Is game freezing a lot for everyone today?

I've never had to restart my CB this much before...

Blame the sharks.

And dolphins as master minds.

The game takes some time to load, no big deal. I suggest spectating 1-2 Arena matches and wait for the game to become smoother.

Or you could join the first 2 matches and expect a laggy outcome.

Turning Custom Skins off doesn't seem to help, though.

Hopefully my graphics card is not dieing. The game would start lagging randomly near the end of my match before I can even complete it.

Wow. My game starts to lag when I'm just in the area doing tuning...

i still remember CS talking about how much grafiq memory used with memory size, S/M/L/XL.

XL make you smooth but in the end i just eat so much ram more than 1GB, im once reaching 1,9GB ram used because XL.

M balances memory use.

hard to explain this but try the S, M, L, or XL memory choose which one make you smooth. also don't mark the stages shadow.

I've had to back off from XL as of 2 months ago because when mem usage hits 1GB, the client either locks or goes POOF.

Aw crap I had mine on S lol. I just moved it to XL since i have 16 gb. wel'l see if this helps

If the problem is in your internet connection maybe you could try wtfast. At least it works for me. If you are using it as a free user, sometimes choosing the server as where you live is better than the auto-select thingy.
