Hello
I will say it straight away: my flatmates keep p2p programs on pretty much all the time, even if only for seeding their filthy p**n. They keep it up even after a talk, thus the reason I still try even though I teleport all the time.
Usually when I have lags, it is at least shown on scoreboard. Alas for two days already my shown ping is a stable 30-40. But - I teleport every 10-20s or so, and it is for me - with lags I did not see it but others did, here I can see it.
For a few games it was alright - no one said anything, so I kept playing. But at some point I was best scorer and that made them notice my teleporting. I probably got reported, I do not mind it that much - at least until I get a perma ban or something. Which is why I am writing this.
I wanted to learn if DB servers are currently in any way affected by something that would cause mini lags. I’ve heard from one person that even with good ping he/she teleported occasionally, so I thought it is probably worse for me in some way - but sadly I am unable to get better internet in a shared flat, and I love Dirty Bomb and do wish to play it even with, what seemed to be, small lags.
The biggest problem for me is that ping ingame is perfect and I am not surprised people will see this as a hack of some sorts. I use cmd with ping command for EU server for Dota 2 as I consider it to mirror DB connection well - and it does show lag spikes.
Again: I do wish to play Dirty Bomb, I already did not play for quite some time. So it would be great to hear that something like this will not get me banned, albeit I would not be surprised if it did.
Best Regards
Alpagaus
