<div class="IPBDescription">.</div>Does NS play well under lag and/or higher ping?  Just curious for all those ppl out there that have bad connects.

    I have played on cable and 56K, the prediction is so well done, I noticed very little difference between then 2. Very few lags spikes, slow downs, etc

    Plays just as well as any other mod with a high ping connection. You can expect some small anomolys but nothing unexpected, eg, it taking a split second for the engine to draw all the objects in a new room you walk into, shooting an alien and it killing you 'unfarily' resulting you in screaming 'I SHOOT YOU FIRST J00 CHEET!'...erm...yeah, the usual high-ping stuff <!--emo&:)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'><!--endemo-->

    Some mods are alot more laggy than others, for example, Tour of Duty is murder on 56k and cable alike, but DoD or Firearms seeem to have less lag.  This might be just because of amount of servers, but it really seems like there is a difference.

    By the way, Res, if you have a question or a suggestion, it's a good idea to search the forums to check that I hasn't been talked about before.  For exapmle, there was a topic about this posted within the last two weeks.
