Answer» I play warrock on-line, and my machine is a HP w/amd64 3800+, 2 gigs of ram, ATI x700 video card. I have a DSL connection via ATT/Yahoo. I experience alot of whats called "lag" in the game where the graphics get jerky and slow. Sometimes it starts off good, but the longer I play, and just some games I join, are really jerky and slow. The other players call this Lagging, and ask about "pings"... what are they talking about? How can I solve this issue? Is it my connection, or processor speed, or just warrocks servers?In a lot of online games, when you are choosing a server, it gives you a huge list. There is usually a column for server NAME, game time, etc. One of these columns should be called "ping" or "latency". Choose a server that has a ping under 100. Also, try lowering your graphics settings. It might be lagging because your machine can't run the game properly.Im warrock player, Ping or Latency is what others bring data from their computer to the game server. The more is badder. 1-99 is good. 100-199 is ok. 200-over is bad. You have the option to choose which ping to allow the users to join in game with you (if only u make the room). If you didnt make the room, the info about the ping can be seen far right of the LISTING room names. Try at least join 100 and under. Lower total of pings that people in the room can be LESS lagging. Also set all your settings at low, turn off the shader model, and turn off the blood effect. You should have (almost no lag)
My secret to stop lag...
Open up the warrock, but dont click the ok button yet. Open up the task manager, close down the explorer.exe and any other PROGRAMS you are running, then close the task manager. Go back to warrock and click ok. you will have almost absoultley no lag at all. Hope this helps. Cheers~
