Still getting random groups of spikes now and then, but they are not near as extreme and game breaking as before and normally dont last too long. I took some cellphone photos of my PC monitor during some spikes that just happened, while I had the in game cursor mousing over the ping bar so I could see the tool tip. My normal ping is around 137ms give or take, during this recent group of ping spikes it went from 137 to 684, to 964, to 336, to 656, to 188, to 1032, then back to normal. So far it seems stable again staying between about 80ms to as high as 170ms, and everything is running good. If someone can tell me a way to put the photos I took I can provide them here if you want. Other then these random small spikes now and then, it does seem to be running better as there hasnt been any of the huge spikes recently.
Thank you all again for all of the hard work bringing back VG SoH!

Having a group of ping spikes, ranging from my normal ping around 120 to 130, then spiking up to random numbers of high ping at 234, 624, 343, 983, and several other random high ping amounts. I just checked my internet speed even with this browser open and logged into game, and my connection is as strong as ever in fact its stronger then what Im paying for on the downloads...dont tell my cable company haha...346.71 Mbps down, 31.68 Mbps up. So Im not sure whats going on, this is the only game out of many I run that does this. Just a heads up on the situation, will keep updating as more spikes happen. The good news again, is that the monster spikes have not happened in a while, those that were 4000, 7000, sometimes 9000 or more. These are much smaller, and cause trouble but at least not as severe and normally dont last too long.
