Just not good enough GG

Another Thunderbird user here.

I've had no problems with it in the last 5 or 6 years.

Thanks for doing that Mrs ?

Also you managed to get my least bad side

I also use the free Avast. I changed over when AVG introduced version 9.

Happy Birthday oh rotund one

I completed the heroes epic today and that is not showing as completed.

Try this from the tech forums

One point I'd make is there is never a correct time to buy. There is always new stuff coming soon or prices will drop soon

I would say if you are ready to start then start. If you wait for the "best" time you will never build one

Damn I really must read my post before hitting submit. My excuse is the forums keep logging me out so I try to post between log outs

Er I meant 1Mb

I have to add that I can upgrade to a faster speed but I would lose 50% of my data transfer allowance, yes I do use a lot, the last few months on my PC I've used over 60Gigs a month You have to add in my wife's PC use and any other PC I put on my connection

The ISP I'm with Zen.co.uk are great in 8 years with them I've had no connection for one day and one week slow connection.

But as I'm about to be out of work I may have to change to a cheaper option.

As yet there is no way we players on EU servers can play on NA or NA players on EU, well not without taking out a sub. to the opposite servers

We live in hope that a full server list merge will happen.

Seems to be a strange problem.

Reading the chat on Defiant yesterday people with more then one PC were reporting problems on some but not others.

I had some minor problems, took two or three attempts, getting on last night but my wife didn't.

Another smug beggar here

No major issues for me either. Some mapservers, which after doing a tracert came down to a bad node between me and the servers in Germany (I'm a EU player). Since the server move to NA these seem to have stopped.

I use a self built PC
CPU Q6600
Graphics GTX275
Memory 2 gigs
XPpro SP3
Asus Motherboard

My wife also has no problems

Another self build
CPU AMD Phenom2 quad core
Grapics GTX260 (factory overclock)
Memory 2 gigs
XPpro sp3
Asus Motherboard

We are connected on 1Gb broadband.

I'm based in England (Norfolk).

We ran a all Fender Itf last night. For the first time almost since the Itf started we ran all the way up lag hill. I found that frame rate was between 15 to 25 most of the time but now again dropped to single figures. In the past I would have had a slide show all the way frame rate 1 to 10 if I was lucky.

So for me a thumbs up

But a Turkish member of the team was having problems with map servers and DCs

Nice to see that the good guys win sometimes

Just adding my trace from Norfolk UK

So far and I have to admit it's only one nights play. I have had less lag then before.

This could change but so far it's good.

So far for me the new servers seem as smooth as a snakes inner thigh

I can only speak for myself.

But I would keep all my alts (35) that are on Defiant on Defiant.

I would roll some alts on the NA servers. I would like to try the Drunk Server (mainly 'cause by 10pm on the weekend I'm drunk)

I also have no problem with getting teams. So much so that my solo projects are taking a back seat at the moment.

But I also think that it can be hard for newer players.

Most of us who have little problem with teaming have been playing a while and have several global friends and are know on the server (thinking about it I wonder how I can still get teams) Newer players don't have this network.
