Just wanted to poke in and say hi and hopefully clarify one thing.
I just spoke on the phone with one member who has been playing since June and has played 1000+ ranked rounds. At first, he seen no issues. Around Sep/Oct maybe he noticed things getting worse and right now he can hardly play 9 holes without 1 - 3 meter spikes at anytime of day and boy is he frustrated. This has been a common theme for some people, I wouldn't know personally because I only joined in Dec but I have spoke to many people and seen many threads on this.
For him, and many people, the time of day seems to have little bearing if any, this was never in question, maybe that somehow wasn't clear, I tried but maybe never succeeded . However, for other people, like myself, that seems to be the only factor, quite a contrast I know and hence some of the confusion I believe.
I really do believe that certain combinations of things are playing a part, like I mentioned in the original thread. XP and firefox might be better than XP and chrome. He has tried them all and some were better than others, not surprising but interesting for sure. Between the different combos and different server connections, it can be hard to piece things together.
Something curious too is the person I spoke to says he doesnt really see the graphic and loading stutter like I do, for him its mostly the meter but for him its bad. So again the combos of things seem to play a part because for me I see issues everywhere when the meter acts up and for him he doesn't.
Anyway I guess its bordering on a beat to death horse by now LOL
Happy hitting and great shooting, I see you on the leaderboards often, I'm hoping to get up that way a little at a time :)
