bug or cheat #2

(ToonBE) #1

The previous one could be explained? What about this one (I was not lagging):

Even though you didn’t experience abnormal lags, all games have small latency issues. This is probably just a difference between you crouching and standing; well within the ~50ms, a random arbitrary number I just picked.

In any case, the enemy player was most likely shooting at you when you were standing (within his view).

after those latency kills i always spam “meet you on LAN, nub”

There are definately a few latency issues and not all down to ping. I’ve had mutual kills (where my victim and I kill each other with hitscan weapons simultaneously) several times, and ping doesn’t matter (everyone has a higher ping than me pretty much but sometimes the difference is no more than 20 ms). I’ve never experienced this in any other game.

I’m pretty sure I saw it happen in BF4. I think this particular mechanism is fun, and it never bothers me.

Agreed, it is funny when it happens :). Not played BF4.

Haven’t played BF4 either, but I saw a shoutcast where this specific instance was mentioned. I think its just a side-effect of the highly desirable switch in hit detection to the client’s side.
