WARROCK: A GAME + COMPANY THAT CARES ABOUT LAG.


H
it FPS title WarRock is a new FPS game by K2 Networks.  K2 Networks cares about Lag in a way few, if any, companies ever have.  They care about all 3 types of lag: PC Lag, Network Lag, and Server Lag.  They have made huge innovations in all three areas, and have PROVEN that they care about Lag.  In short, they are the first game to ever declair their game LLR Ready (Lag & Latency Reduction, Ready).  Why?  Because WarRock plays SMOOTH as butter when played on a system powered by LLR Technology.  So much so, that the Killer NIC is a recommended system requirement for playing WarRock.  Other forum members have already done benchmarks for the Killer NIC and WarRock, and yes, it makes a huge difference.

Obviously PC Lag and Network Lag are helped by WarRock making their game LLR Ready (e.g. ready for huge improvements in FPS and PING when used in systems powered by LLR).  What else is this innovative company doing?

First, they have built in a hugely innovative matchmaking system, it connects people to other countries to play each other, it tells you how busy and laggy a particular matchmaking world is, and how it is relative to you.  In short, it does great matchmaking, so you are not stuck playing with laggy gamers.

Second, their innovative peer-to-peer hosting system reduces Server Lag a lot, by making the Server less of an integral part of the processing done in the game.  This kind of system leads to smoother gameplay for all.

Finally, I will just say at a personal level, that playing WarRock is just damn fun.

Rock on WarRock, and thanks for caring about Lag, and innovating.

Of course, thanks also for believing in LLR Technology and the Killer NIC!

I Love warrock. I paid for premium, and I have to agree... the game is definatly not laggy... except for a few minor bugs that creap up now and again that introduce lag. The game is great.




Warrock is my first love, My First ever FPS but after 2 years im actully thinking of droping it because of the FPS lagg i receive sometimes.




wla lang




I like the game but i have 1 problem with. My gun is lagging. alot of people have the problem and im just waiting for k2 to fix and a update. but still its a good game.




Lately their lag problem has been prominent... Ive been looking on the net for reasons. I believe it has to do with the latest patch but I do not know.




I love warrock but it lags so much. Impossible to play, 80% of the time you and the enemy kill eachother!




Stay away from Warrock if you value your money and want a stable game. Patches take months and offer little content or fixes. Lag has become a big problem due to people using software to lag on purpose. The punkbuster can take months before hackers are banned. Most of the rooms are filled with hackers. At one time most hackers could be easily spotted but not anymore. If you speak about the problems on the fourms they will ban you. Much of what they say in the press is like the Voice Chat has yet to materialize. There are a large number of bugs and glitches that have existed since early beta. They have no plans to fix instead they wait to catch paying customers using them and ban the account. The company who runs the game K2 has little control over anything other then taking your money. While premium users are paying monthly to use better weapons hackers get them for free. There is no true reward for supporting the game and they will still treat you like garbage. The guys at K2 simply want to take the most profitable route for the short term rather then make the game better. In the end we the customers are left to suffer while they worry about appeasing the free players rather then doing more for those who pay. Sure they might let you use a gun for a couple weeks. During that time the hackers have them too. That does not cost them a penny while adding premium only servers to paying customers would cost them. God forbid they actually spend some money to keep customers paying for the game happy. In a few more months Huxley will be out hopefully and Warrock will be old news.

I ALWAYS FREKIN LAGG WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i have probably gotten over 1000 deaths because of lag and probly over 2000 kills because of lag me and my warrock buddies thnk there should be server maintenance every few days and wen in process of maintenance anyone who is lagging even the slightest bit should be terminated from server until it lets them logg back in to watrrock cause there lagging has gona away

How much did warrock pay for this joke of a review. Warrock is by far the laggiest online game i have ever encountered. They dont care one bit about minimising lag.




Here in India the War Rock has utterly flopped due to lack of open mindedness of the people in the organization and do not have a good professional approach towards their product launch or towards the maintenance of their game in making its game a grand success. My Cafe which initially took deep interest in promoting the game just dropped it like a piece of shit when their management showed their narrow mentality and attitute towards the suggestions and feed back we gave to them with respect to the LAG as well the GAME PATCH issue. Lots of Marketing inputs were provided for the successful launch of the game but due to inside politcs in the organization and very novice technical team here they have been utter flop show. It is spoken in the streets that this organization has paid a whooping 2.5Million to Anil Dhirubhai Ambani Entertainment Division for promoting their game at their Gaming Plex and it is pathetic to note that hardly any care is given towards such a waste of money which investors have put in this organization called K2. Anyway its their baby they should know better how to bring it up in the initial stage so as to reap the fruits of their efforts rather than we breaking out heads and time and money in promoting this game in our Gaming Cafe here in India




lol




the stuff above is PR rubbish. Lots of players lag, many experienced players (and teams) use seondary apps incl downloading films to create lag, giving them an advantage in game play. the truth. beware. its free, but everything comes at a price




warrock laggs so bad,im a gold member but makes no difference to me lagging iv tried all sorts to resolve it to no avail.....
