    i live in the country so ihave to use my rooted phones internet (3g)...on american servers i get 130 ping...forein 300-
    every 10-30 minuts i get a 1-3 second ping spike. (yes ive timed it) and guess what....i get banned for 20 minuts...
    this is fucking ridiculous... the ping bans should have like a 10 second timer...when u lag for 10 seconds u get banned rather then 2 seconds

    I really do understand what you mean t can be very annoying but that's where you could make a server or get on one that is in a good range for you with ping I've seen you get ping banned a lot so consider these things or get a friend into the game and get Him to host a server
     
  3. Well, there's your problem. Phone internet is not meant for a high paced game like KAG. You'd be better off running it through ADSL.

    These two variables are set by server owners to stop it filling with high ping players.
    sv_maxping = 450; // Max ping allowed on server after which player is kicked. Large ping players will slow down server.
    global sv_maxping_warnings = 200; // Because of ping spikes, warnings are issued if a player has ping over max number.
    If you getting ping banned, it means your ping is too high by the server owners standards. Frankly your best option is to find a server that allows your ping
