Finally no more lag kill!!! I was on Wolfenstein the other night and I was finally able to dish out sum whoop ass!!! MOH was pretty cool also, although I'm not as familiar it so I tend to get lost alot. No more putting up with flak from punk ass 12yr. olds.

How about meeting up online sometimes, preferably on weekends.

Who wants sum?

Now that you got DSL... go to http://www.dslreports.com/tools and tweak out your settings, make sure you maximize your DSL potential.

Speed Test
Tweak Test
Dr. Ping

are good tests to run... I more than doubled my speed after tweaking.

I've used that site a lot in the past. You can find the answer to a great many broadband issues there, particularly gaming.

We've had a little lunchtime gaming group here in my office for I guess 3 years now. When we started we had some equipment that was significantly slower (processor issue) than the rest. Generally the same people played on those desktops each time.

When I was able to upgrade, those people kicked ass in a big way. So I wouldn't be surprised if you wallop them now.

Groovy... thanx! I really did kick some serious ass in Wolfenstien Sunday night. It was great..., killed three guys in one room, killed a bunch of guys in the back, was able to avoid guys coming at me while shooting back at the same time, I couldn't stop laughing sometimes. I was giddy with power.:cool:

Ping at around 25-35 on a good server and around 150-350 on shitty ones.

Go get yourself some Battlefield 1942 or some Day of Defeat and then we'll talk.

But get a joystick for BF1942 so you can fly the planes. I have had some problems flying with a keyboard...altitude problems...:scary:

Been thinking about BF1942. I really hate when I jump from game to game, I always end up heving 3 or 4 games half done. I stopped playing NWN because I got into online gaming. Meanwhile I haven't played CivIII or any of the halflife games for almost a year. :what:

I probably will end up getting BF1942, since it seems to be a very overall complete WWII game. I've learned to configure my keyboard options so that they are the same in both RTCW and MOH. Lot easier that way, now instead of jumping I can reload when I have to. :laugh: I'll plan on doing the same when I get BF1942. Hey I'm already getting online savy. :cool:

I know what you mean Cuda, I just got broadband again two weeks ago. I use to have a dedicated 625k DSL connection then I bought this damned house. The best I could get after we moved here was 24.6k...YIKES! Talk bout slow, but everything is better now.
