Ghosts Chance Inf4m0us 533	Posted - 2013.12.22 13:10:00 - [1] - Quote as we all know NYAN SAN has started doing a rather..... exploitive stratagy in certain maps to win without having to rely on skill. mostly the new research facility but they can use it on most maps since they know how it works. good news folks, as long as you know where they are trying to set up their great and powerful LAG bomb you can put an end to them rather easily! in the research facility they ALWAYS head to the pwoer core obejctive (the one with the supply depot underground) they will use any trick they can to get there and set up the lag bomb, so make sure you get there first to kill their scout. if you stop them from taking the city off the bat their stage 2 is a dropship with an uplink loaded squad will head to above the Beta bridge, once their they will imediatly try to retake that damn supply depot, if you have an RE user in your squad make sure they pre mine that damn room so that if they get a foothold their a flick of the detonator and a few quick fluxes returns them back to the roof. once that doesnt work they will resort to mini lag bombs, and while not as effective as the big boy you WILL feel it. pack LOTS of fluxes, half their squad will be logis with 3-4 sets of rep hive equipments and they will dance on that thing all day long, but are VERY afraid of moving out of it, use that to your advantage. they will find a small room somewhere on the outside edge of the city near that damn supply depot to start the lag cycle. another thing to note is that their early game is dominated and consumed with getting that lag bomb in place, so the home objective is EASILY held by a single member of your team. giving you a decent lead that you can rely on if they gain a bigger foothold in the city. if they get that lag bomb off its pretty much game, and you will have to rely on that early lead to carry you through the last half of the game, after their lag bomb is set they only leave about 3 in the city, and they set out to hold an outside objective with 2-3 of their squad. its pretty sad when a corp has to resort to this kind of extreme exploit. and i know that there are alot of corps out there that have outright refused to even fight against it. but its HILARIOUS when you can stop the lag bomb, undernieth the exploits they arnt all that great. if any of them are reading this, i ask you.... if this is what you have to do to win, whats the point?

Is a fix due anytime soon? im aware of this becuase im very observant :P if it works in one location but not in another i ask myself WHY :P why is its greatest effect in small rooms? why doesnt it work with hundreds of proxes and remotes from a squad of 6 but works with nanohives? the key to the bug is the ECHO effect, you need to create that giant feedback echo loop in a small space :P 40 hives in a spot is loud and buggy. those same 40 hives in a small room with echo effects crashes the damn map. i figured it out by watching the enemy team trying to set it up, where it was always set up. then testing to see if it was only nanohives or any equipment. and its nanos in particular that make things bad. you cant set up the same lag loop with uplinks or anything else, just nanos. it took CCP 7 months to fix rendering.... do YOU think theres a fix coming soon? they should jsut remove the damn echo effect till they can figure out why its crashing maps.

John Demonsbane Unorganized Ninja Infantry Tactics League of Infamy 801	Posted - 2013.12.22 13:50:00 - [11] - Quote Let's be honest, Nyain San, while deservedly famous for sh!t tactics and all around douchebaggery, are not the only people who do this. I built a suicide RE/flux Combo BPO fit specifically to combat it the other night. I think it's intentional, there is no other reason for 10+ pieces of equipment to be in there. Two fluxes got me 75 WP for equipment destruction the other night. Equipment caps are an iffy thing, but the best fix, aside from addressing the lag problem in general, is to put a radius around installations where equipment doesn't work.

Piraten Hovnoret No Tax Scrubs 132	Posted - 2013.12.22 14:19:00 - [15] - Quote In this map that suply depo is kind of key to win ( or at least a inportant strategic spot ) It's not strange that ppl putt down stuff to help defending it. Take it in domination mode one team holds the point one team gold the suply. DOWN With rep Hives and links and the nade SPAM begins. Then BOMM orbital on A and the guys at the supply takes over sence u can't orbital the supply. I am also al for a cap on dropping sh-ít arownd supply depot... However should we bann rephives close to it also and don't let the team holding a supply use em but ppl that are attacking can use em? In FW this is a non issue sence pints don't get orbitals any way. So if you box en in that supply let stay there and hold the point. So what am I saying? Idk maybee fix so the game don't LAG insted of crying for a nerf al the time.

Anyways, I hopefull Fox and Null understand that equipment spam must be fixed. the last game i played against them when they did this it most certainly WAS intentional, theres not other explanation for their movements and actions in the game up untill they got that damn lag bomb in place. when their entire squad will fight THAT hard to obtain a position that ISNT an objective forsaking 3 other objectives entirely for that single point you know somethings up. not only that but after they diddnt get that depot they started setting mini lag bombs in other similarly closed in spaces near that depot to try to gain an advantage to gain the depot. eventually those small lag bombs were enough to lag to the point where blues were easyer to clean up aparently and they took the big one and immediatly set up that reverb filled room of headachy death and defended it like a mofo before they bothered taking or moving to any objectives and then defending it with half their squad like it was the most important position int he world. also becuase of server hosting if you know that the FW game is hosted in your region you can lag out your oponent more then you, making it so that you can still move but they cant :P leaving only people on the other team who are also on that server free to move. this is well known around the community for the most part, basically anyone who does it, fights against it, or like me studies it.
Ghosts Chance Inf4m0us 535	Posted - 2013.12.22 14:41:00 - [17] - Quote im also aware of those other threads exploring the topic, they provided very useful data during my testing phase. special thanks to everyone who worked hard to figure out the lag problems in the gmae, their data was invaluble to the project. its a wierd kinda combo issue at play, since there are many sources of lag, the key to the lag bomb seems to be understanding what exactly those sources are to minimise all other sources of lag for your squad, while setting off the lag bomb to create the disaparety between teams. the chat and otehr sound issues (chats, explosives, tanks, etc) are contributing to the lag bomb as the team using the lag bomb will avoid the other sources of lag while taking advantage of different servers + the enamy not avoiding other sources of lag. this means that while both teams have to contend will the lag from the bomb itself, only one team will have to contend with the alturnate sources of lag, leaving one side to still move relativly freely. in the counter game against nyan san my squad was avoiding other sources of lag, so i was actually able to move freely after the bomb hit, so i was able to do hit and runs within the city with my quad to clean up some of their mess, but they defeneded that damn supply depot with their whole squad, i was even able to take back half the city becuase of that insistance on defending that bomb.

YOU may not purposly place equipment in optimal locations for lag, that doesnt mean that its not being used by others for that purpose.

Having a radius set for nano hives is a good idea. What is bad about it is that REAL logis sometimes deploy a ammo hive and a triage hive strategically as they push a point with their squad or near a choke point behind cover in defense. It has negative consequences for those that actually logi, but as Lorak said above. I like to be able to move. Remove time in battle from ISK payout formula and provide a bonus to winning team...

Ryme Intrinseca 398	Posted - 2013.12.22 17:05:00 - [31] - Quote I don't play the game anymore, partly due to lag, in PC especially. There are really two issues: 1. The lag itself. The problem is mostly due to tons of equipment sound effects and animations piled on top of one another. A hotfix is therefore easy - just remove the equipment sound effects and animations, at least for PC and maybe FW. Restore them only when a proper fix is available (if that's never, fine - performance is more important than glitter). 2. The benefit lag confers on one side. Some of the posters seem to be very na+»ve about how lag works. The lag for the side that wins the server is much smaller than the lag for the side that loses the server. Coupled with this is the fact that corps from 'a certain region' always win the server, due to their geographical location. The upshot is that they can reduce the opposition to unplayable frame rates while retaining reasonable FPS themselves. This definitely is a tactic; 'equipment' is just the Dust word for 'lagswitch'. If the lag itself can't be fixed, CCP could at least randomize server selection, so the lagmasters don't have this unfair advantage over their opponents every game. This whole game-breaking issue is laughably easy to fix - how hard can it be to simply turn off the equipment sound/animation? CCP just don't give a ****.
