Where in the World/PING

[Chaos Cornelius lucius]

After moving to Oz from the UK, I'm finding that the best times to play are from about 5am onwards up to about 2pm AEST.
As for ping rates, I have to be honest that I don't take too much notice of them mainly because a lot of the games showing up on my screen don't have a ping rate displayed. If it is over 700 or so I will usually avoid the game tho.

what about the accuracy of the pings shown on the side bar?

also why do some games not show a ping?

is there a way to get a more consistent and thorough reading for the game pings?

there have been times i would see 120pings on a game and jump off and relog and when i come back on that same game says 1200 pings.

300 is the top you would want for any type of game. a ping of 120 is very high on a FPS and over 200 will get you kicked. A ping of 270 (brisbane to America) is playable, but over 300 you are stuffed.

120 is good connection for this game as anything under 250 is still considered playable.

if all you play are guys who have below 120 pings your going to be awfully lonely
