    I often play with +300 ping. Never really caused me an issue provided I'm not in a vehicle.

    The remaining 10% are aimbots and exploits.

    communism usually griefs everyone else - now hes changing tactics and griefing himself.
    ping does matter: but because of the state the server binaries are in + crappor server hardware = very unpredictable results

    riflemen don't matter. Tanks are the proving grounds.

    Empires isn't a twitch game so connection isn't as much as a problem. I can have 300+ ping and still do pretty well.

    doesn't matter if i play on the euro server where i get 250+ping or on viper's where i get 70 ping, i still dominate the scoreboard. imo ping doesn't matter barely at all. it helps almost as much as it hurts to have a high ping.

    I agree. Ping doesn't matter as long as it's under 300 or so.

    Infantry aren't really affected by ping a huge amount, vehicles are nearly unplayable at high pings.
