| Yes, I was online on this hour. The server that we was playing is alserv2019 Coop. We was about 8-10 players. Sometimes there was some lags, means that the game was frozen about 3 seconds. I think the lag appears when there are more than 8 players, I don't know exactly. But when I was playin at 1:00 we are about 5 players and the conexion was well. SirPufonel, what PC have you got and your speed of internet? |

| 8 -10 players, so i guess the "safe zone" would be 7 players at maximum ? According to my ISP i have 100 Mbps down and 30 Mbps up [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] , my ping on the server without lag is really nice 49-50ms, medium lag 70ms, lag over 100 ms. The server is in Germany and my ISP has a good connection to the West of Europe because they are connected to an IPX from Germany My PC spec`s are: - Intel Core 2 Duo, CPU @ 2Ghz - 4Gb of RAM, DDR3, - 1Gb of Vram, DDR3, Nvidia GT 430 - 2 x 150Gb, Sata2 HDD`s - the power source has 500W The only thing really old on my PC is the CPU and HDD`s they have over 6 years, but they work just fine. What about your PC spec`s ? |

| I have got optical fiber of 100 MB.
My speed of down is 44 MB, and my speed of rise is 10 MB. My latency in servers is around 50.
The features of my PC are:
Intel Core 2 Quad CPU Q8200 @ 2,33 GHz 2,34 GHz, 3 GB of RAM ATI Radeon HD 4600 Series
And I don't know how much my PC wastes of electricity.

| Regarding time when you report something on the server. We all should use the command - Code:
-
thetime in chat to get the server time. It will display something like: - Code:
-
[SM] The current server time is 11/02/2013 - 16:32:46 Then copy/paste this string to your forum post when you report something. So I can use this timestamp for any lookup to log files etc. without having to worry about timezones.

| I calculated how much my PC wastes of electricity and it consumes the double of your PC (about 1000 W).
What operating system have you got?
I have got Microsoft Windows XP. |

| Good morning,
Windows 7 Ultimate, 64 bit. Yes i guess my PC goes to that value too, in my post i was talking about the power supply that my unit has, its 500W and it was changed so the GPU can work without draining to much from the old (7 years old) power supply that had only 400W.
My GPU has active colling and requires a power supply of minimum 300W, i just upgraded mine from 400W to 500W just to be on the safe side. |

| I've turned off the survival now too. I hope to see the other servers full today afternoon/evening to see the CPU load with 7 servers running. |

| During the time i had played on the L4D2 server i did not noticed the same... "amount" of lag on my machine. Every time when i "smell" the lag i will issue thetime command |

| Check the logs for "nice round lag".
As soon as the round started i have experienced lag and the game hanged up. I want to see if this due to my hardware or something on the server.
I have used the command "thetime" several times hope that helps you. |

And on which server was it? Oh i see. You can search the server log for the word "thetime" i did not see any other user using this. It was the alServ2019 Coop server. Magic is this corect ? |

| Back with some feedback... I have tried connecting to other servers that have 10+ player slots. The situation repeated, my game hangs, CPU goes to 100%. I got back to a L4D2 server that had 4 players and after a map change the game hanged up again on me. To eliminate a server issue i have started L4D and connected to one of the servers and nothing happened during the map/campaign change. I guess that my 2Ghz CPU is a bit slower even with the game at the lowest settings possible. So Albert, if you still want feedback about lag i can provide it while playing on the L4D servers. Hope to see you guys on the servers, untill then i guess i will have russians, bulgarians and ucranians to keep me company Later edit: i even made it in the top 100 players of this community that plays L4D2 [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] and i HAD the rank 90, and thats pretty good since i`m a non-pro gamer. |

| Today I played in alserv2019 Coop and I see that the console says something about thetime. I hardly ever have got lag, but the lags appears when there are a lot of players. I think that you can reduce the max players to 8. |

| Today there was a lot of traffic on the servers. I checked the server FPS (with "stats" command in HLSW) I saw the server FPS dropping often. You could see that in game with console command - Code:
-
net_graph 4 Check the last line which contains "sv:" and "var:" See information about "sv:" and "var:" in "Area 5" [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]So I think on some servers there was some lag sometimes. I'll stop some servers and keep watching. Which servers will stay on or off is still open. |
