How bad is online gaming in Australia?

>>714856071 (OP)
You know that kid who was always loke "if I beat you it's because you suck but if you beat me it's because you're a tryhard and anyway I wasn't playing for real"?
It's mostly that plus Indonesians.

Terrible. Most online games are dead and a good connection is 140ms

>forced to play with whiny faggots
>any server but your own is unplayable
>lumped with Asians (not the good kind like Japanese)
>Aus servers are dead or low pop on anything but the most popular game (Fortnite) even then you have to play at midday on a weekend
>rife with cheating
I hate it

>>714856071 (OP)
pretty much pic related

>>714856071 (OP)
lots of tryhard retards that are terrible at the games they play, anything not mainstream is dead or high ping

>>714856071 (OP)
aussie servers are empty.
most games dont have aussie servers anyway.
most of the time you have to play on at least SEA servers.
US West and Japanese servers arent bad but lag a little, fine if you're used to 150-200 ping all the time.

cuz of this, most aussies will usually play
>FPS like CoD, PUBG, Dota, CS etc
>co-op local host lobby shit like Deep Rock and Lethal Company
>Strategy games, RPGs and other singleplayer shit
>the couple of MMOs where having 300 ping isnt an issue.

our connections are fast now since gigabit fiber became the norm 10 years ago, the communities are pretty good and there's always good bants to be had.

>>714856920
>>714856939
What happened to Aussie NBN?

>>714856965
Our internet's great, issue is that most games the servers are in at least the US, if not China or EU.
So you just play lobbyslop or MMOs like WoW/Eve/FFXI where 500 ping doesnt matter anyway.
We dont have it as bad as South Africans though, I had a friend from there that was saying they basically cant play anything online.

>>714856071 (OP)
Much like living here you have to play with Chinks

>>714856939
>fine if you're used to 150-200 ping all the time.

I hate high ping so much. Imagine if everyone could be playing with anyone else in the world at low ping. I don't think I'll even live to see that.

>>714856071 (OP)
Dead or filled with hacking chinks.

>>714857032
>I had a friend from there that was saying they basically cant play anything online.
Between the rolling brownouts in more ways than one this shouldn't be a surprise. It's why they fuck off to the other commonwealth states the first chance they get.

it's great

>>714857267

What are you guys playing with dead servers? It must be old shit.

>>714856071 (OP)
>all games are now all matchmaking
I hope you enjoy playing with chinks because that's all you're getting.
Stopped playing multiplayer around 2017 because of this.

>>714857381
aka good shit

>>714856373
>fortnite
The thing with fortnite and other titles is they all dialed lag compenstation up to 11. So everyone plays on NA servers (matchmaking) to avoid the chinks if they can.

>>714857267
>>714857124

Humboldt Cable soon
Ausbros will be able to play with southern conechads on their servers at a decent ping.

>>714856541
Anon Australia only does ISP DNS blocking. All other DNS isn't blocked. Only a fucking idiot uses ISP DNS.

>slower internet than new zealand

>>714856541
lol why is australia such a nanny-state?

>>714857097
~200 ping is perfectly fine, if you cant dominate any FPS lobby with a 200 ping you should uninstall honestly.
high ping is 300+.
around 250 it can be annoying to snipe shit but with practice you can allow for it.

>>714857032
Servers use to be local. Internode RIP and even fucking Telstra provided hundreds. Now everything is matchmaking fuck you not allowed to host your own and it all went to shit.

>>714856071 (OP)
depends on what games you like to play, most games work fine unless you are into fps games that aren't ultra popular.

>>714857381
>What are you guys playing with dead servers? It must be old shit.
>>714856939
You cant play anything niche, if you want to play online it has to have a huge pop, so top 10 Steam charts game or a well populated MMO.
Anything smaller than that you need to be able to make local lobbies and invite friends.

>>714857526
>Ausbros will be able to play with southern conechads

Playing with what? South America? Why can't they run a cable to Southeast Asia instead. Fuck. Who asked for South America?

>>714857497
Make this post and then this comes along >>714857630
200 should absolutely be unplayable you should be jittering around like a madman. Back in the day you'd be kicked for being over 100.

>>714857841
>don't you already have cables to SEA? i'm pretty sure you do

It's not good enough. The lowest ping I get in Dota 2 is over 100. They really need to solve the ping issue when it comes to gaming.

>>714857702
Because nobody in fucking Australia cares about internet, the cable is all money coming from Google and South America, it was either Australia or NZ to be chosen as the landing point because the US threw a fit sending their VP and shit when they wanted to skip either of them for a more direct connection to China.

>>714857831
I can only dream of speeds like this. I live in the country where there's little infrastructure and get 50mbps

>>714857630
depends on the game, like I used to play TF2 with friends from America and I would do okay, like I'd get above a 1.0k/d most games, but when I played on Australian servers I was absolutely wrecking everyone every game and got my first 0 deaths game.

>>714857989
i live in a capital city and still get 50Mbps down 4Mbps up. wont get fftp until 2030

>>714858064
>when I played on Australian servers I was absolutely wrecking everyone every game and got my first 0 deaths game.

Yeah, that's what playing with low ping is like. I absolutely hate losing because of anything other than my own play. I doubt anyone here plays Dota 2 but playing on any country except your own is like playing underwater.

>>714857526
Why would we want to play with South Americans? Even we have heard stories of Ragnaros

>>714857621
This. I grew up thinking that Aussies were the toppest of banterlads, hard working, hard drinking, rough round the edges, salt of the earth types. What happened to them?

>>714857702
>Who asked for South America?
Nobody lol, the aussie government didn't put a single dollar on the project.

>>714857381
Mainstream ala GTAO, COD, Fortnite etc. Anything that is below is a shitshow with player counts that you could literally tally up on your hands with a ball pen.

>>714858301
I can assure you playing with spics is more interesting than playing against SEA toddlers, skill gap in games and all of that.

Aren't you fags super rich?Why can't you make your own servers?

>>714858314
>What happened to them?
Nothing, you just fell for the image we project. Always been a fucking "wtf government should make that illegal!!!" population.

Do you think Australians are rich because they pay a lot for everything? I'm sure there's rich people in this country, and I've even seen where they live, but I'm not one of them.

>>714858314
The aussies hate their nanny government just as much

>>714858451
there are aussie servers, but games die here if there's not league or fortnite tier players
that's an exaggeration but you get the idea

>>714858451
No, just because our wages are higher doesn't mean shit. We get bent over the barrel for costs of basically fucking everything.
Sometimes it's actually cheaper to book a flight to the states and buy it there then just buy locally.

>>714858498
>Always been a fucking "wtf government should make that illegal!!!" population
Truly, a little slice of Britain on the other side of the globe.

>>714856071 (OP)
very small population, so most servers for most games are dead, unless you like playing with high ping to play against Asians or Americans

the speed of light genuinely isn't fast enough for ping with places far away to be decent

>>714858617
We say that, but go onto fb with boomers when a teenager does something stupid that makes the news.
You'll see so many comments wanting the government to make what they did illegal.

They really don't. This country is full of a whipped pussies who love big brother.

>>714858743
>the speed of light genuinely isn't fast enough

Obviously not, if we have a different gameplay experience when playing with people nearer as opposed to far away countries. Maybe one day they'll invent technology that's even faster; That's my wish for future gamers, as someone who thinks ping is really limiting.
You come to 4chan, and you can talk to people in any country. Can you play with them? Sure, but it'll be laggy. It's so stupid.

>>714858951

I wish we got some kind of radical breakthrough in reducing latency so that I could play against people in other countries more feasibly. So many semi-niche games are just unplayable here because we don't have the playerbase to support it

yeah and with the top player reaction speed being .2 to .4 we are fucked at high level tournament level. That's why we generally only have 1 or 2 world tier capable teams while everyone else gets a shit load of practice. Not that we have won anything from memory.

>>714857968
You would think by now there would be plans for a cable straight to America. 'Allies and all'. But we know Australian big shots aspire to be like the Americans copying the same globalization model and weakening the country on purpose. Immigration still when Houses aren't available or affordable. Time to crank Immigration up they thinks Aussies can stay in rental hell.

Does anyone remember "safety houses" from the 90's?

Kiwi here, Aussies have it better than us on everything they complain about but at least they understand the pain.

That's an almost night and day difference when you run the comparisons.

If you dont immediately live in your state's largest city, getting anywhere else is a 3-6 hour flight or a 16 hour drive.

Oh, I guess we were exactly the same then. There were actually two people I liked in high school, but they eventually left. It's really interesting how different Europeans are to Australians. Europeans aren't nearly as noisy, and that's why I liked talking to them. The descendants of the convicts are the opposite. You can even tell what you're talking to on 4chan.

the little shitgem known as H&H is dominated by a single autistic aussie that runs around with like 400 ping

>>714861419
It surely can't be that bad. Idk it was the recommended ISP by a coworker after a short stint doing IT like 6 years ago and it's been ok with me so far. And at the end of the day ping is more related to distance than anything, it doesn't seem likely that switching to Spark would get me totally different routing to circumvent the speed of light

I'm currently playing Aneurism IV and for some reason Australia has the most dominant server on it next to an American server which has equal numbers. Americans are always playing the game with us pretty frequently on that note, but it is a miracle that we're carrying such a small playerbase game. Any other niche sort of game i haven't had much luck in. Being Australian for most online games sucks on the other hand. I frequently contemplate whether leaving this country would just enhance my whole gaming hobby, means i could finally play with euros.

He was very much right to cut our reliance on Britain for our defence and look to America that decision had good foresight because after WW2 the British Empire collapsed with thanks to America who had a policy of making Britain give up its colonies and even dictating their foreign policy as seen with the Suez Canal Crisis but I'm sure it was all worth it for the poms

I'm not Australian myself but for many mmos companies end up not even bothering with OCE servers or close them after a while. So they end up being forced to play on US West servers with shit ping.

Not really, there's very much the perception that Brits are arrogant dickheads with no manners based on the expats here but I don't think anyone hear outside of Aboriginal sovereign citizens really has any chip on their shoulder about Britain as a whole. Though amusingly my dad told me that he had a beer with a local in London when he and mum were on holiday in the mid-'70s and got told about that "I wouldn't worry too much, we send all our rubbish to you", so it's probably a disproportionate amount of dickheads who come down here.

A lot of us are just dickheads, but Australia was seen as a place you could escape personal problems in the UK back in the 60s-90s, so lots of deadbeat dads, people running from debts, other dodgy dealings etc. just ran away to Australia. But good folk went as well, I have some family in Australia, and they're upstanding sorts.

The CIA literally couped the Australian prime minister in the 1970's, the ensuing puppet government deindustrialised Australia and made it a coal mining colony. Australian is one of the most gynocentric countries in the world.

A peace treaty with Germany would have had Britain beholden to Germany, and Germany under the Nazis were diplomatically very unreliable. The Americans bankrolled Britain in WW2, and held the purse strings post-war. Either way Britain was a spent force.

Britain would've kept its colonies and Germany would've controlled Europe so Britain doesn't lose out since they never controlled Europe the Germans also fight a bitter war with the Russians they may not win so are not a threat in the near term and possibly not one at all

how about not being subservient to anyone, killing the nazis and conducting your own domestic and foreign affairs without the US barging in and telling you what to do?
Also germany never wanted peace under hitler, they were left-wingers and much like the bolsheviks they wanted to have the entire world under their direct commands. Bolsheviks through subterfuge and the 'world-wide revolution of the proletariat and other marginalised classes' and germans through military expansion.

Gough Whitlam was a socialist faggot. I couldn't care less about him. He ushered in the whole multiculturalist/marxist policies of today of importing third world immigrants en masse to our nation. Instrumental in destroying the White Australia policy, not to mention giving abos the vote and counting them in the census. Rot in hell you faggot. Don't idolize traitors.

there's a decent amount of information on it, not really secret

>>714863646
Actually it was Malcolm Fraser the first Jewish PM of Australia who succeeded Whitlam that ended the White Australia Policy although successive governments had weakened it including Whitlam although he still allowed barring people entry into Australia based on nationality rather than race it wasn't until Malcolm Fraser that the White Australia Policy formally ended

Also what about the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact? How is that for a peace offering?

Nah, how about you eat the fucking bombings of Dresden, 2 million raped german women and a castrated nation, you fucking retards. You deserved everything what happened to your country and everything that is currently happening to it (not implying that you're german, you're just a nazi apologist, which is fine when you're like 15.

I'm right-wing, I never said I liked Whitlam.

Here's a not so well known and only recording of Hitler using his natural voice and in it he talks about the negotiations with the Soviets and how he was unwilling to let them dominate the Baltic's and Finland who were German allies and whom Germans defended against the Soviets so it seems that the Germans actions align word with their word

They could, but they won't. Given the delivery method (anywhere on Earth at sea) it wouldn't be feasible to prevent it from being launched, but the UK would never dare to launch independently as it would mean the end of their nuclear deterrent for the long term.

It was really Malcolm Fraser who ended the White Australia Policy even though Whitlam is credited because he removed the racial aspect from it he kept the ability to deny entry and citizenship based on nationality which was largely tied to ethnic and racial groups as the 70's was before the era of the easy and cheap mass movement of people it wasn't until Fraser in 1978 that banning people due to country of origin was ended

From what I've listed, I'd say the worst thing was probably them erasing 30+ million fit white guys from existence. Because it's mostly the fit, the aggressive, the healthy and the young who go to die in wars. Hitler took care of that and killed 30+ million white men who could of been fighting off the invaders of today (muslims, indians, blacks). Hadn't he started the war and just remained a retarded commie dictator until his death I'd probably have no issues with him.

Turned out really well for him. Can you be a german nationalist today without going to jail? Or a white nationalist? We're not talking about the US, where you can actually be either of those things since the US protects your freedom of speech. I'm talking about mainland Europe and the UK.
>Hitler still has nothing to do with it

Churchill also diverted the Australian 7th infantry who were on their way home from North Africa to defend to instead go to defend Burma

>Curtin’s decision that the Australian troops should be returned home proved correct. The Australian soldiers would have arrived in Rangoon on 26 February 1942, by which time the Japanese were already in position to take the city.

>Rangoon fell on 7 March, the same day Japanese forces invaded Lae and Salamaua and initiated the New Guinea campaign to the immediate north of Australia.

The Migration Act' of 1973 is what ended it, which Whitlam was behind. I'm not sure why you're trying to cover for Whitlam's arse here but it looks strange. You probably just want him to be a hero because you saw some cable from wokeileaks (the julian assange operation) and think he was le bad ass because he had a run in with the CIA. Rather than accepting the fact that he was disaster for this country.

Australia has tens of thousands of square kilometres of arable land but it's owned by trillionares and banks. Our government doesn't give a shit about our industry and self reliance just 4 years of cash grabs at a time. Even if 90 percent of it is unsuitable for farming and crops it doesn't matter because the place is gigantic.

Sydney is the closest thing that Australia has to Gotham City. Like 90% of Australian organized crime originates from/is based there.

Melbourne is just faggot central and nowadays its absolutely flooded with chinks and jeets. White Australians are actively fleeing the place to move into rural areas because it's that fucking bad whereas like 20 years ago it used to be the place to live in Victoria.

>>714868723

>>714856071 (OP)
The playerbase in most games are great. With the caveat that you be able to handle the bantz. If you aren't a pussy it's pretty good, the best even. Just imagine western civility without the eu/na fuck mentality, for the most part. Offline Aussies can be pretty cucked.
Problem is, the population is very low. Anything but the biggest games have population issues and because of geography, connecting to any other servers suck.

>>714870904
Honestly, it's the same stateside. If I wanna play with some real dudes I either have to hit up Squad/ARMA or Counter Strike Source servers. You can find small groups of actual bros in some more private communities for other games. But it's like pulling nails with your teeth just to get invited into the club.

Does Australia still manufacture holdens?

>>714875935
No. Holden closed up shop about a decade ago.
Most of it was just rebadged GM rubbish anyway.

I've been playing Mecha Break recently. There is no Australia or Oceania region, just an Asia-Pacific region. This means I am at the mercy of the game deciding whether to put me in an Australian match with 70 ping or if it decides matchmaking is going to slow so it'll shunt me into some fucking South Korean match with 220 ping.

Small population means that games are either entirely unplayable or that it is impossible to avoid the resident shitbuckets who have done nothing but mainline one particular game for a decade. The Australian multiplayer scene is like a crucible, American servers would be a goddamned holiday to me if they weren't so blasted laggy.

Future? It's the present. As of 2023, only 48% of "Australians" had Australian parents. That was BEFORE the government signed the deal that opened the border to India.

The vast majority of non-australians had British parents at that point until the infinity indians gambit

Not really. The Commodore (and it's variants) was the only vaguely ours, and even then a lot of it was GM parts.
The Ford Falcons were way more Australian.

You aren't disproving my point.

I used to love fighting games BlazBlue and Melty mostly but gave up on playing them because of the lack of playerbase for anything other than Street Fighter and the ping problems, but I gave Idol Showdown a go a while back and it actually ran incredibly well for me playing with my seppo mates. First time I'd experienced rollback netcode, that shit is like magic.

games die here faster than anywhere else
battlefield games get reduced to MAYBE 1 server only a year or so after launch
i know that xdefiant(yeh i know) was DEAD as in you literally coudnt match with another player thats how few people were playing less than 6 months from launch
so even if you want to play a game online you have to have about 100 other people also playing the same game so games can start/end/be in lobby/menu and have it feel functional
less than that and you just wait around for the 1 game that is actually able to be played
i remember playing bf4 during a time where there was 1 server that only had about 5 free spots because people would reserve place
so if you got in you had to stay in or not be able to play for potentially the whole day.
so most people just play the online games they KNOW will have a large population
there is no market for small online games, because why get invested when in 6 months the game will be unplayable regardless of how many people in the rest of the world are playing it

average shipping price is like $15-20
but if you want something from america or eu(thats not from amazon) it could easily be $150+ or $300+ for a big package
also some chinese companies will hold your package on ransom demanding you pay an "out of range delivery fee" or something like that basically if you dont live 20 minutes from a depot they say its "out of range" and you have to pay another like $100
