<div class="IPBDescription">Real information inside!</div>Hi guys,
We fired up a server in Australia, and within half a second it was already at 10 players and grew to 20.
Everyone in-game was lagging very badly. Pings were green for half of the players but even they lagged, as I was one of them.
1) From the server side, I noticed CPU usage was 80%+ on every CPU core on the server host (8 cores total)
2) As a player, I noticed I couldn't move around very well at all (very jagged/laggy). Voice and text chat seemed to work fine.
I also noticed that my in-game menu (pressing ESC key etc) was very laggy.
3) Unfortunately we could only try one server because:
* You need Steam installed on the host to play
* Ports are locked at 27015 (the game client appears to only try the server IP:27015, ignoring the server's reported port).
Cheers,
Andrew
