Default Hazards of high ping rates.

Hi,

I was on syndicate last night with a ping of about 250ms and everything was working fine until a few other people joined the server taking the number of players up to about 6.

All of a sudden my response rate for my Hurricane suddenly dropped through the floor when a bandit got on my tail and I was shot down about 4 times in a row. It's a bit like flying through treacle, though I cant remember it happening in COD before. Also I got the sound bug for the first time in a while.

Il2 had a similar problem with large numbers of people on the server and playing with a high ping.

With the close of the only regular server close by I might have to move to bombers if I'm going to play online.

Anyone with similar experiences?

Cheers!
