Steady Ping - Trovare il giusto setting

[Erik]

Buonasera Forum, possiedo una connessione in fibra ottica 2.5 Gb in download e 500 in upload. Il Ping è di circa 7-8 ms verso Google. Tutta via in game ho partite che variano da 9 a 25 max di Ping dipende dal server di gioco. Chiedo, qualche valore potrei inserire in steady Ping? Se attivo la modalità semplice in 8 ms il gioco mi mette palesemente in ritardo mentre con un valore di 18-20 ho dei fight puliti altri invece dove mi sciolgono in una frazione di secondo. Forse per la mia connessione non serve questa funzione aggiuntiva? Grazie

That's your ping to the Google server, it doesn't mean you'll get that ping to anything else. Without steady ping, in the average game check by how much your ping fluctuates - if your ping is fluctuating by less than 5ms then you're probably fine to leave it off. Higher than that then use simple. If it's higher than 10ms then I'd suggest using Expert.

in game my ping never varies more than 1-2 ms, but if I turn on steady ping with a value close to 15 ms the game gives me that feeling of a moment's advantage in a firefight that I usually don't have.

Definitely don't need to use expert then, if you get a better experience that way that's great!

and as if by raising the steady Ping (up to a certain limit) the game puts me at an advantage over the enemy because I have this buffer that helps me. Absurdly I have to raise the Ping to have a better gaming experience, I just can't explain this.

Maybe but the idea of the feature is to give you a consistent ping, one that doesn't fluctuate at all. Even though your ping doesn't fluctuate much, perhaps the combination of a slightly higher ping and a ping that is constant is making a big improvement

So like if you have a 25 ping, need to set is like 35 or 40 for better games

exactly. it almost feels like having a higher Ping than usual in game, the game no longer puts you behind the enemy.

Not exactly on the fritz, if it can't ping the server then it can't know what additional ping to apply. It also won't work 100% of the time generally just due to compatibility
