Actually the CPU usage on a program running on your computer has nothing to do with the server whatsoever. Older Ultima Online clients is using 100% of your computer when started, that was fixed in more recent clients, but how fast your processor in your computer runs has nothing to do with how fast the server is sending information to you. Try logging into a different UO server and watch that your 100% CPU usage on the client will still be the same. CS has a better client that doesn't take 100% CPU usage, good for them, but it's not the servers fault.



Luda, I'm not saying that your processor, your ram or your harddrive is causing you to lag. You should not be "freezing and almost unable to move" with a computer like that, but you may experience some lag due to it tho. However what I really ment was rather that you may have spyware or addaware on your computer slowing it down bigtime. Do you have a good antivirus program? If not then get one, u can try one for free at most big antivirusprogram-sites. Try norton, it's easy to use.

Anyways, if it would be the server lagging you so much that you almost can't move at certain times, then you would _NOT_ have 120ms at those times. Sure your download ping may be better than the upload, and that could cause you to see other people move but be "stuck" yourself, however the ping would STILL never be even close to 120ms if you would be lagging as bad as you say you are.

I suggest that you do what I said and just let some player try playing from your connection, who knows, maybe you'll get a surprise. Last time I checked Smoke was not "unable to move" in-game, he runs way faster than me and has low delay on all his spells.

The server may lag us all a little bit, sometimes we experience "spikes" just like a worldsave which is very small, and THAT my friend is the server, when EVERYBODY freezes at the same time, but not the things you're experiencing as in "almost can't move at all", "oh so laggy", etc etc.

you must be joking hate because when i run uo i have 80-90% cpu usage in use, and when i play cs which is a far more complex game to run i have 40ish with things on i can take a screen shot if your not satisfied im 100% sure this is the server because our server hardware is screwed and we've been waiting for a new one for nearly a year and a half now
