Ping and dammage .

Well I have noticed that ping has an effect on the damage a gun will do.
Less ping = more damage while high ping = low damage .
I noticed it when my ping spikes .So long my ping is at it`s normal level I can kill at close range with 2/3 hits using a QBZ . But if the ping moves up to 300+ it would take me 4/5 hits to get the kill , and over 500 no damage will be register. unless the opponent stand still for a while, and even tho it would take more tha 10 bullets to get the kill .

  • Right. This IS a ping issue, but not as you seem to think.

    The low pinging character is not where you see it, due to your high ping.
    This usually means you miss entirely, or in your case (doing LESS damage, but at least some), hitting a limb such as legs or arms.

    Also try playing more passively, as it takes longer for your bullets to register with the server.

    Just try it on immobile targets and you'll see what I mean.
  • This is the same reason why you may see people complaining about laggers aswell. One mooore thing, this is also where people get the term "tanking" which means (at least in game speak) to seemingly absorb someone's shot(s) and take no damage.
  • When did the QBZ kill at 2 shots to the body? >_<
  • I lol'ed xD

    It's because you lag, the person isn't where you see him, so you just miss or hit an arm or a leg :/

    And ... how come QBZ 2hitkill? :/

  • Meh, to me its more like

    "oh there comes someone rushing mid"
    "pew"
    "easy awp pick" -> while his body is driven backwards on my screen due to the bullet.
    "oh wait hes still running"
    "pewpepwepwpepwpewppewpepwpewpepwpepwpew whole m12 clip"
    me dead

    Lol Dot , i know all this . I am not a new comer to CF , I have been playing since it was Suba . and what I am talking about has nothing to do with a moving target , either towards you or from left to right and vice versa . an example . " I am on a box and someone down ( GM ) trying to hit me . if my ping is normal I will kill him in no time , but if my ping is piking and goes over 300 it will takes me more hit to kill the opponent and if it`s 500+ then I will never kill him and I will die even if I would have emptied a whole clip on him".
    So where is the fact that the player is not at the place i saw him ? Where has he gone if not at the bottom at of the box ?
    By the way , i already did the test you are talking about . since a year ago. Now try the same as you said on a none moving player ( friend ) shoot him at medium range with any rifle , note the damage it does then give the same gun to a high Pinger and let him shoot the same friend at same distance ine the same room and see whether the damages are the same .
    Have fun testing things like me xd :)

    Tanking can be on any side ( high or low ping user ) I am around 200 and never any one got problem to kill me, i am even an easy kill lol . " I say this cause many people thinks that it`s the high ping that tanks a lot ." It`s more usual that the low ping who tanks the bullets of the high ping.
  • When did the QBZ kill at 2 shots to the body? >_<
    It does if the player is not moving at short range " test made "

    Read further up and learn more about ping and stop repeat things you hear like a parrot , xd
    And ... how come QBZ 2hitkill?
    Come join me in a room and I show how it takes 2 bullets with qbz to kill someone .
  • damage has nothing to do with ping

    your bullets just aren't hitting

    the qbz will still do the same damage per hit with 10 ping as with 100 and etc
    this is true for any gun

    I talked about the QBZ cause I used it to make the test . I could have used an AK as well or a M12s.
    By the way have you done the test yourself ? have you tried to shoot with 500 ping ? If not then don`t say the opposite of what I stated. Read further up the other posts. , Thanks
  • when i have 20 ping takes 2-4 hits with the m16 but 60-90 takes way more like 6-7 whats with that my ping only increased a little bit
  • When someone has different ping! Is in another time ... So he kills before you see him!

    And after he say: Jojojo noob!

    Simple.

    OMFG!!! YOU ARE GIVING ADVICE TO LAGGERS ON HOW TO KILL NON LAGGING PLAYERS,WHY DONT YOU TELL HIM TO TRY AND FIND A SERVER WITH THE BEST PING? OR TO STOP DOWNLOADING SHIIT WHILE PLAYING? HOW BOUT YOU MODS AND GMs START MAKING SOME CHANGES LIKE IMPLEMENTING PING CONTROL AND MAKE OUR LIVES A LOT EASIER?
  • That's why I try to play only with AWM in TD. If I hit him once it's enough.

    My friend , or better YOU MAJESTY THE NOOB . Why are you bothering your head about the laggers ( you don`t even know the meaning of lag or when lag begin to occur in a game , please don`t open your mouth like a parrot just because you heard people talking about lag ).
    The best thing you can do , is to Go to Z8 and see the admin and ask him to stop their advertisements on internet " Internet is world wide and not belong to one country only." without the adv. on my personal blog I would not have been here to smell your shi.....ty breath spreading around . It`s not our fault if we are far from the server , but the fault of Z8 to make advertisement where they don`t have servers to give a good service the the targeted customers .
    Last solution for you if you don`t like all the high ping players that Z8 has invited , is to simply press Esc -enter-enter and move to another room where you don`t find one or quit CF , if those solution does not fit you then buy yourself some tooth paste . thanks to speak far from me if you still can`t buy one tube of such a thing.
  • Clearly, you are too angry to learn much of anything or to be reasonable. Ping will not reduce your bullet damage. The only things that will do that are armor and boxes/wooden objects. And yes I have tested this before.
