*drools* this game is awsome multiplayer, it is sooo realistic ie, u dont run as fast backwards as you do forwards :P. It makes americas army and counter strike feel like pac-man. no dedicated nz servers, and few NZ hosts so if ur on 56k too bad, if on cable/js 250-300 ping is perfectly fine.

Aw, and here was me thinking that pings of 80 to Aussie and 200 to the US were more acceptable!

Thats on JS too, not cable yet.

Oh, 3 players MOHAA through one cable connection, pings of 30 and less to an australian server :)

200-300 is unacceptable for most games but it is fine for this.

30 on aus servers? proof?

Er, how would I prove that? Other than you could ask Bullchicken? Or trust me?

Last tuesday we played MOHAA on an aussie server, and we were getting pings of about 32-35 each (3 of us) and sometimes quicker than that, and that was faster than the average aussie on there also. Which is why we were getting scores of 50+ to their 15-20

It was the defining moment in my quest to get cable.

just sounded a bit strange since cable on nz servers is in the 20's
