Another potential rubberbanding cause is a poor internet connection. If you are connected through a WiFi connection instead of a wired connection, chances are you may likely to experience a rubberbanding problem. Having old drivers installed in your PC (specifically for your graphics card and/or network adapter) can also be one of the causes. Rubberbanding can also be caused by improper installation of the game or if your game has corrupted files.
You might think this is because of your network connection or your ISP - although this can be true, that is not always the case. Rubberbanding in online games like Homeworld 2 is caused by different factors.
