THERES A NEW FOE IN TOWN.

the connection speed has nothing to do with the comp being pc or mac; it solely rests on whether you got a slowass 56k that runs at 24.0k like i used to or a super duper cool t3 like i got now

Blacky, iv had a 350ping in on a server for Tactical Ops which is very close to CS, it handled lag very well unlike a 350 ping in a RS game, so mac's can handle lag too

Coming from a guy that has tried to play this game on all kinds of hardware when his G4 was back at apple getting a new CDRW...... I'll add this.

1) All these comments are based off broadband connection.

2) G3/300 with 256 megs RAM and 8 megs Video sucked ass lag even on single player.

3) G3/300 with 256 megs RAM and 32 megs DDR Radion Video lagged only a tiny bit.

4) G3/466 with 320 megs RAM and 8 megs Video (iBook) laged like a bitch, even on single player.

5) G3/733 (overclocked and now melted) with 640 megs RAM and 16 megs Video didn't lag one little bit.

6) G3/733 (before meltdown) with 640 megs RAM and 32 megs DDR RAM Radion Video was had no lag at all, less even then my G4 500 with 1024 megs RAM and 32 megs Video.

Conclusion:
All are factors.  Modem speed, processor and video card all make a difference.  Please note, even with the fastest config's, I still had lag in some laggy games with whores that use the damn SAW while on 56k modems.  They warped all over the freaking place.  Don't underestimate the power of a good video card if you already have any G4 and cable or dsl.  It can make a difference.

Anyone want a used G3 blue and white.. hehe
