Can't say I've noticed any increase in ping at all since the release of 1.9
I did notice the long-ish pause before the game starts, but thats only a one off and dosn't really cause any problems.

While I'm here.
Havn't noticed any majorly problematic bugs.

Although the shootbug has always been around it seems to be happening allot more recently. I don't get it very often at all (about once a month) but others seem to suffer allot with the problem. I know its Epics problem but is there any reason why 1.9 has made it worse?

I had that a lot around 1.6~1.8, I seem to no longer have it now tho, at least not much.

One other thing u might want to change is turning off the dynamic netspeed thingy in settings @ connection.

It's annoying

what is it doing?

Messy · Post by **Messy** » 04-11-2003 18:06

No idea, but every1 says it and it's certainly helped for me :p

Maybe it tries to change ur netspeed according to your connection's speed, causing to make ur ping fluctuate?

I'd rather have a ping of 100 instead of a fluctuating 70~90 tho, so that's why I turn it off then ;p

I noticed a small drop in accuracy with 1.9.
It doesnt feel like a lag problem, because Im not seeing the ball warp around the place - but I am missing more volleys. And seems a bit harder to intercept passes. Then again, it could be because I havent played much DB for ages.

seems like catch radius has been lowered, same with volley=/ dunno tho, maybe just using new version as an excuse

Messy · Post by **Messy** » 04-11-2003 19:17

Volley aimcone has been reduced from 75 to 60

As for the ping increase......There is no ping increase, ping stays around 60-70 for me, but it plays like frikkin 120.

And I've had the goal-fireworks bug just now.....its ugly enough after every goal, now I had it all of the match. Get rid of it!

Well, this only started like 2 weeks ago or something:

Sometimes, I can't hear soundeffects, so, I get hit, without hearing it, which can be rather irritating.
Or some1 shoots the ball away, which I don't hear (this is also in nice combination with the ball showing up 0.2 seconds late).

I've noticed the sound thing alot and the 0.2 thing too.

It could be also cause by the new sounds that 1.9 has introduced.

Fallen · Post by **Fallen** » 04-11-2003 20:07

However, as I told people on Irc, check your netspeed, capital's was 2600 and that is too low.

Oh, sorry, what was I thinking. It must be my connection after all. Thanks.

David, but maybe you could just have a quick check through the 1.9 code and see if there's anything that could possibly causing a problem? Just on the off chance it's not my connection.

Also, any network guys out there know how to fix my 50ms ping problems?

Edit: oh yeah, I do like 1.9, well done.
