Max Ping and why theres no rare loot at Airfield

[wongky 0]

What is the Max ping that i can have to play this game smoothly

the max ping i encounter is 120 what is the max before everything becomes jumpy

i raided the airfield just north of Stary Sobor but i cant find anything except some AKM and shotgun ammo

And also any server that is good/hacker free you might recommend

Thanks

It helps if you connect to servers that are based near you (in terms of country location of the server) as otherwise it can mean your ping will be in the 100's. Do you know what internet connection speed you have?

Also, ping dictates a lot, but frame rate it does not! Personally, I'd say you'd want around 25-30 frames per second to make this game enjoyable, and that comes down to the Computer spec you're running on. Something else to consider!

And finally, just because the rare loot spawns in the airfield doesn't mean it will definitely be there. That's a complete contradiction of probability. Maybe someone beat you to the loot, maybe you just had bad luck and it spawned some typical items!

Rare loot spawns rarely. Who would've guessed?

The first three heli crashes I found in this game had JACK ALL for loot. One of them had three pistols lol. Then the fourth one I found had a m240 mod 0(think that's right, might be off on the 240 part), one of the rarer, more powerful, weapons in the game.

Random is random ;)

I was following someone named Bobcaperrte to a crash site until he dies from zombies at polana then i decide to go to the airfield

it just sounds like your internet connection, 4 mbs down is pretty bad; i get about 24mbs down in the usa. Definitely stick to asian servers or aussie servers.

Give this server a shot.

Chenarus Map, Extra Millitary bases for your high level loot,

^^ That. You cant expect on a crowded server to find loot, even if not crowded, alot of people go there for the loot :P

At that time every body was near Cherno or Elektro

some dude is throwing a party at Cherno

and theres only 12 people on the server

Still, the clue is in the word "rare". There's never a guarantee of finding rare loot, hence the fact that it becomes "rare". Regarding the server kick, ignore it unless it becomes an issue, it's the admins antihax tools messing around.

Wherever I spawn I never go more than 5 deer stands without finding an assault rifle of some kind. That's usually more than enough for me to survive the usual standard of bandit I come across :-)
