That's why you have guys here saying they've not experienced it. And that's probably the case, they either haven't experienced it or haven't noticed it. Saying that it's about high latency is basically just stating the obvious. Yes, it is a problem of high latency. That's what, in essence, provides these situations. If the hit registration is client sided, it's going to cause problems on servers where the population has pings that vary a lot. That's where these sort of things happen more frequently. So if there's someone in a server that consistently kills you instantly, you can bet that they have a ridiculously high ping. If people are killing you before you see them popping out of cover, it's probably a case of them having a ridiculously low ping. That's how it works and it sucks balls. Not only because it's client sided, but because players are not kept in sync properly. Yes, BF3 might be a very ... |
