  1. I just came back to the game recently, I was really getting back into the game until the only free-time I have available off of working I am unable to play and enjoy the game. I work long 12-hour shifts each day as a Sheriff Deputy and want to relax and play as desired. Sadly, prolonging server connections to be more stable is nearly un-bearable. The lag starts off minor at 4pm ( East coast ) and persists for an hour. Later as the day progresses: 9pm-11pm the server connections spike's tremendously! It takes atleast an hour and a half for the lag to wear off completely before we are able to play with good and stable connection. I don't know what's causing this issue for many of us players but, Certain groups of players are hindered at different times of the day as the server's become more busy, But the baseline time's I've listed above is the average lag times on US East Coast. If other players see this aswell, Just know you arn't alone.

  2. Well, your distance towards the US East Coast Host can determine your connection, and your own internet's stability and download speed are to be considered.
     
  3. I'm guessing East is his best connection as it auto puts you on your best server connection. like i am auto placed on one of the east servers.
     
  4. I have perfect internet, Currently I'm using Fiber optics that has not DC'ed once since installation and could run over 30 devices without suffering loss of connection or lag. This laptop is 5 months old and it currently runs 200fps on DarkOrbit and very high Ram aswell. I've talked with many other people and they have server lag at the same time I do, That's how I know its the server's and not I that are lagging and spiking. But I consider where you are coming from.
     
  5. FPS in DO never goes past 64.
    And what state do you live in? Your distance from the host can be the possibility.

    200 fps??? Are you using a supercomputer or something?
     
  7. Max you can get from a gaming PC/hand built gaming PC is up to 250, but games are designed to run up to a max of 200 FPS. If anyone claims higher, they are clearly lying, like that guy. The max DarkOrbit was made to go to is 64 FPS.
