Members Ssnake Posted January 9, 2009 Members Share Posted January 9, 2009 One place to go would be www.SteelBeasts.eu for multiplayer sessions at "civilized times" (e.g. Wednesday evenings, 8:11 p.m.). If you want to battle ze Germans, that is. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flanker15 Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 Yeah same thing last time I checked!Was wondering though, how much does latency effect multi games? I'm in Australia so playing on a Europ or America server would give my a rather high ping. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tacbat Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 If you don't want to do the math for the different time zones, use this:http://www.worldtimeserver.comI've played on the German server, and I'm in North America, so there isn't much of an issue with lag/high ping. We had 30 players on the same server at that time, so connection speed is mostly a concern for the host. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything above 450 may be a problem and you might experience some lag. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
