Halflife2.net Servers

People not playing on it didn't help much either.

"OHHH NO MY 150 PING IS MAKING THIS GAME COMPLETELY UNPLAYABLEEEE"

I still roll my eyes at that. Lets be hypocrites and leave due to 'high' ping, then expect others in the US to follow to a UK server. *sigh*
 
Ping unfortunately is a big issue for a lot of players. Anyhows my clans server is still going (see sig for IP) and all are welcome on it, though we'll probably have to cap the ping to 200 or so.

What? 150 is ridiculously high. I couldn't see playing with that except as maybe an engi or medic. Nothing I join has a latency over, like, 60.
 
Ping isn't such a big issue as in CS, which I find nice. I don't have to constantly study the net_graph every 2 minutes...
More than 200 is a bit too slow though. Especially with the ingame menus for engineer or spy.

**** off Pitzy.

I was lagging even with just 150 ping due to your crappy server being crappy and crappier.

You wang.

That's why 90% of the other people *including me* play on 150 ping and have no issues? I guess I have a super internet connection that 150 really means 100. I've never encountered an issue with "OMG IM SHOOTING HIM BUT MISSING SOMEHOW" until 200+ ping....
 
A bunch of us were on server 1 today for about an hour, and it crashed about 6 times. Sometimes with less than a minute between them, sometimes more.

I guess if it's always like that, it might explain why it's empty so often.
 
A ping above 100 makes it difficult to hit people with rockets and nades. Luckily I live about 30 ft away from the ADSL exchange so I get a ping of 5 on most UK servers. :O

Hight ping Vs Scouts = death in my experience. That's why a decent ping is required.
 
Sometimes one of my flatmates decides to start doing some downloading while I'm playing TF2, sending my ping from 25 up to 500 or so :angry:
However, I often don't notice until I'm trying to get through spawn point doors -- I still manage to kill people pretty well.
 
I've cancelled server 1 three days ago, seems noone has noticed. Shame really ;(

Long live Server 1. And the Gallery. And... Image tags in signatures. I would play on the HL2.net servers, but, you know, I'm in New Zealand.

I noticed, thought it was going to be a temporary thing. Stopped playing for a while after that.
