wich uses 10 times the usages per player like i said 30-150 kb per client 5k = on average 4.3 kb so the 56ker is loosing 25-145 kbs of information and plus the fact that 4.3 kbs is shared up and down where cable and DSl have a banwith equal to thier upload and download so the 56k can out put only 2 kb to the server were all our broadban users are in the 20-30 kbs just do the math Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
russin 0 Posted August 9, 2004 it's a matter of peoples choise we pay for our server and most times 56kers won't last a 3 hour CTI so that being said BOOT there are to many quiters never mind a 56ker lagged out running in spot haha and all infornation sent to him isn't recieved witch means he laggs the server think about it especilly if his ping gets up in the 400-500 hundreds... never mind his FPS lol our server no laggers allowed Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
russin 0 Posted August 9, 2004 if i play a DM or somthing id let a 56k play np as it is a small game and not a 3 hour long CTI mabe consider movin to a area that is more advanced lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KDog35 0 Posted August 9, 2004 I'm on 56k and usually get to play a MP game about 1 time out of 10. You just have to get lucky and hope the admini is in a good mood that night. People who pay for the servers have a right to choose who plays. I just wish there was a server out there where 56kers are always welcome. But that ain't gonna happen. Now, I'm just waiting for OFP2, by Christmas, I will have a new AMD 64 w/1024 ddr ram, a fresh new high speed connection, re-join my buds in SWAF and kick all your azzez. Pull a nice left hook across your head and you'll end up like Danzig. just kidin'. Kdog~ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
russin 0 Posted August 9, 2004 @k-dog we waitn fer ya what is your average ping to a server with a 56k ? if under 300 you should be ok in a CTF game Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KDog35 0 Posted August 9, 2004 russian, what's your server name? Of course now, I can't kick shit, but I'd love to play average ping is 180-270, it can sometimes get in the 315-320. I live in Los Angeles, CA Kdog~ ps: and to change the topic just a bit, I will argue that the performance of your computer and connection is a big part of your skill, especially in close combat DM matches. I've had 2.5 years of practice trying to "outdraw" all you big boy big connection guys and got stomped everytime. Ain't happening in OFP2! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KDog35 0 Posted August 9, 2004 Cool! thanks for the invite. I'll be sure to drop your name when I connect and hopefully you have the above average respect from your fellow comrade admini to grant me the grace that I'll need to play a game or two. See ya then, Kdog~ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RN Malboeuf 12 Posted August 10, 2004 actually you should get really good ping to our server, its located down town LA Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KDog35 0 Posted August 12, 2004 In Texas I always come in below 200 ping. I look forward to some games. Kdog~ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hitman 10 Posted August 12, 2004 Kdog, your also always welcome to DK server and you know that. Im not usually there though when you come in cos Im sleeping at that time. And to that offtopic comment you made about the performance and connection: Its not true. I think Im running the worst computer in the OFP community (1.4g, 512ddr and Gf2 64mb ) and Im doing allright. Connection doesnt have anything to do with it expect if a player lags alot, he kills every "big boy" when the "big boy" kills him. Usually the cocky CQB players get pissed off at that and kick you out, simple as that. So no matter if you have a 1mb line or a 10mb line. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RN Malboeuf 12 Posted August 12, 2004 1.4g, 512ddr and Gf2 64mb  ) and Im doing allright. that system is is just above average for OFP, almost any 600 mhz up with over 512 is fine OFP uses over 300 megs in game and if you dont have it, it a pain in the ass Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KDog35 0 Posted August 14, 2004 Hitman, hope we can play soon. The connection does play a part in your skill, it's not all of it but logically it's some. In real war, your eyesight, hearing, hand/eye cordination, and response is what CAN keep you alive ..then comes the experience. That's why gamers always needs to up-grade, for better game play. If my "mouse response" drags while I'm trying to aim at the enemy and He on the other end has DSL, and faster processor/video card, he will kill me first. I've played many games where I played it safe just to stay alive because I damn well know if I try to take someone on in a firefight, I would loose. That's how 56kers have to think. Just look at it this way, ..I've just drank and 12 pack of beer and your sober. Now we are going to fight, who do your think's gonna win?? DSL vs 56k Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gadger 0 Posted August 14, 2004 If your on 56k and lagging I'm willing to bet it's gonna be a draw Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
