Ermmm you make no sense. FPS are how well your computer is peforming, and if you had 100 rather than 40, then it would be much faster. If you mean ping, then 100 isnt bad and the "REALLY" bad lag is in your head. Try playing in a server located closer to you.

No, he's right...the game just doesn't seem to function well 100% of the time when in ESFORCES servers. >:0\

There is a difference between Packet Loss and Frame rate loss. They *feel* the same, though. If you are getting 30 frames a second, but you have a 50% rate of packet loss, it'll look like 15 frames per second. Maybe not exactly, but it works out like that. The ESForces servers have some serious packet losing issues, so the performance feels like crap. Server needs an upgrade.

Zilea: posts dont count in off topic i dont think.

Also about the lag, what does 'cl_flush entity packet' mean? I get it all the time when i play, usually when the game lags really bad. (I normally have a ping of about 500)

it simply means you are lagging real bad....

for me I play in them even if I lag,with my crappy 11 fps and 300+ ping....but hey that's life,besides I scared all HK ESF players away by pwning them

well now the lag seems to be getting better, maybe it's because that they are just using their computers?? lol just a thought, and maybe cuz they are updating the 1.1 version or something that could use up a lot of rams... well, at least now im getting like 40-50 ping now :laff:

no i think because greg tweaked the machines a bit they worked a bit better,but I'm not really sure

but it's really hard to find a good server host so I can't blame him at all for the laggy performance I get in there....
