BF3 PING

[Chrisn3108]

Hi There

The ping to local servers (by Telkom, Mweb etc) is fairly low at approx. 40-70 ms, but to overseas are between 200-300ms. Is there way to reduce ping to those servers. They have more maps active and almost always busy.

I noticed that when playing on CQ maps on overseas servers its almost impossible to kill your enemy even after emptying half a mag in his face.

Thanks
Chrisn

Ping = Distance, so unless you move to the West coast then no.

xDSL just means replace the "x" with a letter IE ADSL/VDSL.

The standard servers are the fullest.

Standard digital copy is about 35GB and premium witll be about 10-15GB more I think.

I recommend you get a physical copy.

Ok thanks I think I'll go with the standard copy. 35gb seems a lot of bandwidth usage. Any recommendation whose got it cheap.
