<div class="IPBDescription">Whole. New. Game.</div> I played a game last night on a 12 player server. Lag? 80ms for me, and ~100-130 for everyone as a general level.
It's a whole new game, folks. I was playing as Kharaa on (map with the elevators - Quad Lift and Shaft 01) and it was a totally different experience. After a nasty start as Gorge (having to suicide after being stuck), I stuck as Skulk. I could Bite and actually HIT with ridiculous accuracy and regularity. Marines dropped like flies to the gnashing teeth.
I became the killing machine I was hatched to be. The über-Skulk. Myself and a Gorge held a tunnel & RP against a stream of Marines with little trouble. I'd hang back and Parasite everyone who came around the corner. When they retreated, I'd give chase, and hear that musical "I need a medpack, stat" radio comm. Around the corner I go - and in a swift chomp, it's all over.
I won't even bother to detail the carnage that ensued when I became a low-ping Fade.
Let's just hope all the servers get this kind of <100 ping. Keep those CPU-utilization patches coming!

Great place to play, although normally passworded
It's a 16 player server, and even PRE-PATCH, back when it just launched, people always pinged dobule digits, we are talking 90's and down, the msot it would get, even at full capacity, is half the people pinging 125's and 150's, and the other half in 80's 70's and 90's
Now the pings after the patch are orgasmically beautiful
