@Katharsas said in Lag and packet loss issues when playing with larger group:
You can see latency spikes fine with ping command, it will result in noticably high average. I have quite a it of experience with bad internet. And cable can be totally fine depending on which country you live in. For example in Germany, cable might actually be better than DSL a lot of times. 10/1 DSL (i had that 12/6 for a long time) is unusable, unless you never even want to watch Youtube or Netflix, or download something from Steam.
Back in the day I fixed the downloading with friends and coworkers; everyone downloaded something and we would exchange on DVD's and later portable HDD's.
I am talking pure about a connection for gaming. Downloading on 10 mbit sucks, I agree.
