Game speed variation??

[Fez]

So someone tell me please, why one match the game speed is fast and fluid and then, another match, same surface the game seems slow and my strike power feels diminished. What is the cause of this variation? And its not lag because lag ratio is same in these matches. Anyone else know what I'm talking about???

It's because of the delay chosen when you create the game and the ping.

You must always choose a delay in line with your ping (as close as possible to the average ping the lobby displays).
Farther is the delay from the ping, slower is the game I think.

If you put a delay below your ping, you will also get a lot of turtles. This setting is then very important when you host a game.

how do i choose a delay???

When your opponent joins your game, you have acces to this information on the lobby page (you see average ping and below, the delay stuff ; automatically it's "delay auto", but you can tune it).
