I wish I knew for sure lowei, but it could be a combination of ping, jitter and bandwidth. Obviously quality comes into it somewhere just not sure how it works.

How much jitter do you get on pingtest.net to the london server.

Ive noticed on MW2 that most games for me play at 50ms ping but that can and does increase up into the 100's but always plays smoothest when I,m in a 70 to 80 ms ping game.

how about you
