I had 13 k ping yesterday. 2 battles in a row I coulden’t fly normally.
That is not the servers. That is your ISP or internet connection. Or it is malware stealing like 100% of your bandwidth. Cntr+shift+ESC go to processes. Show all processes from all users. Sort them based on type (user, system, etc) and look for ones you do not recognize. Then right click it and end process. Ask me for help if you need it.
Also any issues you have can be a shortage of regional bandwith and you’ll know it when your games have lower pings and run smoother at night but barely work at midday because of internet traffic. If this is the problem then it doesn’t matter how good or bad your internet is or how good or bad the servers are.
Really? So even though we are moving around uncontrollably on our screens and crashing into things, we actually aren’t? What about the crash damage when bouncing around (especially in the tube map)? If I dare fly an inty on a russian server on that map all hope is lost of I collide with anything just once. The ship turns into a ping pong ball and uncontrollably smashes into things and I die.
Yeah, from what I can tell at least. It does weird things. Evidence of this is when you have high ping and you hit an object at full-speed, but you take no damage. Your ship didn’t actually hit the rock in the game/on someone with good ping’s screen.
When you become a “ping-pong ball” and bounce all over the place, I think that it corresponds to you giving an input earlier, but it didn’t register for a bit, so the inputs you give chain up and all respond at a similar time, resulting in your ship doing weird things (this it what it seems like at least).
I used to have a solid 400 ping for a while for… Reasons that I don’t know, then it got better and sat around 70-150. (200 on a bad day.)
Star conflict servers in a nutshell:
