hahaha a quake contact in the states asked me to join his local server..this was my experience:
-----------------------
haha what a laugh, I had a ping of 600-800 but could still play, sought of...
The first pics are of me on an empty server playing games where you run in a straight line firing, stop and turn around and see your rocket/blaster round coming back towards you.
Then I found a server where a game was in progress and joined in the fun!
Here's me actually getting a capture!
Here's me fragging some guy, notice my ping (I happened to have the score screen up at the right time) ! :)
hehe and my team actually won ! I got an assist for the winning capture too!
So you can still have fun despite ping, just not for very long. The only thing I noticed about the US players on that server is that they were very quiet. Hardly a word spoken...Cheers.
