Cool game, but I refuse to play with idiots who don't understand the concept of Team. <-This is not in reference to ATOT members but the idiots that were on the same server as I.

I'll play it when it can play with other refresh rates just fine. This is a bit ridiculous.

I loved the single player demo, this multi sux ass. The lag is unbelievably horrible and I'm getting 40-50 pings on the servers I'm on. I've tried every connection setting from t1 to modem and it doesn't make a difference.

Too bad, I was hoping this could replace soldier of fortune II as my online gaming fix.

I'm not going to reboot my computer everytime I want to play the damn *demo*.

you have to reboot your computer to change refresh rate..... weird... I don't ???

Not to change it for the desktop, but for the DirectX and OpenGL refresh rates, I do.

so my server is messing up eh? I was playing for a while last night and didnt notice anything... of course people weren't connecting when I was on. The console window did decide to reset itself every hour or so... possibly reloading the map or something. I dunno. :p sorry it's not perfect.

no chance for GOTY if they don't fix the lag problem. yesterday it was fine, but today, when i connect to a server, everyone has a 900+ ping.
