Is it ok to play on Balota Buddies with a little over 300 ping?

Recommended Posts

I've been playing on Balota Buddies lately, but sometimes my ping goes a little over 300. In the rules, it says that you can't have over 300 when you get whitelisted, but sometimes I just can't help it and goes to like, 350-400. Is it okay to play then?

NO!

GET YOUR FISCHER-PRICE CONNECTION OUTTA HERE!

But really, if you mean it just randomly shoots up to 350, but otherwise it's fine, I think you'll live.

I would figure out why it's doing it and stop it. Sharing a connection or netflix?

chance of getting ping kicked in a fire fight and others thinking your combat logging.

Depends on what server you're playing on. How long does your ping stay up that high for, normally?

Our main problem with the ping being that high is on the AU server, because it's the most full. Your ping being that high for short periods of time isn't much of a problem on the US server [not a problem at all on the UK server], because most of the time it isn't full. PM me the server and more specific details of how long your ping stays for that, etc, and I'll look at it later today when I get home.

Nope. I just have terrible internet. A company just got hired to lay down some cable for high-speed internet in my area, but that'll take around 5 months. Also, the US server only kicks for like, 1000 ping.

Hello there

As an hounerary BB I have been auto kicked for having our 9000, sorry, i mean over 300 ping. But it's dependent on the "server".

On the A3 wasteland mission I'm also over 300 but I can get away with it.

It can seem unfair but is this way to help the majority.

If there's many folk in a certain region that want a server more local to them, then just ask. They may be able to wrangle something.

They're friendly folk to chat to about stuff. Also, try their forums as they'll be able to help you more directly there.
