What is ping on the game screen?

[Rideordie43]

I was just simply wondring what the ping stood for.

It is used as an effective measurement of the player's latency, with lower ping times being desirable. Essentially the lengh of time your handset takes to talk to the server.

i usually got 250-350 ping, when it got over 500, it started to lag.
what about you guys?

is dere a way to keep it low

[Kossi]

stay close to your router if you have one.

also try turning off bluetooth, stop letting your device check for mail.

[Heartless159]

that works ... i guess
oo and another thing whats point of playing PL when u cant even buy the other places?

[Kossi]

ask the devs about that..where do you live? some places you arent allowed to buy platinum

[Arterra]

cannot go to a place, or cant buy it? can you buy platinum?

[Quack]

Pong you idiot.

[Heartless159]

[Kossi]

the deals get better as you buy more. i bought 165 plat for 20$ if i spent 20$ in 5 plat intervals i would have only 100 plat.

[Heartless159]

PING helps to check the connection strength between the computers connected in a LAN.Ping time is measured in MS.While checking results in ping ,if the sent and received data is equal then the connection is Good(i.e there is no loss in data packets).If it's not equal then the data loss occurs in the results and there is no connection between the pc/website.If your ping is high the connection gets slow,Ping needs to be low.Low ping is Good for Playing games.You can check the Ping of the Internet Connection easily...To check Local LAN Connection Ping by using the Following method
GO to start->run->cmd->Ping ip-address
or you need to check Ping for website from your computer means you can reach here Whoisxy.com (http://www.whoisxy.com/) and do the Ping test for yahoo,Google etc...
