Getting EXTREME lag 2000+ ping in all 3 vs 3 games.

By on May 2, 2009 3:14:24 AM from Demigod Forums Demigod Forums

Is this a result of my internet connection, or is there something else I'm missing. I followed The_Monks guide on setting up a network for Demigod, but I still get these problems. I am wondering if it could be the "cascading nat" scenario because I have a DSL router modem.... which is then hooked up into a wireless router. Could this maybe be the case? Or just my internet connection?

is that normally sufficient for this game? I don't get lag in most other games, if rarely. Aslong as I find a good server i'm perfectly lag free, although that maybe because those are server/client games.

Just to let you guys know, 2 vs 2 games work well enough. 3 vs 3 though... like topic title says, I get 2000+ping almost every game. It fluctuates and jumps all over the place. I am not downloading anything while I play, I also shut off firewalls, so forth, as well as running what The_Monk guides suggests doing. Any ideas what could be the problem?

According to speedtest my internet speed is...

Quoting Dead Ghost,
I don't think the speed of your connection is to blame. I have the same problem as you with spikes, and my internet connection is better than yours:                                                               



 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Please note that it's the same server as you tested, but i'm from Europe, ~5650 miles away. And the spikes i get are with european players, not US players!

 

 

I think your spiking problem would be fix with the new proxies, I'm not sure about mine though. It's a constant 2000+ lag... sometimes it fluctuates, but usually it's constant.

This really sucks....

 

I just played a 3V3 without any lag so i thought my problems were over.... so i start up a new game and BAM

 

...

 

Back at a constant fluctuation of 300-2000 ping. It seems so random.. i really hope they can find the problem here.. The game that went ok before sorta proves its not all me. Im not downloading or doing anything, but still one game works fine and the next lags like crazy
