Hopefully by the time EU transfers open up they'll have US-2 on the east coast. I wouldn't hold my breath, however.

Either way, that's 3 more months for me to skill up my leet exploited toon before transfers are available..

A question for people who went from 200ish (or more) ping to 50ish - i.e. West Coast players. Do you notice an insane difference in playability? In particular, how does it affect archery?

While im not one of the people your asking i can tell you that it doesnt.

I switched ISP while i was still playing DF, because my old ISP was crap.
I went from 150-200 down to 30-40ping, and there was a small difference in PvP but it wasnt anything major to be honest.

Maybe someone will disagree, but thats how i saw it. I hit just as much with archery etc.

[BlysterEB]

80-90 from east coast, Atlanta.

melee is the only thing ping really affects, maybe mounted combat.. More specifically chasing someone.. with < 50 ping you can still hit people you are chasing from pretty decent distance away.. with >150 ping you have to be RIGHT ON TOP of them which sucks.

[stebb]

150-300 ping iceland europe..

Please stop posting this garbage, have you ever played a FPS? I went from 250-350 down to 30-40, and there is a noticeble difference in archery. You do not have to lead your target nearly as much.

Not having to deal with LPBs is worth the price of admission.

[Dim Mok]

16-20 ping

[Kay Rica]

I'm getting 95 ping in the Midwest. :(

[wanderingdrunk]

50-60 vancouver

[NightsSentinel]

There's certainly a difference whether in Archery, Magic or Melee, hit boxes are closer to where I'd expect them to be at any given time helping me considerably with archery as well as melee. I feel like I can actually utilize the range of a weapon instead of practically having to touch a character to hit them in a chase on EU. Just my experience though.

I'm in Orlando, so in florida like Void.

I average 94 ping, and it only varies most of the time between 93-95 but can range from 90-100 at times.

I went from 200-300 with occasional crazy spikes to 40-50 ms.

Archery is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooo much fun now.

[Dread OG]

I had 170+ eu 21 US, its like night and day.

I noticed a huge difference just in my 50 ping improvement.

Avg. of 150 down to 95 is a world of difference. I can't imagine how much better it is for the 30 pingers.

[MrLuigi]

Went from 220-250 to 30-50. San Diego outskirts.

Same in Vancouver BC Canada.

[KOS allgriefers]

What is the IP of the server guys?

But remember guys! Ping is no big deal right? I waited all through beta to see them eat those words. Poor EU players...

Thanks, I was wondering that since I would only go from 130 to 90 when I get to transfer. Was wondering if it was worth the hassle.

[Leodus]

85, South Florida

[fay2dumb]

90, PA. It used to be 125.

[Dasea]

95-100 NJ
was 125

[Grimhawke[EB]]

My ping actually didn't improve that much. On EU I was getting around 120-130.

On NA-1 I get between 95-110.

I guess it is because the server is west coast and I'm on the East coast.

[Musent]

2-7 1 1/2 blocks down from the server :D

[Kydorias]

Orange County, Southern California. 17-23 ping.

It makes a big difference and its throwing me off completely. I got so used to leading my targets on EU by a large margin (I had 180-230 ping), I'm completely having to adjust my fighting style.

[Squatch]

80 - 90.

I find this much more appealing than the 210 - 250 I was getting on EU.

[ChinaCat]

What is the IP of the server guys?

Right click in game and go to Options. I think it's in the GUI area you can check on "Show Ping" and it will show up on top of your chat box.


30ms from Bay Area here. Was 220 to EU. /happy

I went from 200-250 to 40-50 ping on NA 1. I actually found it harder to hit on NA at first. Then I realized my mind had adjusted to the lag lead needed on a moving target and was aiming accordingly.

Now that I have that sorted, its great when I shoot or aim at something I actually get the hit everytime. Both archery and melee.

[Atreyubeat]

90 ms, from Orlando, Florida.

[Nonitrader]

Anyone got the ip address so a potential player can try ping it from the antipodes?

[Deveon]

so.. is it helping? are you dying less? :sly:

[McDoogs]

100 ping from 110

[Zarithas]

100 ping from 110

I am pretty far east coast unfortunately.

Ping is typically also 100-110.

[kager]

Went from 205-220 down to 55-65 in BC

So sexah

[ratio]

not getting a host that is central USA is full of fail and prompts the same issues in lag as the EU servers. 20ms and 100ms is truly a different game.

[Cards]

Was getting 220-250 on EU1, I am now getting about 45-65 on NA1.

Nevada USA here

[delwilson]

My ping is ranging between 800 and 1200. Can anyone offer any guidance? So info:

a. I disabled Windows firewall.
b. I am on cable modem
c. I experience no lag on multiple other games, including AoC, EQII, L4D, and more.

Help!

it's a world of difference. i had 180-210 before, and now i'm at 30-40.

spells release when they should, and hit what they should. when mobs move, people are more where they're supposed to be, less rubberbanding and viewed speed-increase caused by location correction (people running in circles aren't looking like they're running faster than possible (circle's radius is viewed smaller on NA as opposed to EU when running same actual size circle on both)).

there's time to parry a polearm, swing a 1hsword, then parrry again... no 1/4 second delays between actions.

when mobs twitch at the last second, it's possible to twitch-correct your aim and hit them still, even quicker ones.

you actually hit people when you connect with them with mount attacks, you don't have to aim in front of them

switching weapons/spells, managing inventory, accessing bank, dealing with merchants... everything is more responsive.

[Majorleague]

i'm having internet problems at the moment but even with that i'm getting 30 - 45 while in combat. if i'm just standing around watching the grass/weeds? grow i get 22.

there is a HUGE difference in the ability to block shots from mobs.
example: when i was fighting a mob i would normally swing twice then mob would hit me. i would try to block his attack but since the there was lag the attack would go through my parry. Now i can get my 2 swings in and maybe get a third in depending what i'm using and then block when i see the mobs weapon getting ready to connect. as for archery... haha... i'm not used to it without the huge lag. i can actually hit my target much easier now.

summary:
:( <--- me on EU
:D <--- me on NA

Edit: even though i'm in California i still belive the server should be in Texas. would be fair for everyone really

[Villicious Bile]
