EXTREME ping fluctuation
Posted: 2013-09-15 03:12
1.0 was working FINE for me just two days ago. Since Friday afternoon, it has been completely unplayable. I have disconnected everything from my modem and am directly plugged into the tower, no change. I refreshed my broadband signal from my ISP (modem reset). I ran resource monitor and the highest things on the list were PR and PR Mumble. I closed all ancillary operations (dropbox, Plex media server, etc...) and still no change. Ran anti-virus for and it said I was fine. I disabled anti-virus afterwards and still no change. Disabled FIREWALL and still no change.
I have run multiple speed tests and they all return good results, and I can torrent at 2+mb/s without a problem or drop in consistency.
It could be an empty server and I get a fluctuating ping between 60 and 600, accentuated by sporadic jumps to 800+ and connection problems.
This has made the game unplayable. It's turned into the most frustrating experience ever, as I keep skipping around the map. I can't even lead a squad properly (which involves less shooting than you might think if done properly).
