D@mn, today I played 6 3v3 games and the 5 went OOS. What's happening? Do you guys get those or it is just me.

Not just you.
Sierra (EE - don't mean to go on... lol) reckoned the oos errors were down to cheating. As in, you have spent more resources than you have earned - ie/or you were pulling some hack on the game files.
I would be interested to know what ES think are the reasons for this error.

I doubt the cheating story. For those of you who played AoK when it first came out, you will remember how bad the netcode was. The 1.01 patch that just came out this week addressed this specific issue.

But the point is that the OOS doesn't happen early in the game. In about 20-30 in-game of play, so that means that something happens later in the game and I doubt someone tryes to use a trainer.

I never go out of sync because I am playing against my own PC.

Of the approximately 7 games I played last night, 5 went OOS, and the other two didn't because they were 2 vs 2 and ended in 15 minutes anyways.

During the beta test of AoC's 1.0b patch, there was a theory that a big difference in CPU speed between the comps in the game increased the chance of getting an OOS. I don't know of this theory was ever proven or disproven though.
