Hi Lee Hoe Mun,
We believed that the ping is within the acceptable range wherein you can have a smooth gaming experience.
Thank you
Hello Maxis,
With all the respect, when someone complains to you about your service, it means the user/consumer is not satisfy with the service provided right. In this case A gamer who is experiencing a ping of more than 100ms. Let's put in an average ping of 150ms shall we ? Now say we're playing a match with a 150ms ping, not only does the delay can be felt badly, the players action/skill cast is delayed by a good 1 or 1.5 seconds which is really the difference between winning or losing. Now that the main point is said, I would like to add on with ping spike. When playing a game or any game, chances are gamers will tell you they experience before a sudden ping spike. And this ping spike is not like 50ms or 100ms, but a ridiculous 500ms - 1000ms ping. With this sort of ping, it renders a player useless, sometimes even disconnecting at peak stages of gameplay. Mind you latency is so important even graphic card and monitors manufactured today are fitted with low latency enhancement. Gaming peripherals and hardware manufacturer are building High quality low latency hardware because they know every millisecond of ping counts and that will be the difference between winning or losing. As an ISP, you should know the facts as you're part of the game also. Only this time the real world game. Don't you like it if your (maxis fibre) latency is lower than your competitors ? I mean common sense would tell you if you can achieve this and prove it to the market , you can have more subscribers opting for Maxis home Fibre am I right ?
So maxis customer service,
when you have a user/consumer complaining don't just sit down and tell users what's best for them. Instead get on your feet and start finding a solution for your problem. If you think we customers are a joke, no worries then. Heck we have a ton of user complaining in this forum too. Treat your customers right and be rewarded at the end. Don't let this small mishap be taken up straight to higher authority.
Thank you and have a nice day maxis cs.
PS: I'm using home Fibre service as well and I fully understand the problems of my fellow LYN's because I'm experiencing it too. Everyday.
