Super MEGA Battery drain, and extreme Ping..

[TheBaconKing]

It might be because I have a 3g, but my battery was draining faster than my computer could charge it, and then wall could charge it. Also after patching, and purchasing Ancient Swamps my Ping has been super high. Like 300-500. Normally it is around 150-200. I have even had it spike up to 1100-1500 just sitting in the towne, and up to 2000 while in ancient swamps.

I can't say if it is this past patch, but these problems are new since the patch was installed.

Well firstly the battery drain is because its 1) a network game, 2) graphics intensive. So I usually find that when I hook it to the comp, it cant charge as fast as I drain it. And I am using 3Gs.

Plug it to a power supply charger, it is more effective.

Ping creates lag and is definite issue but it could be my connection dunno.

Ive died many times because I had no control

umm

ping does not create lag.

ping is the time in milliseconds it takes for data to travel to and from the server.

so 50ping? awesome
1000 ping, means you're basically 1 second delay.
12345 ping going up by the thousands, means you've disconnected with the server. Maybe it will reconnect but untill then you're in limbo

Delay in firing means you get hit without being able to respond and can lead to death. I've died before without any idea who killed me.
