Servers for Low pings only is crap, it discriminates against those who cant afford a good computer, or even a descent connection, but when u chew out pings like 250 thats bs.  Its not  that high to affect u so why not let us play, its our handicap not urs

some admins(and normal ppl like me)  don't want hpw's on their servers.  they screw sh1t up...warping around and what not.

if u don't have a good connection, move into a civilized area of the world or get a real job...

i wish sof2 would ban all users with a ping over 150...

I agree that it would suck if you were a high pinger, doing the best that you can to play with your connection...

BUT!!!  If your not playing on a Game Server that you are paying for, then you don't have much at stake in the game and the game play on that server.

Just the way it is.

Actually, high pingers do affect low ping players.  Not only do you warp around and make it in some instances crazily impossible to hit you, but it is because of complaining high pingers like you that cruddy prediction code was invented, thus making it too easy for you to kill us (you know, when we duck behind a corner, and two seconds later we are dead from a shot you fired 5 minutes ago?)

Furthermore, I am getting sick of these whiney threads from kids who think that everyone owes them and that everyone is being unfair to them.

I pay $250 a month for my pipe.  No one else contributes a penny towards it.  Because of that, I will run my server any way I see fit, and I will allow and disallow anyone I #### well please.

And I am certain that most admins feel the same way.

when you start paying for the connections people use to host their servers on, then you can gripe about being locked out. It's their server and they have the right to do whatever they heck they want with it.

 The time you spend bitching about it here would be better spent finding servers that don't mind HPBs in the mix.

I wanted to go see MIB2 and pay 2 dollars. They told me to go to the "wino moviehouse" instead and watch MIB1 and Independence Day. Are they discriminating? No.
Same crap wiith servers. If you don't have the bandwidth necessary to enter a server, look for another one. It will be laggy, but at least you can play.

Servers for lp'ers I think are great. I'm a high pinger myself (high being the operative word, 300+ in combat). But as a high pinger I wouldnt venture into a lpb server only, for one of two reasons - 1. I'd get my ass kicked; 2. Its lpb only - and I aint one of them. We do slow it down for them, and we are bloody hard to hit.

In return I can only hope the lpbs show the same consideration towards the hpb only servers - and I can only hope it doesnt get like CS where lpbs would go into the hpb only servers for 'cheap' kills.

Freak,
I see that rumors of death and an odor are only partly true.

Now that would be suicidal. Why sell a game to only low pinging people? Besides that is discrimination at the very least. Especially if it wasn't mentioned on the box that you could only play when/if your ping was below 150.....ridiculous
