O.P. Lag
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.

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.
