Be on soon. Just updating our CZ servers.

And, yeah, Karkand was superb. Not many games can be that intense with only 6-8 players involved.

yeah kark always seems to hit the sweet spot. I suck at SL though always seem to forget to pass out orders quickly, too intent on staring at the minimap wondering where to go next. If admins are on can we have a karkand and kark 2 night?

You missed another excellent BF2 night.

Even a couple of base-rapers failed to spoil the fun. Pld all.

I had to drop as well, sorry team.

It turned in to a slideshow for me on Dragon Valley. Did a drive defrag and tried again around 11pm on Fushe - still choppy.

ISP is PlusNet, who have had issues of late with their traffic shaping and its effect on gaming performance. So I'm not ruling the connection out.

(Also, aren't BT starting their rollout of up to 8Mbps ADSL round about now?  I wonder if there are any core network issues?)

Worth running Pingplotter in the background next time it happens?

I have never been subject to that kind of thing before in any game any where, any time.(Mmm, there's a jingle there somewhere) Odd, because the map previously played ok. I had a gnash gnash moment,, then went and took it out on my car.
Oh, my ping was running at about 15-30, which is pretty good I'd say.

My ping was OK too but a ping plotter trace after disconnecting showed issues in London trying to get out of the BY network - seems OK just now though
