Hey guys,

Im interested in finding a BFV clan - hopefully you guys. I have been playing since release, and for the last few months played with a clan called TAW. Anyways they shut down their BFV division, and I need to move on.

They are well organized, used squads in teamspeak & so forth, so I am up on how to use comms efficiently. I am familiar with all the maps (except these new 1.2 maps), and am a good infantry / engineer / tanker / knifer in the back when snipers are staring in their scope. Im a decent helo pilot as well. Mainly I just want to have fun in a team environment.

I played with a lot of you guys last night and had a good time. And I hope I showed you a little of what I am capable of. Anyways, Ill be seeing you on the server within the next few weeks. Hope to see you there and maybe even become a recruit.

Yea ur on the server pretty regularly, we had many a battle.

You got some issues with your ping though.

Yeah, Ive had days where it usually is abot 110 to the UK, but this week It has been kind of high. Im trying to investigate other ISPs at this time.

Who are you with currently, and also what is your location?

I live in ISrael, my ISP is Netvision.
Ive been running a lot of traceroutes, and actually have found that I am pretty stable at 110, but occasionally I get prolonged periods of 160-170 and those usually happen right before the server hop. It is strange, but it seems it isnt ISP related.

I am going to shoot off a few emails to the hosting365 supoprt to see what is going on, but regardless the game for me is very playable even at 170. Of course I prefer 110....

Why dont you run some traceroutes to 212.143.205.230 that is my first hop, and tell me what you guys see. Thanks

Wow, only 14 hops from me to you

Average ping of 193ms.
But that's me and my notorious ISP.

yeah chorus is ghey

it only does 9 hops from mine and stays pretty good most of the way and only goes bad after the 6th hop

Yea earlier today Netvision had some sort of glitch. Tonight i played just fine at about 120 for most of the time. Either way, I did some research and found an ISP which seems to have more bandwidth straight into Europe and am going to investigate them.

Cya round
