As for name calling...He started it with the insults not me.
And i know what can cause lag,im saying how to SOLVE IT

Its not untrue,its obvious that if you have more people using the same server,that server has more data to process.

/me backhands the original poster

The whole thing is already wasted space son, paragraphs use em!

You didn't read the article did you?

Oh oh I know what causes lag.

The theory of relativity does along with Thermal Dynamics, and finally all the known/guessed physics of the electron.

I really hope someone reads this and i'm not wasting time lol.
Dust has a serious connection problem,ive been playing online for 20 years and this is the worst ive seen and its not my connection,i can download 25 megs per second.Its inadmissable that a game as big as Dust has connection problems,i play Battlefield 3,for example and i get no lag nor connection problems and that game has got beautifull graphics.
I'm sure ccp is aware of this and i have a suggestion.You guys could contact a company that rents servers just like Dice did for Battlefield 3 and people could rent these servers.I also suggest banning lag switchers,if you dont know how to get them,heres another suggestion,just implement a report system and if they have like 5 reports for lag switch using,you just moniter his activity and warn him of it,if he persists you ban him,kinda like many other games.Thank you for reading this and please consider the servers rental,you can even make some money and every corp could have its own servers,thus ending all lag/connection issues.Its just a suggestion and im sure you've thinked about doing it,but just in case you havent,im writing and if youre wandering if this will kill the game,all i have to say is this...If you dont solve the lag issues,this games dies anyway,i barely play it already and everyone i know complains.Thank you again ccp.

You threatened to slap me boy,you called me son and you disrespected me by saying i cant type.
Plus,i can exlain to you the theory of relativity if you want son...
I know how servers work and computers and cpu processors,so stop trying to make others look bad.
Youre an admin in this site and you dont have the education to be one.
Your ego is writing checks that youre pea brain cant cash and in this battle of wits youre a light weight and completly unarmed son.

1. He's not an admin
2. You do type bad

No. No you can't the simple fact you don't understand why a rented server would fix lag is proof you don't understand (because quoting it is not the same as understanding) the theory of relativity.

Also an Unarmed Redneck is oxymoronic.

My typing is not the issue,im portuguese.

Let me put it to you differently.
If you play in a less crowded server that is near you(rented server) the lag is less,dont you aggree?

Disagree, more efficient servers are the way to go because each server is cost prohibitive to run because of the floor space, cooling, environment, technical support, hardware support, cost of cycles, cost of upgrades, degradation of bandwidth, cluttering of the cluster, counter to disaster recovery, backup nightmares, backup requirements, sigma six+ redundancy efforts, security, firewalls, employee and customer accessibility, environmental maintenance, software maintenance, and hardware maintenance, additional ISP contracting, Domain services... the list goes on and on as to why adding more machines can be considered a bad move at times.

I totally agree that better servers would be better but there are many server rental companies in every country and that would solve everything,CCP would just have to pay those companies to use their servers and the technical support would be done by those third party companies,just like DICE did with BF3 and we all know that works.

You still don't get it.

Battlefield has over 100k different games each a fragment away from each other with no relation whatsoever.

Dust 514 EVERY FIGHT is non-instanced. Its physically occurring somewhere in New Eden at a certain specific location every time. I can fly to a planet in Eve look at it and can tell if there is a fight actively going on the ground or not.

3. Lag switches? How can you tell anyone is using those what with your poor connection and all? Do they even work in this game?

They don't, because this game uses server-side hit detection.

Wow, this thread is epic. Couldn't read the OP, wall of text, but that has been covered.

But IWS is indeed right, even if he is being an ass about it, but I think that has more to do with your attitude to someone disagreeing with you.

Oh, and one more thing, is this your first time visiting an online forum? Every forum I have ever been too ostracizes people who use walls of texts. I have a hard time believing that you did not already know this.

Yes,i know,and i think its badly done at the moment.What you got now is 5 servers(if im not mistaken) that send all information to one main server and back again.If you had the rental servers you would have lots of servers sending the data to the main server.
Maybe youre right and it wouldnt work and maybe im totally wrong.
Im just trying to help,but the fact that its connected to eve might make it the same thing or even worse with the rental system.
