Try playing online for a few minutes on my old dead clan server "[FnG] Euro Server Germany" (it's on the TDM list). There are some easy bots to kill to pass the time. Watch your F6 ping.

If it felt a lot smoother and less jerky than here, then your PC is OK and you just have the same connection quality that most of us get here. So your "lag" is due to LDG's host (OVH) and nothing can be done.

Thanx, I'll try it tonight... do you have an IP address... I know how to open it now

Isn't Game Booster easier? I heard it's really good

Went to your server and it was running smooth, the bots were so easy I got bored some minutes after.... seems the problem is the LDG server. For example in Highlander yesterday, I came into the room next to the center courtyard and there were 3 opponents in the room. I had my shotgun ready, so set the iron sights and killed the first one, dodged to make the second shot and the screen blocked (or jumped) then it unblocked, and immediately then Horrorklown shot me down and I was frozen. This "lag" or block is a matter of ms, but enough to disorient and put you in disadvantage.

The other one I get often is a delay, but that one in more constant in the sense that it goes longer through the map. In a sniper map I notice it quite easy cause I'm having a player on my sight, if the player is moving, instead of tracking him, I aim to where he is moving and wait for him to arrive to my aim point. In that moment I shoot, when I don't have the delay I hit the shot, but when I have it I see the shot hit behind. The time I click to the time the shot goes is delayed. When I try to reload, takes more time, when I try to set iron sights is delayed. And of course when I'm shooting in combat tracing an opponent I'm not able to hit any shot. The funny thing is that it does not last all the game, sometime in the middle it gets better, and then maybe the delay comes back. Is incredible the difference it makes in my game: normally in Lagheaven I have the delay, yesterday I did not have it, made 1 rampage, 2 killing sprees, same weapons, same tactics.

Sorry, no video, no rampage

Yes, this new LDG server has given most of us lower pings but we still get packet loss coming and going in waves, particularly during peak hours. You can see everyone's P/L on the F1 screen.

I think it's the general network in & out of the host, OVH, and we just have to live with it because it is the same for everybody.

From economical point of view ... other providers offer worse HW at 2x higher prices (for which the donations were not sufficient anyway).

Yes, we should be content with what we have. Given the time we spend here, donators and non-donators are getting good value for money

For non-donators to get 'value for money', they need to involve money in the process somewhere

Clearly a joke.
