Post by: DAMIEN on July 15, 2005, 06:31:13 PM

hey dunno wut this means... happens ocassionally and only on select maps. tends to happen the most on indune. that message willl appear, sumtimes once, sumtimes alot and when it happens i laggggg. seems like the more times the message appears the longer the lag lasts. dunno wut it means or if its fixable?

It means the map sucks and should be taken out of rotation by the admins.

Actually, it means either your connection is bad and you're losing a lot of data, or there's too many entities visible, causing your bandwidth to become saturated and you start losing data (the above can lead to this -- yet another reason why one-path/all-auto maps suck).

heh another evil that dial-up causes. and cmon now maps such as this arent so bad i think they are fun "quickies" between the longer maps that end in the time running out. they provide instant kill/cap gratification whereas the larger, multiply path maps provide satisfaction in the strategy aspect of the game
