Anyone having ping issues on World Call? Pings have spiked up to 300 (140-160 usually for EUW) for the last week or so and Dota 2 seems to be the only game affected. WoW, BF4 and CS:GO have the same pings as they had before. Anyone got any solutions?

Maybe you are joining servers from EU or NA. I am using Dubai and Asia both are working fine. There was high ping issue few days back and it was for everyone, not only me.
All the servers are high for me (it isn't just me, my friend as well). EUW gave us the best ping at 140-160. Now the lowest we get is 260 to india and dubai, 300+ everywhere else.

Using World Call? The best I could ever get to SEA was 250. I have no idea what is causing this issue but its been happening for me and my friend (both living in Karachi) for nearly a week now, the game is pretty much unplayable.

I've been getting high ping on eu w as well with ptcl for a few weeks now, it went from 180 to 350+, now I'm stuck with sea which I find to be very unpleasant.

[MENTION=11094]StrikerX[/MENTION] any solutions?
Use VPN for now. Its a valve issue
we have redone our Amsterdam POP and we are waiting on a link back to the game servers. Until this is completed we cannot share the prefixes for the game servers with PTCL. I hope to have this resolved soon.
They've told me 2weeks so lets see.

Dota 2 is giving 11 fps on my friend's pc. I thought it wasn't that demanding..
His specs are

Core 2 duo e4300 1.8 ghz
Amd Hd 3470 ( I know its ancient )
2 gb ram

His settings are all lowered and still getting 11 fps... but before the reborn dlc (last year) he was getting ok fps.

that's what im thinking ;s tried almost every "manjan" found on the net, those steam launch options, disabling steam overlay, increasing the virtual memory etc :s
try updating the amd drivers. once my friend faced an issue like this but not this severe.

also try some other games out. like team fortress 2. to determine if its the game or the pc at fault

    I have a PS5 but I am not satisfied with the experience. I am currently saving for a 4080 64 GB rig soon. Bit will wait for Pro if performance improves. This gen has been so bad I don't plan on buying consoles anymore for AAA gaming.

  • L LegacyGamerGuy:
    Consoles were my main platform ever since Atari 2500. But now I think it's not worth it as PC especially with DLSS deliver far smoother performance. AW2 on console didn't even had ray tracing and ran below 30fps. Similar issues plagues DD2 on consoled.

    As per WCCF Tech review, Xbox Series X doesn't even maintain a consistent FPS and sometimes drops into the mid-20fps range. That's unacceptable, tbh.

    Score 1 for game pass. I wouldn't pay full price for this at retail either.

    Just downloaded my first legit digital PC game on GoG at a discount of $8: Two Point Hospital. The same team behind Theme Hospital Two Point Studios now part of Sega. And I am having more fun than most recent AAA games except of course BG3.

    Still, I don't like either Sony or Microsoft as they are focusing more on corporate greed than delighting customers. PC gaming is best of gaming and worth every penny.

    PC Gamer score of 58/100 for Hellblade 2??? Is it really worse than Gollum that was 64/100? Microsoft games can't even come close to high scores of Sony exclusives apparently.

    About the Microsoft (and Sony) debate, I feel both have become too greedy and losing their minds over corporate greed. Personally, I will never buy any console next gen and switch to PC gaming where democracy reins.
