in your opinions, what game has the best netcode? I'm gonna have to say far-cry because iv played that on a wireless dsl connection the a steady 70 ping! its beautiful :P
 
The ping that is displayed varies based on the server your on, the current connection that your DSL is, and the signal your getting with your wireless card. It really doesnt have to do with the coding they used to make the game.

i know, that goes without saying i meant that when i said "steady" 70 ping, meaning that i got around 70 on most servers, and yes it does in fact mater how well the net code is programming, if its sloppy and bloated (halo netcode) than you wont be efficiently using your connection speed and will get a slower response time

sheeze....why does everyone on this forum assume your and idiot

I mis-understood what you were actually trying to say. From what it sounded like in your original post, you had a low ping and just assumed it was because farcry was written well on the network aspect. I never played FarCry online, so I dont know how well it works with me, however I know that Halo does have a much higher average latency than most games, with my average being around 150-200ms, bs 80-10ms on most Counter Strike servers.
 
I have never played FarCry so dont know about that, Halo doesnt work on my machine (but when it did I got 70-100 ping), and in CSS I can get 20-50ping. Wolfenstein gets 130-170, dont have time to list all my other games 50-300.

So Counter-Strike Source is the best netcode for me. :)
 
Day of Defeat Source, so basically the Source engine, I get an average of 40. 1Mb/512Kb DSL shared with my brother. The good thing about our ISP is that it upgrades the connection without raising the price about once or twice every year. We started with 512Kb/256Kb. :P

Farcry? Farcry's netcode was horrible. Their CEO actualy admitted that when they were designing Crysis.

It was actually quite funny to hear him admit it was crap. But they did fix it in their patches though.
 
i had downloaded all the patches before i even played it so it may have been bad before the patches....all i know is it was superb when i played it
