Latency

Postby Plague[SanD] » Thu Feb 04, 2016 8:44 pm

Hey, I think it would be really great if i could set the latency of the bot when using your hosting service to 20, or at least a lower minimum than it is right now. I am regularly playing Warlocks with a large group, a game that requires low latency as its based around skill shots and dodging, so as you can imagine, low latency is essential. I would love to use your bots for hosting it, as ENT is the best Warcraft community out there for connecting with players. However the latency is turning me away a bit.

Could the minimum be reduced, preferrably to 20?

Couldn't agree more on being able to put the latency low enough so that its a lot more comfortable and fun for games that are played in high apm, Thank you for your understanding !!

@uakf.b

Did you add this in the past? I remember u added something with a limit. Maybe it wasnt latency but another command.

Edit: User requesting the limit to be changed so !latency 20 is possible. I think you did not want to last time because it does not help everyone. Maybe u will reconsider this time.

You should be able to set the latency to a minimum of 50 ms. Setting latency lower than that is not supported as it can cause load issues on our server.

Edit: actually, which location do you usually host in? Some locations are able to tolerate this.

Germany, as most of our group is from Europe.

Any update on this? Even if Europe is not the location that can tolerate it, I think I'd honestly rather play on Atlanta, New York, perhaps even Los Angeles if the latency was at 20.

Perhaps another possible solution is to set an exception for when the Warlock map is hosted? It's just the low latency is really essential for this game.

You should now be able to set it to 20ms in the New York region.

I've tested it and its working, thanks.

If it's ever possible to be added to others in the future, I'd be grateful for that too.

But this will definetly make the experience better so thank you.

Should be fine with New York for now. Do post a suggestion again if you'd like more locations explaining why and we'll see.
