monkeybrains Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 When playing key quest, there are people that can break down the doors in the faerie one before they even get to the first red thing. And in the petpetpet catching they get all the bugs before I can make a line. Please tell me, are they cheating somehow or not? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*SG* Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 Honestly it's probably lag on your part. I would suspect that before cheating. I've learned that Opera runs the flash much faster. I thought my system didn't lag too badly but then I played against our infamous Xepha and she way-layed on me and she flew through everything. So then I realized that my system just wasn't running as fast as it could. That could very well be your case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Siba Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 Nope, they're not cheating. In the petpetpet game I used to almost always not be able to make a circle cause they'd always beat me, but now I usually beat everybody ahaha XD (wellll I not only improved but I also got a faster internet connection) You can visit the Key quest message boards, sometimes there are people who are looking to play with people who have key quest run slow on their end.

The Darkest Faerie Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 Like me. :yes: I hate having to leave because of lag. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkeybrains Posted December 25, 2008 Author Share Posted December 25, 2008 Thanks everybody. Now I knwo that they are being fair, but my computer is just extremely bad. Honestly I think that I'd rather have them be cheating than having an extremely slow computer, but It's nice to know that they can't cheat.

Corinne Posted December 26, 2008 Share Posted December 26, 2008 If any of you have a laptop I would rather use the laptop than the computer beacuse laptops take it kinda fast,but if your laptop needs to download stuff its either yes or no but i would use a laptop For playing Keyquest ^_^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheUnknown Posted December 26, 2008 Share Posted December 26, 2008 Lag can be one of the causes. I find a quick refresh of the page after a game helps if it begins to lag. :) People are also saying it's RAM. And that people with more RAM technically have an advantage in that their computer runs faster, but I can't say for sure. :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Siba Posted December 26, 2008 Share Posted December 26, 2008 I have 4.00 GB RAM but key quest does lag a lot of times, probably because of my internet speed. So internet speed is important also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DiamondZ Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 Well on my half i'd say they are cheating i don't really care if they break down doors before they get ot them o still win somtimes but as soon as the petpetpet game starts i get no chance to even make a line before they get one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unstream Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 Well on my half i'd say they are cheating i don't really care if they break down doors before they get ot them o still win somtimes but as soon as the petpetpet game starts i get no chance to even make a line before they get one That may be because of internet speed. I have a pretty fast internet, and I usually circle all of the petpetpets before anyone else. Like usually the score would be -High # of Points- to 0. If anything, I'd say it'd be the internet speed. I'm not sure of RAM has anything to do with it. It might, but it also might not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChaoticFission Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 a souped up video card also helps :) i would say it's a mix of high-speed internet + CPU speed + ram + video card Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*SG* Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 To add to what Chaotic said another thing is to make sure your system is cleaned up and tuned up so that you don't have a lot of extras bogging you down. You can have the most powerful comp in the world but if you are running too much for it, all the speed in the world wont help. I recommend Tune-Up Utilities. It's a simple 1 click fix that will optimize and help clean up your system and it's not overpriced for what it does. (Swears by it) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChaoticFission Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 also, i've noticed that when i use firefox with a few tabs open, it starts to really eat away at the memory. firefox can spike my cpu to 100%... and that's not an easy task on my cpu :D if you're using firefox, restart your browser after around 5 games.

The Darkest Faerie Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 I had something wierd happen... I was a common player of KQ before... well, I had a few tabs open and it ate away at my memory. Then when I closed it, I didn't clear the Temporary Internet Files and it jumped back up to over a gig on the C drive. :S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DiamondZ Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 I have a very fast internet speed with epic RAM but still won't make a difference. SInce my cousins is better i tryed on his and does the same thing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChaoticFission Posted December 28, 2008 Share Posted December 28, 2008 well, having an NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT definitely doesn't hurt my performance :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob_the_Bunny Posted December 28, 2008 Share Posted December 28, 2008 You're so lucky! Mine's only a Dell Inspiron 1150. Which is an almost ancient fossil in computer years. For me, I find closing the browser after 2 or so games keeps it from lagging too much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkeybrains Posted December 28, 2008 Author Share Posted December 28, 2008 I tried it on a different comp, the petpetpet thing was just lag, but the doors with the faerie thing, it wasn't lag. I don't know how they could get to the middle of the maze before I get to the first door... Everything else was lag, but this I don't know what it is. And they weren't even there either. That is what makes no sense. I also found another one. I get to thebottom of daring dig and they are at the top and they somehow win with 27 points. Sometimes they even go through the dirt. Ummm, is that pic a photoshop, or did you somehow win 1mil np from keyquest? This post has been edited by a member of staff (Mistletoe Morgan) because of a violation of the forum rules.
