What makes you think that is a lag switch? |

Well, no way that could have been random chance then  |

You believe that CCP's game servers are designed to update their internal model to take into account late updates from one client, even when they have sent that state to other clients?
I suppose it is possible they have built it that way, but wouldn't that create a game in which the advantage goes to the player with the slowest connection?

yes. And your point is? Consider: this game is made in iceland. Do they want to optimize for high speed, low-latency connections, or medium speed high-latency connections? I'm thinking the second one.
I suspect you are trolling, but anyway....
If they wanted to optimise for high-latency connections, why would they distribute battleservers across multiple continents rather than run everything out of their existing UK data centre?

Lag switching is when you create a disruption in the outbound transmission of your network packets by introducing a interruptable circuit into your transmission wires. It can most definitley work on a dedicated server, provided the server is tolerant of out of order packet transmission and has significant threshhold for packet receipt delays, both of which UDP networking can and often does support. Please do a little research on a subject before you say that something isn't possible when it actually is lol Conversely they could just be downloading files on the PS3 purposefully to create lag, it's the same principle
In response to this I thought I'd do a little more research and found this...

Wow, do you guys even know what lag-switching is? The activity that you are describing is standbying, not lag switching. Lag switching is when you create a disruption in the outbound transmission of your network packets by introducing a interruptable circuit into your transmission wires.

Please do a little research on a subject before you post how someone "doesn't know what they're talking about."
Thought it was quite amusing
