The lagging really hinders my playing because many times I think I'm further from the enemy than I am only to see myself still getting shot then I'm dead. Also getting hung up on things & can't move until too late. This is frustrating. Another problem I'm having now too is when I tap to move, it doesn't respond. I almost have to hit the screen to get it to respond.

I too have lag problem doesn't matter if on wifi or not. Get chucked out mid game. Find myself on different part of screen etc. It was really good a couple of updates ago....no lag at all but seems to have got bad again since last update.

Lag is hard enough to deal with but this is what else I'm dealing with.

Lag + text messages
Lag + email
Lag + text messages AND email

It is worse on the weekends

We'll take another look into it, but we're really not sure what would cause it.

The physical server itself is fine (way stronger than it needs to be), the server code isn't throwing any errors or time issues (it tracks if it gets behind, or hiccups for more than 20 miliseconds), and we haven't changed any of the code since the end July... Not sure if its just an issue with more players being on at a time, that we need to look into, or if theres something else there... We'll keep looking, but a bit stumped at this point

That being said (forgot to mention)

Just tonight, we added some server restarting code. If the server looks hung up (or crashed), for more than 60 seconds, it will auto restart. Which should fix a large section of problems

Dam near real time data comunications never work

I think I've learned to play with the lag I know just how far I have to round tables enrage still gets me sometimes but the worst is the long tap problem when a game is lagging it stops u in ur tracks realy annoying
