If you keep joining games that are laggy when you hit the "play now" button, follow these steps:

Find the folder EA Games in your program files
Click Battlefield Heroes
Click mods
Click bfheroes
Click Settings
Click EABackend
Click PlayNow
Once you open that a notepad file will come up. Scroll all the way to the bottom and find "rem PlayNowSettings.setMaxAllowedLatency" (the very last line) and change the value after it to something smaller.

I had mine at 100 for awhile and just decided to lower it down to 75. 50 should be ok but i wouldn't suggest going much lower because I assume you will have a hard time finding a server with any value lower than that.

Hope this helps.

How did you figure this out?

And, thanks for posting in the recruiting topic dashiz

I remember seeing it on the BFH forums and just took me awhile to figure out where it was again.

And I've been meaning to post somethin in the recruiting topic, just finally did. I think we all should keep that topic as active as possible. That's how I find out about the 13th and I think a lot more people would check us out if we were constantly posting there. I have a couple of other ideas to help recruiting on BFH as well. I'll make a topic soon and see if we can brainstorm some ideas on how to get this place bumpin.

Alright thanks! Yeah, it definitely gets us a lot, if not, most of our recruits for BFH.

I think the best strategy to do this is not say "bump" but, reply to the topic of how things went [well] at a little event or if maybe someone is a new XO or something.

And thanks dashiz!
