Unusual Lag?

Well, I've had the same problems. And it comes and goes... one mission it's lagging, another it wont.
Seems to come and go, last night we had some very good runs followed by a lot of rubberbanding in missions then it was fine again. Since we all experienced it at the same time it's a reasonable assumption that it was at the server end or a bit of network close to it.

My average FPS rate with the 'show_fps 1' command comes up at average around 65ish, which isn't really that bad tbh. It's just really odd how this is happening all of a sudden.

Framerate has nothing to do with lag and 65FPS -is- actually a good thing.
What you should be trying to find is your ping, using at least the /netgraph x command (where x is 1 to show and 0 to hide).

Yeah it's been a load of undercarriage for a couple days for me. I just tried to play and I kept getting Mapserver Disconnects....then it'd change its mind and come back.

Point taken, have tried that command and it pops up as 165 (on average). asked a few SG buddies and theirs seems to be around the same as mine and none of them are rubber-banding etc whatsoever.
Update: Just sent a petition and the only reply I get is to use the /sync command. *sigh* as if I don't know this already..
Sync issue is happening so much lately that I have had to make a macro.

Right, it's been a few days now since I've started experiencing extreme cases of lag. Powers are showing up a lot earlier than they should be which gets frustrating. In the beginning of this week I've been able to dual-client mine and a friend's accounts with ease. But now I'm having trouble just running 1 client on the 'Performance' setting.

Well anyways, if anyone can let me know if they've experienced lag lately just so it calms my nerves for the meantime I'd be more than happy.
Any comments / feedbacks are welcome. Thanks for reading =/
