Why do I rubberband? See attached netgraph.
This would be better to ask in the technical issues forum.
The best guess I can give is it may be packet loss, or issues with a node between you and CoH servers. Your ping looks slightly high for playing in the U.S. Knowing where you are located may help determine if your ping is a symptom of the issue or normal for where you live.
The best you can do on your end is make sure nobody else is using your internet connection. If it is wireless, secure it. If you have family on the network, turn their computers off while you troubleshoot. Also, make sure you don't have any torrent programs running. Make sure your computer is virus-free.
When I had repeated spikes like that, almost evenly timed, it was Microsoft Security Essentials causing it. I put my game folder in the program's exceptions to solve the issue.
As mentioned above, the Gameplay / Tech Issues forum is the best place to ask this, but you may want to look at any real time virus protection you may have.

The picture above shows the Netgraph for me connected to Triumph server (low population) at 4am ET on a weekday. Graphic settings were on low, 60+ FPS. Also I was pinging google repeatedly, 0 packets were lost. I notice this behaviour on Freedom server too, I haven't tested others yet.
Where I have circled in red is EXACTLY the times when I am rubberbanding. Can anyone explain what is going on in the netgraph? Why am I rubberbanding? Can I troubleshoot this further?
Any rubberbanding tips would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
