Ping

[Pegasus™]

correct me if I am wrong..Is the limit of the player's ping 400?? also Do we do anything to any player is skipping like a MJ or Houdini all the time??

[*Kiba*]

i think a 400 ping and up is not allowed

This has been a very recent topic of discussion...I thought a limit of 350 but actually it is 500 or a player who goes from 180-999 and back, unsteady ping. The choppy or skipping players are the worse, those are the ones I will give warn too. I have seen high pingers play smooth and low ping with antique vid card hop like bugs bunny. The leaders are trying to come up with a policy as we speak.

The best thing to do in a situation where you see someone with high ping is warn them. Whatever you do, do NOT kick them without warning. As Funkbut said, I believe the limit is 500, but you obviously have to use a little bit of judgment with that as well. If you're unsure, take a short video.

Edit: ima found the topic so yes like Chica and Funky said 500 is the limit /

Ping limit is 500 but please use your discretion as to when a warn or consecutive kick is needed... 1) If the player is really lagging and skipping in the map. 2) If the ping is highly unstable going from say 200 to 400 back to 150 and so on... 3) If the ping is unnaturally high like say 800 - 900 and is affecting the server...

 

Please try and explain to the person first which I am sure would be difficult as most of the players with such high pings are from regions where they dont speak english...

OK people here is what you should do, if the ping is over 350, SPEC them and see if they are skipping frames (Lag skipping) when they play. This is an obvious way to tell how bad they are lagging. I have seen people with a 430 ping who don't seem to lag at all when I spec them and don't kick them. If it is over 500 they usually are skipping frames.

Yes I am going to kick you....right in your....well I wont kick you out of game...but it might hurt a lil

I lend more to Dan's thinking, skipping frames and choppy..you are in trouble...I always try to get the players attention and see if they are downloading in the background, if you get a response 1 out of 3 are ....

Not sure why ping is such a hot topic recently lol. I'm glad that we're active about discussing and figuring out the rules though =]
