Yes its running off a host machine. Thats why I was telling you that LOUISVILLE server isnt very good lag-wise talking .... very often people that run servers from their own machines, servers cannot be very busy. Only with 2 peeps in it, the ping shows 75 on the scoretab, but in reality the ping is 175, because there is A LOT of packet loss ....... when a few people join, the ping goes even higher and it lags even more, almost not playable...... Thats why we pay to a specialized company to host our stand alone game server, they have machines that are especially made for running a game server and extra fast internet connection supporting the full bandwidth even though if 20 peeps play it shouldnt lag more than if there was 2 peeps, etc.
