Default Lag is unbearable

I don't know about you, but 1 update per half a second on a dedicated server with 2 players is unacceptable.
I could go by a listenserver with 4 players in it in the old version with less lag, whatever your doing to remove the bouncy glitch is worse than the bouncy glitch itself, assuming thats the cause.

Let the stupid blocks bounce, I want to play.

Edit:
Also, for those not convinced of my connection speed

I've been having some bad experience with Lag as well Night... However i can get roughly 10 or so minutes on a 4 player DS without problems, then the lag and then it all starts over again....

My server has serious problems with Ping Spikes more than anything. Suddenly the players Ping sky rockets to 900 then back down to 60 ish.

Then there's always the problem where suddenly your cursor appears but there's no immediate apparent problem with the server, you press Esc and your back at your Desktop?

I got round this problem by intentionally crashing Windows Explorer before loading up the DS.

Know anything bout this problem Knifa?

you've never had problems w/ lag. You're playing sourceforts, right?

Lol, I don't have as many problems as most cuz i generally host and keep my server down to six ppl, but i still get it when i go into others' servers. I wish they could fix it.

Well, I dunno what happened, but when I played with entRo's clan on 1.4.13b, even though I had a 200+ ping, I didn't really notice. But 1.4.1 has really killed me for some reason, I don't know why. To be honest, I've only played a couple of games since 1.4.1 came out, its just not any fun with massive lag.

I'm in the UK, play on a lot of US servers, haven't really noticed any lag apart from the usual stuff.

It's weird. Like Stinger said, when we played the 1.4 beta versions, I didn't notice any sort of lag at all, and the netcode even seemed better than 1.3. Stinger had upwards of 200 ping and he was able to compete with us easily. I was running a listen server with 6 players, and it was fine.

I never play on any server with a ping above 100. that applies as a rule in all online games to me.
