Just wanted to ask if there were moments or times where the server lags?

The reason I ask is because of the players yesterday evening, were experiencing higher pings than normal. Normally, such players as myself and others who are from the USA, we normally have a ping between 145-155. Yesterday, it was reduced to 190-225.

Thanks if you know the answer or reason. It felt strange playing yesterday. :D

Being from USA largely excludes local transient stuff..and it will be transient general internet traffic and how the connection was routed.

a down-server in the route can re-divert the traffic momentarily to another proxy so you'll get a higher ping.

try at such times this link...

www.netspeed.net and compare good times with bad times...that will tell you if it is a server thing or a general internetnet thing or your local isp.

make the servers you will ping (to test) the same. one in Germany, another in Frisco, the thisrd is where your isp is. you will be surprised when you compare the results... ;)
