ping issues?

[Meanator]

So I went through the server list and all them were a ping of 700-1000, is the servers running on a weak connection or was this not ment for candians O_o
when I check out servers on other survival games I get at least 40 ping so it's definitly not my computer.

The highest Ping on my Serverlist is a Server from Australia, im from Germany, ping is ~ 400

If all servers are high ping, that's going to be more to do with your connection than the game. Servers are hosted by independent parties and have nothing to do with Wurm Unlimited's publisher or creators. They're on all kinds of hosts with all kinds of ISPs, therefore logically speaking the evidence points heavily toward an issue locally to you.

Mine is in a large datacenter on a backbone connection in Ontario, so my bet would be something else was downloading, someone was watching a movie, usually if you think nothing else is going on, windows is the culprit doing its windows 10 updates. You can turn them off (not recommending it but i know most hate it) by setting your connection as a metered connection, then in update advanced options make sure it is turned off where it says download updates even on a metered connection (why it takes 2 places I have no idea).

Windows 10 is just crap - I will /never/ upgrade from 8.1 :P

That line, sir, has been around as long as computers have had operating systems. :)
