Right now your ISP talks directly to server .ru when you log on.

When you're in a game,  your ISP is talking directly to the players isp.

A vpn is like a middle man. Your traffic first goes though the vpn server, then gets forwarded to the .ru server and back through the vpn to you. It's all encrypted which makes it more secure and depending on the vpn, can allow fix lag/hosting issues

Hey Brook, if you can convince your cafe manager to let you run a VPN for when you play War2, pm me and I can help you out. Zugzug
