which is the best pc game

Been playing cs:s for a few years now. Whilst it is good, most servers I play in are being killed by 60+ ping *******. Slowly killing the game. Anyone know of a server with max ping of, say, 30?

Max ping of 30?! Get off the Internet and LAN up :p

Whats wrong with 30? my ping in some servers is a contstant below 20, averagign around 11.
Oh and lan gives pings of < 1ms btw.

Just search for servers very much near you, ie. if you isp always hops through london or wherever search for a server located in london.
Also ensure your isp is a fast one, ie not much more than 10 ms. to the exchange.

for example I'm in the NL, and my isp always redirects through some point in a'dam no matter where i go, if i go into servers in my country ping is usually below 40, and when servers 're near amsterdam, ping is usually near 20 or lower.

To the OP:
CS:S imo best from the 3
WoW is somit to get hooked on way too soon, you'll lose your life.
Bf2142: junk imo, i prefer bf2, just dont like futuristic fantasy.

Sure, you can get 30, but the majority of players in the world don't... which was my point. I don't care that LAN gets less than 1ms, my jist was that everyone at a LAN gets really low pings... wheras on the Internet you'll always find some loser who can't afford 256+kbps upstream :p
 
Woops i misread the 2nd poster, he asked about a sever with a ping limit of 30, i thought he was askign about servers where he could get 30, sorry dont know any of them, as theres a lot of people on them poor cheap nasty broadband, as killerkebab said, imo it's impossible to find good sevrers free of people with nasty cheap inet.
 
in my opinion css is the better game by far and it also comes with HL2 which just sweetens the deal at £20. Day Of Defeat tho which also comes with it in my opinion is just utter crap and HL2: lost coast isnt reely a game at all.
 
wow has a story, but its insanely long and you get that ****** off, i haven't finished it, feeling however you play and it gets soooo boring. 2142 is for me better than most people seem to think. but its so random, good games compared to bad. so many servers can be good but if you get 31 crap opponents, or 31 people with a crap ping, or a team that won't work together against a team that will. cs is less team dependant, you can go on a good run and win a map on your own, because its shorter than 2142 really and the opposition won't all play as a team either.

get all three, play all three in rotation so you don't get too bored of one or the other. theres a couple of fps based mmorpg's coming out in the next year i think. one of the things about grinding in WOW is that its a click action game, you can't aim your bow or your special shots. so an fps based version where aiming is down to your skill and you can have a much more hands on active hand in battle sounds like a good combination added to in depth story and longetivity.

All I meant was that when you're on a server with most people in the 20'ish ping mark, you always get some 50+ people with no reg, killing the game.

Keep asking in game why they insist on coming onto servers obviously not in their country (hence ping), but get no answer. Happening more and more these last few months.

sorry but you cant compare css to the battlefield series as they are two totally diff games ... CSS is a very basic pick a gun and go kill or be killed, very very basic game that only gets good when played competatively ... BF2/2142 are far more advanced with MASSIVE maps, tons of vehicles / planes with more to do and not overly populated by as many whinny kids ..
as for dod being crap ? are you for real it blows css away as it takes more skill to use the guns correctly (recoil anyone) and more teamwork .. debate over
 
Theres are a few console commands that can make your ping like 5-10ms

Forgot what they are and dont even play CSS anymore

You can’t play CCS for 5 mins without some shouting Hax, Camper, AWP Newb or kicking people for refresh rates.

The CCS Community isn’t very nice in General

O how can i foget You F*8*88*8* ** *8 *8 8 Blocker A8*8**8*

Oblivion is the bestest game ever.
so good i gave up BF2/2142 etc.

I gave up on oblivion after 1 hour of playing so boring, while some fps games i've played since they were out.
Bf2 is a def. better game than oblivion imo, same for CS:S.
 
i retired from online gaming.
the cheating, language, selfishness, poor patches, crashes etc just got to me in the end.
this thread should be "the greatest pc game ever... in your own opinion"
so yeah its pointless but we all love to argue over it!
 
There is no such thing as a best game.
It's all personal preference.

Also, CSS and WOW are like Apples and Oranges.
