    I noticed lately the server lags at random spurts or random kicks people and sometimes I and others have experienced freeze ups where we individuals lock up in place like frozen in time. I personally have Verzion FIOS and am based in northern NJ but IDK if this is something that is with the server or by chance our ISPs/ PCs?

Edit - Just a few minutes ago everyone got kicked from the game apparently but I was spared for whatever reason....thats really weird.

    I've expereinced the freeze ups but I've always attributed that to playing in another hemisphere and using my cellphone as a wireless hotspot. Credit where credit is due, but I'd say my ping usually hovers in the mid 100's. Not the best but not the worst.

Interesting you're experiencing this too with FIOS, isn't that like the best? Sounds like you could torrent all the yaoi hentai you want and play TFC at the same time no problem.

I'm in central NJ with 500/500 FiOS - everything else I do is perfect without jitter, choke, or lag...and my SNA tests (and VNA tests) all show "perfect" results. Drippy's is the only place I have been experiencing connection issues lately. To add to that, I've really only noticed this in the last month or so - sometimes worse than others. I have no issue with connection to other servers, regardless of location (aside from maybe a higher ping on a euro server, but no choke or spikes).

If I'm not mistaken, the server is actually located in central NJ as well, which explains why you and I are both around ~10ish ping. Even with that low of a ping, it has its moments where playing is unbearable

    HLTV has been on for 18 days so maybe the server needs a reset

I strongly believe that the server is located in Edison, NJ. I used to go to college at Rutgers New Brunswick back around 2012 when I played TFC as my primary game and my ping was no higher than 5ms when playing from campus. I think I actually drove by where the server is located based on the player map just for shits and giggles. But I have the FIOS gigabit plan and I work remote for one of the big three for healthcare and one requirement is that my internet must be stable and flawless for the work I do with no instability, jitter, etc. and our IT department said I had “god like” internet so I don’t think the issue is on my end (unlike those faggots at optimum who have the worst service both customer and internet). Net graph also shows some instability as well but I do not see it in other games I play like Sven-Coop and Overwatch. But the same time frame you described is also the same time I started to notice my instability at D2F both mentally and internet wise.

    I landed in NJ once and immediately got into a car and headed to Manhattan.

Anyway, unless it's changed and Drippy hasn't updated the info:

"2 - Drippy-'s 2Fort
2.1 - Where is the server located?
Somehwere in New York City, NY."

    But yeah, server having issues I haven't ever seen, freezing periodically latency going from ~40ms to ~100ms then back, seems sniper shots register less often despite changing interp something def seems 'up'

    I’ve noticed it for hitscan like my SSG. And I fuck with my interp values a couple times in a round along with cl_updaterate. It’s like delayed a ms or two. And it’s not only for you faggots that keep hitting ADADAD like it’s counter strike or your pretending to be some 1337 player in some CAL ladder tourney from 50 years ago when you were in high school or something, it also happens at point blank or if the enemy is autistic enough to run at me in a straight line. Had to make a whole new crosshair for hitscan with different colors representing where my shot would register depending how bad the registration or lag or delay is.

    You did what now? Built crosshairs that take latency into effect on the fly? Do tell.

    Different colors to denote how much to lead my shots. But last I played there was an “update” to the server (glowing yellow players fresh from spawn), so I’m hoping things are back to normal now? Also curious what other changes were made (crosses fingers for 64 man server).
