someone explain this to me...

im pretty ****ed right now, but this is not a QQ post.
im ****ed cuz a lot of my shots dont register.
for example, I slash some one with KRIS XMAS in the head, no damage done
for example, I headshot someone with AWM CAMO, no damage done
for example, I shoot someone in the body 5 times with M4A1 CC, no damage done.
WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
this doesnt seem to make any senses at all, is this somehow related to my ping?
my ping is 94 (alpha/delta) 82 (south) 23 (west)
this only happens in alpha and south, rarely in west.
but when i snipe in west, after i get into cover I die (late kills, not wallers)
THIS IS JUST SOOO DAMN ANNOYING!!!

The cover and die thing is so annoying

It's likely not your ping, but theirs. The game has to synchronize everyone despite widely varying ping times. It's customary for online fps games to use prediction code in order to try and keep everything running smoothly. Unfortunately sometimes it causes people to be in different places than you see them. As far as the server is concerned, that player you shot is actually a few paces away from you.

Try to attack people either head on or from behind. Side shots are much harder when this sort of thing happens.

It's all ping difference.

Your opponent lags, I like how he says "not a QQ post"

nvm that :rolleyes:

On Topic - Ping isn't a problem to me unless it hits 200 or more

Also when the Dev's made this game I guess they couldn't make registering (shots) better..

I don't think they expected such latency differences for the regions they intended for CF. Most of the others will rarely have a lagger, and that lagger is usually me. lol Otherwise it seems like their gameplay is smooth.

Generally at the 140+ mark you get noticeable tanking.

yeah they thought people who live in NA/UK will play this CF, not LA or Europe..
