So this is what it's like to play online? Unplayable lag?

[imdahman]

I haven't played the game in years and picked this year up. When playing online the lag is HORRIBLE. There is a good 1 second delay between me pushing the right stick and something happening.

I just can't time anything or get anything to go. This is pretty bad. Is anyone else getting this kind of lag?

Pretty good, but not many players on the PC side, so waiting forever for an opponent, and you'll prob end up with the same person you just played against.

So far the lag is non existing. I've played cca 30 games all of them without lag.

My connection is 50/20 MBit and I live in Europe.

I've played two games so far. One was unplayably laggy for me, the second was slightly better, but other player must've DC'd because I just got kicked back to the main menu.

Most of my games have this unplayable lag. I played someone from my country in Europe the other day, it was terribly laggy. During the game I checked my internet connection, my ping to a test server in the same country was 9ms... I've had a few games where the lag was bearable, still noticable but at least not half a second delay on every action.

I've managed to see better results now that I've played about a dozen or so games. I'm still getting disconnects and some laggy games... but I've also managed to play a few games where the input lag felt like it wasn't there and I managed to put a good game in - or at least one I won't blame on lag for me losing, lol.

Actually I have question on this. What should we do to lower the ping and lag. I know servers are bad. But there must be something I can do for smoother gameplay.

head to head games are just fine but mypark is awful when people came around... it is ironic

How much frames do you get playing offline? If you don't get to 60 FPS, don't even try to play online, because every frame under 60 fps is noticable.

Question is, if the lag comes from a hardware side of performance or from a internet connection side of performance. If it's hardware sided, then begin with lowering/disabling crowd settings.

I get 45-60 FPS, there's some lag that comes with it but it's bearable, at least in 2k15. In 2k16, online games would be unplayable if people were actually halfway decent. It's way laggier at about the same FPS than 2k15 and it's not FPS drops.

I have a good system, good hardware combination and I got 50~60fps @high settings. I even lowered the options. When it's come to play in myparkchampionship I had issues.

I think problem is about internet service I am using. I am searching for packet loss issues. If I find an answer I let you know here.
