When I was off at college, my ping was ALWAYS in the 2k whenever I initially joined a game, then would settle down at around 67 or 100, depending which server I was on. I just got used to it and tried not to move around a lot during the first 30 seconds or so. It just became expected after awhile, and I dealt with it accordingly.
HEY GUYS.
I just found out. If I create a server on my own, it doesn't ping me at all. In fact I was running around quite decently.
Anyone want to try playing with me? I want to get a group together. ^__^; How do I make an internet server to play on?
Aerowyn, try pinging to this IP and try to join it through CSS.
See if the pings are roughly the same.Code:213.190.195.49
If you're ping's insanely high again, then it might be possible that there's some software's blocking these CSS ports.. Seeing your ping to the Google servers were fine.
Edit:
Yes, if you create your own server that means you'll get 0-1 ping, as you are the server, however..Quote:

Hate to burst your bubble, but it might be true.
I did that and it came up to about 144ms. However I'm not sure if joining a server would cause it to spike. I don't even know how to join a server based on ip address. >__< I just started playing this like, yesterday.Quote:

-____-; I tell you. When I can, I'll try it.
Press CTRL+SHIFT+ESCQuote:

That should shut it down completely, then try to re-open it.
Hope that works for you. =]
No problem, take your time.Quote:

It only works in early morning. If I try to reopen it it does "Steam - Updating" and NEVER updates.
And I already tried deleting the .blob file like 16 times. XD So I guess I'm done on CSS for the night. Good thing too, I have homework to do. :\
EDIT: OMG PRAISE THOR. As soon as I entered that the login box popped up. Thank goodness. *runs to play*
EDIT AGAIN: Jeez, I think Steam fucking hates me. XD I did what you said about the whole IP thing and it says "The server could not be found" or something like that. :s GAHSAHJASHDAKSHKA. XD
