When ever i play a game i always lag. Sometimes the lag is so bad it makes the game crash when ever i play. But while everyone elses games dont crash. So i was wondering does anyone have any tips/ideas for me on how to get rid of some of the lag?

Get a faster connection, don't have unnesessary programs running in the background, set your game settings down lower.

Cable? You need a faster upload speed probably.

Discrate, wait for some of the aussie members to come online, they'll help you in picking an ISP (-dt-;Chris Boulton;lordy16...)

To reduce lag, try playing on servers located closer to you on the internet.
It's pretty dodgy that a game is crashing from lag though.
