Console kicking laggers?

Actually, high ping is not that big of a problem. Unless it's 500ms or over 1000ms = combat impossible.

The bigger problem is high loss. Simply, if you're downloading something and some of the packets don't get through one of the routers on the way.

Try connecting to Hamburg City server and experiment with downloading stuff. You will, most likely, be kicked out very, very fast.

Now if someone is using a really bad connection, he/she can have pings of 3000ms, even. THat's bloody three seconds! Really, even if the server allows you to keep your connection ... you can't really enjoy playing.
