I know this isn't exactly scientific but we weren't having these reports of lag before. Of course, you're always going to have a few people complaining about lag and blaming their performance on it, but recently, probably as of the big update (Halloween or Mecha, not sure which) We've seen a humongous rise in the complaints about lag. Whether that's the cause of the server or client, I guess that remains to be seen, but we're having a lot of complaints and have done everything we can on our end to try and address it including moving down to 24 player servers which we did *NOT *want to do. The problem is still there. An hour or so ago I loaded up a completely vanilla server with no MM:SM, the same issue appears.
We get the gaps and spikes in the net_graph a lot. I get HUGE gaps when going in to a new area of a map a lot of the time. Here's a screenshot from just now when I tested. http://i.imgur.com/4V1TZ.jpg On Sat, Jan 5, 2013 at 11:22 AM, Michael Johansen <[email protected]> wrote: > > We've been having weird issues like this aswell, some times the game just > freezes for a split second and then continues.
