More info please? Connection speed? Wireless? (Check your processes, maybe something downloading/eating up shit loads of proccesoring power)

Atm im on 2.6mbps and wireless,im usually at 70-90ping and lag upto 140-450 very often (packet loss),theres not much to do about it but to get cable internet and not wireless or to get a better connection.

[Nurax]

well, i have good internet connection and in other games everything is perfect... just in moundt and blade my ping is usually up to 500 then down to 30 up again

I have the same problem, I think it occurred with the new patch.
Never had the issue before big patch!

[Nurax]

I had this problem too. I was playing normal but sometimes i had 1k ping for a second and = disconnected. I tried to tell this problem to my internet provider for a week. They tried all options like port, ip, dns etc. A day its solved but i dont know what they did But be sure i didnt play for a week.

Yeah, This problem must be tied to the last patch. Suddenly is been having lag spikes on NA servers up to 345 or more. Usually it stays at 45/50. Either cable is pooping itself because of the constant bad weather, or I have an unwanted background program... (I hope not), or it's just the patch. Who knows. I would scan your computer tho, just in case.

Hmmm, I notice similar problems, but very infrequently. I also think that they only started recently...never noticed it, before.

i never really have ping problems, but sometimes i get graphics lag... witha  ati hd 5970, which is a 500 euro gpu...
Also been getting it since the last patch.

I got it after the second last "fix" patch. I even reinstalled windows and nothing changed. Worked perfectly before.
And i must say i find it seems to differ from server to server, and it doesn't always occur at first for me.

To elaborate on how i experience it:
The screen would freeze for less than a second and if i was walking i'd slide animationless toward where i would've been standing.
Sometimes i would experience lag with 17 ping, but i think that's a different problem.

How could the patch screw with ping

[Memento_Mori]

I have the same problem, but I don't think it's from the patch.
Warband's ping goes crazy on me from 60 to 200 easily sometimes even going as high as 600. It seems only to happen during the peak hours during the day which sucks because that's normally when I can actually play the game, nothing is wrong with my internet connection, I've done speed tests & even called Bell to see if it was a problem on my end. It just seems that once everyone is on Warband at once my ping goes out of control, I can play in the early mornings and super late at night but other than that my ping will be un-manageable.

BTW, Warband is THE ONLY GAME that does this for me. Every other online game I play is completely fine, so usually during peak hours I'm playing Bad Company2 instead of Warband

I've had this problem a while ago. I would lag like a maniac (400-600 ping) for 5-10 seconds and then it was back to 25 ping again.

I tried a lot and eventually it was a problem with the way W7 deals with wireless and the fact I had a wireless connection. The lag on my network would be <1ms normally and when I lagged in M&B it would be >1000ms network lag.

I pulled a cable through the floor and I never had the problem again.

The only lag I have now is server side. My ping is steady between 20-30 on EU servers.
