So I'm a scout with a sniper rifle, and it seems that the mechanics have changed slightly.
If someone is standing stationary and the dot is red, I'll take a shot, but there won't be the "you hit them" X, but it almost seems like there is a "deflect" off of their shield. This happens when someone is running as well, and it will hit them, but again, no red X and the "deflection" looking thing.
Also, shots I would have made 2 weeks ago don't seem to be sticking as of last week and this week. Were mechanics changed at all, or do I just need to try harder? :)

Not as far as I've heard. Maybe you're lagging more lately? Did something change with your Internet? |

Shouldn't be Internet, but I'll run a speed test later tonight. I have 25 down 5 up, and am hard wired in.

Ping time is what matters, not your bulk download and upload speeds (unless there are still people on dial-up....). Unfortunately, I don't think we can get ping time from the servers. Lag becomes quite obvious when you're fighting in close, probably much more difficult to determine at longer ranges. Jumped on the euro servers this morning because the US servers were kind of low on players and the lag was painfully obvious. Hit detection wasn't registering at all.
I hope we will actually be able to play comfortably with our neighbors across the pond. I miss hearing all the accents of my old corpmates. :-) |

Some of my coworkers are from the other side of the pond as well. Hopefully there will be some merging. :)

It is my opinion that there is general desynch issue with the Dust 514 client talking to the server. I've head shotted a guy with a sniper and its taken just over a second for him to die, in that time Ive managed to curse my ****** aiming and froth at the screen. On the same token Ive shot a guys head and a second and the moment I pull the trigger he teleports a good two degrees away. Thats frustrating. I love the guys thats mini port out of your cross hairs, not rage inducing at all, seems to happen most with assault suits. Dunno why. |
