<div class="IPBDescription">NS rendered completely unplayable</div> After the last patch om Steam, I've experienced some major difficulties in playing NS (I don't play anything else on Steam, so I got nothing on other mods).
When I first log in, I can play for about 1-2 minutes without any problems. Then I suddenly start to freeze for 5 seconds, and it keeps doing so every 30 second, and eventually loses connection to the server completely (only the server, not my whole net).
When the freeze stops, my ping jumps to a range within 700-900 for a split second before going back down to 20-30.
I'm guessing it's a fault on my side, since I haven't heard nay complaints like this.
I recently after the new Steam patch upgraded to 1.5Mbit / 512Kbit, from my old 704K/128.
I'm assuming my connection settings for Half-Life are all wrong for this.
I'm actually not -quite- sure if I got the upgrade before or after, but I do remember that even with this 1.5Mbit connection, I often got ping jumps to 600-800, although I could still play, like run around, just lagged behind.
Then I think I started to play around with connection settings such as rates and updaterates etc.
I get no losses at all on the net_graph, only a few chokes within 0-10, though usually it stands on 3 or 6.
My current settings are:
rate 9216
cl_rate 9999
cl_cmdrate 30
cl_updaterate 20
Any suggestions, or perhaps even solutions?
Or anything I need to make myself even more clear on? I know I'm not good at explaining issues.
