[SOLVED] Huge lag playing….age of empires 2

August 1st, 2016

I was playing with my friend this great “new” game (AOE 2) at my lan (wireless router), well all the ports are open, etc. So in the middle of the game, we are attacking the enemies and there was “normal” lag….okay……but it started to get more lags and the last lag was “forever” (none of us was able to play anymore) and the game came with one window about resign, continue or save.
we both choosed “continue” but nothing happened, so we needed to quit. (after one of us quit, the other was able to play again without the eternal lag).
so, someone got one idea about this problem? we both are using vista (yeah it works on vista) and it was wireless (both playing using notebooks)

Answer #1
First of all, try disabling the Anti-Virus while you play. Also, close any programs that you do not use while playing.
Answer #2
I�ll try it the next time that we will try to play (maybe tomorrow).
I was wondering if it could be the “wireless thing” or the multi-core processing of one old game
