Not that I dont like the game or dont wanna play, its that I cant play. I get major lag and I cant figure out how to fix it.
If someone give me more ways to try to fix this and if its my computer lagging can someone tell me how to fix that. But as of now I cant play the game anymore.
Save your tears, I know its hard, I will miss yall like yall will miss me. Loial I enjoyed pwning you round after round, and Warwulf I enjoyed getting 1 kill every 100 rounds on you, I would like to Say "STAY UP" and hopefully I get this problem resolved so I can make that comeback, HOLLA.

atmays, download WinMTR off http://winmtr.sourceforge.net/winmtr_bin.zip and set it going using the IP of one of the servers you have the trouble with. The program basically just pings and traceroute's the target IP until you stop it. Leave it going for a while and paste the results on here so we can have a look at it - Hopefully this should tell us if there is congestion or packet loss between you and the servers, and what part of the route is causing the problem. If everything seems ok, I can only assume it is your PC and possibly some firewall software on it.
After looking at your demo, you seem to be getting intermittent solid white bars whenever you experience lag, and a very low graph all other times, which I think means packets are being delayed heavily, but not lost (which i think would produce a black line). The WinMTR should show us if any routers on the way are heavily congested.
On the other hand, I once had the strange side effect on my own connection of my ISP's CoS measures that would hold back UDP traffic at busy times if it couldn't recognise the type of traffic. Pretty crazy policy really, given UDP is usually used for real-time delay-sensitive applications! If this is the case with you, there isn't much you can do other than see if their system learns about the game traffic, or send them a letter saying you're annoyed or something.
Good luck,
Dagless

ah, you need to use an actual game server, not dplogin, really. Looks like a few of those servers are running high CPU loads though, but still, if you could post a ping to a server you have experienced the lag on then it'd be more helpful, thanks. If you are unsure of the IP's, use the server browser to find the one you need.

Does any of the other games lag (if you play any other online)? You checked for spywares? That lag can´t be locked on just for PB.
