GAME LAGS! High ping but internet connection ok !

[WhoRainZone]

hi
i just bought this game and played it a little bit online.

When i play with more other player it starts to lag like crazy. Usually i can play some secounds and then there is a big lag. Its like frozen (sound and the screen).

Then it continues and everything is very fast for some secounds. Then everything freezes again... The game says my ping is like >10000!

But i cannot imagine that my internet is the reason for this! Internet speed checks show that my internet is as fast as it should be!

So what can be reasons for this!!!?!

I NEED HELP...seriously !

thanks

correction: it says that my "offset" (ping) is > 10000

Graphics settings! Do lower

its not the grapic settings. i cant imagine that
sometimes it works. and other times it does not!

Believe me: its not the graphic stuff. i know how that would be like.

i forgot to say:

when i start the game everything in the menue is normal.

when i connect to an internet server everything becomes very very slow. even when i disconnect from the server the whole menue is still slow !

it is definetly NOT possible to play like that !its less than 1FPS!!!!! when it starts to lag!

im not happy about buying this game
