Title, It's true people. Just got done playing 2 games of Ambush. Both times I was paired up with "WHAT THE FRENCH" Corporation. I have no proof it was them specifically but I could hardly imagine that it'd be anyone else after 2 games or obvious lagswitching.

Both games our team got destroyed, I joined late and still got the Highest score which was 2/4. Everybody on our team was either being disconnected by the switch or Just leaving the game after they realized what was going on. No one on the opposing team had more than 2 deaths. I wish we could take screenshots and upload them, I hate making accusations without proof.

Anyway, just avoid "WHAT THE FRENCH" If you can, they're obviously composed of Call of Duty players who couldn't adapt to a not braindead easy game.... Thats of course if they weren't lagswitching it there as well...

And who are you... no seriously ?!
WTF (pun intented) is this all about.

I probably wasn't in the games you mention, but SKILLS is not the same as lagswitching.
Dude I don't know how long you have been playing this game, but most of the peeps in our Corp have been playing since this summer, they have all (well except me...) met in MAG and none that I know of seriously played this c.o.d. thing you're talking about.

I'm getting sick of these n00bs that get slaughtered and need to find excuses. If you went 2/4 then you obviously aren't all that good are you, and the rest of your team must have seriously sucked to put it bluntly like that.
Itchi, Tracky, Stellios, Chaos, Gloo, Caz (?), Flo and prob 1 or 2 others where in the top 100 (most in the top 50) of the Kill-leaderboards before the server switch. Seriously dude I think you simply got in Wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyy over your head.

Next time you get slaughtered on the battlefield tell yourself this : They are simply better organized, have better skills and more experience...

Your own defeat isn't the fault of the game lagging. The game lags tremendously since yesterdays EVE war. Not our fault.
Now go back to the battlefield, get some skills and then come back, request a corpmatch and you'll see who's laggswitching... or not.

Peace to you dude, but next time think before posting unfounded and dumb assumptions.

All I can say is, welcome to Dust, where a team can get absolutely steamrolled with no chance whatsoever. It sucks, I know, it's annoying, I know... but when the formula of players on the other team is in such harmony, the devastation can be insane. I wouldn't call it lagswitching if there obviously wasn't any lag, the lag was outrageous. Shooting a guy 30 times for the game to freeze, have me skip around the map and I end up dead. I'm not an idiot. I know when I'm getting decimated by being outplayed and outgunned but when there is obviously some type of force outside of my control dictating the outcome of gun fights, I'd like to think something is wrong. Quote: lolno The servers are laggy sometimes. TRUE lag switching only works on P2P matchmaking when the server IS the host. He engages his lag switch to basically freeze people, and kill them. You can use lag on dedicated servers, but you'll be skipping around the screen, till the servers kick you out (assuming the servers in DUST do that. I can download something while playing, basically creating lag, but it won't help me (unless i run a scout suit + shotgun + speed mods). Chances are, the servers are lagging due to the influx of players... A mature and informative answer, thank you. I learnt something new about lagswitching. There was definitely a lot of lag going on, the growing amount of players coming to this game could be the cause. What I didn't understand was how the lag was affecting us so badly yet the opposing team was doing more than just fine. Could it have been skill? Maybe, I guess I'll never know.

Peace to you dude, but next time think before posting unfounded and dumb assumptions. Truly a dumb and unneeded post, did you even read the thread? Or did you just read the first post and then furiously start mashing on your keyboard? I'll admit I jumped the gun on calling out the french as lagswitchers, but I never claimed myself to be good at the game. Saying my own defeat isn't the fault of the game lagging and then immediately and then admittedly saying the game lags tremendously is just comical. I've also just found out that the EVE war was the cause of the lag going on, or simply as many others have stated that I was put in an EU server. I'm sorry if I somehow hurt your feeling in my first post. Peace to you dude, but next time think before posting unfounded and dumb rants.
