Hey anyone know why I join BF2 Servers that have a Ping of 80-100 I play Fine, if I get a SF Server with a Ping of 50-60 it seems Laggy and Choppy. Only play 24 Man servers on SF and any Size on BF2. I know my Ping is not causing the Lag and I am guessing it Is Video lag but is this something everyone has a problem with or just me ?
How long do you stay on the servers? Usually it is laggy for me in the beginning of the game for any server I join but the lag goes away throughout the game.
Try servers in your continent, turn down settings check you are not dropping packets because of shared bandwidth, you got broadband right?
I ussually Stick through the Lag for a few Games, And I do have HSI ( Cable 8Mbs ) the lag is probably 70 - 80 percent of the time i am on the server, however I do notic it does get better after the first minute or so but never completly goes away. I was wondering about the whole Video settinsg and I guess that was part of my Question. My Vid settings are equally the same from BF2 and SF and this seems to be an SF issue. Is SF hard on the Graphics card ?
Check your lag settings...erm...the INI file or something. It usually has the lag compensation in it (dunno if that's it)

Use the server search that you can link to from this site, you know the link that opens if you click the name of a server? Then search for a server closest to you.
also just keep playing the server and see if things get better, they normally do for me.
last but not least, buy more ram

try this out when you get into the server and the game is going type this in: hit the button to the key left of the #1 button ~ then type PB_Sleep 500 and see if some of the lag goes away. Also try and look here and see what you might have missed here. http://forums.bf2s.com/viewtopic.php?id=22556
