Lag spikes in MP when I shoot up bombers


Recommended Posts

I have noticed that when I pump lots of rounds into a bomber on WOL I get a big lag spike and then get kicked from the server. Short bursts don't do it but sustained fire wth lots of smoke and fire gets me kicked every time. Now I almost a great pilot but this has happened each and every time I have unloaded on a bomber recently. Is anyone else experiencing this problem?

Lack of internet bandwidth.

Bad internet connection.

PC Virus hogging bandwidth.

Too far away from server. (overall ping right on the server limit, and extra data past a point pushes ping well over)

Don't get this problem and play on WOL from Australia Daily

Never really happened to me before the last two patches. Not sure what, if anything, changed to cause this.

Bandwidth I would bet. Same problem. You think bombers are bad. Shoot the ground and see what happens. One day I'll get good internet where I live. Anyone got 15,000 dollars to run the line. Lol

In settings you can boost your connection from 1Mbps to 10Mbps. Not sure if it helps but worth a try?

Same problem. Its a lack of upload bandwidth. Gotta love Aussie internet. Even though you set an upload amount in the multiplayer settings, if you fire a lot of rounds into something (usually bombers) the game attempts to transmit more data than the upload limits you have set, exceeding your upload bandwidth and resulting in packet loss.

 

From my Wireshark captures, the data burst when firing is also TCP, so the game needs to retransmit lost packets. All of this results in the server giving you the boot. As it is not receiving the updates from your client.
