PGI.

For months now my usual 280ms spikes every second game to 335ms.
HSR is still also complete rubbish.

Now the game-mode gimmick of CW is out can you perhaps start working on real issues which affect gameplay? Like network performance (considering MWO is an entirely ONLINE product) and being able to put damage where you aim (a fundamental concept of FPSs).


Cheers

I am just wondering - what is your best ping time, from Australia? I am in Western Europe and i usually get 120-150. I dont think there is a way to greatly reduce ping times without adding servers in Asia and Europe tbh. Also with CW introduction, i get a lot more lag and every match, i mean EVERY SINGLE MATCH someone goes DC, sometimes even 2-3 players. PGI, please do something.

There is no good ping time when you play games from Australia mate...
Only way is regional servers. Everything else is a half-way fix.

I get a rock solid 300 over on the east coast, and although hit reg is a lil sketchy it's passable.

Mwo is one of the few titles where high ping doesn't handicap a player that much. Ping stability on the other hand is an entirely different matter. The variation you're getting between matches suggests it's your connection or local system (which PGI cant fix unless they scrap HSR and flat out handicap anyone outside the US)

I'm just gonna stop giving PGI money.. I bought the year's worth of premium on my IS account only a couple of weeks ago and I fou d it won't let me activate a month at a time. Given that and all this crap too, I think its time to walk away maybe.
