Thank god for high ping kickers... The servers I play on don't allow over a 150 ping.

It even quotes a connection speed on most game cases for good online play. I would build a connection tester into the game if I made it.

Obviously I wouldn't think the same if I had a rubbish connection. But I have a good connection and frequently have the lowest ping to all UK servers and a 150-200 to US servers.

So if you want to pla online games then go pay for a good connection or don't play at all.

I don't even have broadband in my area yet. I have been using dialup since before I can remember. Thing is, most games today have some kind of multiplayer function. This multiplayer is the essence of replayability. CoD4's single player was pretty good, but lets face it, the game was made for the multiplayer. Don't be mad at us for trying. Don't be hating at the person, when in fact it's the broadband providers that need to be addressed.

don't complain if you don't know what your complaining about
100k upload on dialup?? no.....my cable doesnt even have 100k upload, usually when you lag in a game its due to your upload speed being maxed out
