Post by: Dave on September 07, 2011, 03:25:05 AM
This is a thread for posting any technical problems you came across playing on any of our servers. Some examples are:

If you feel a new or old problem deserves extra attention, don't hesitate to create a new thread.

Thanks for your feedback!

I found something that may or may not be related to yalls server. Several times while playing I have chosen my side and then got taken to a screen where I could see the players and the map but couldn't go to the character select screen at all. Only solution to this that I have found tha works is to force a shutdown of the game. None of the buttoms would work at all, but when I come back everything is fine.
  I ahven't really seen this on any other servers seeing as I play here 90% of the time, so not sure if it is limited to here or if it is a known glitch.

Type "spectate" in the console, that should fix it. That's a common bug that happens.

Myself and a few of my friends have been noticing times of increased ping (usually 30 or 40 higher then our normal ping). I'll try to get a time and a traceroute next time it happens.

Was the lag noticeable when playing?

For my friend it was a very big problem as he mains sniper. Last night he didn't even bother playing due to his ping being 150.

Do you know if anyone else was having this issue?

Not yet, when I notice the problem again I will ask others on the server if there ping is higher then normal.

I only have high ping when I first connect, then after it's done loading and syncing, it stays normal.

Re: High Pings

This week, my ping has tripled.  Went from 32 to 96, steady.

No idea why, but really annoying.

I have checked in on Steam chat with some other Victoria regulars, we all have 84-112 on various providers.  Jean-Luc lives 10 minutes from me and we both are rocking 94 and 96 pings.  I called my ISP and asked if anything was going on in the greater victoria area, they said no and no scheduled maintenance.

I demand answers.

I just had to log off the server because its behaving like the last time i made a comment about it.  I'm seeing lost packets but ping remains stable at around 20ms for me.  Its around 3:20pm Pacific time.  Its been good for the last few days but its acting up again.

Thank you.

Thanks for the follow up.

I believe we've fixed the problem. Let me know if it's still happening.
