My internet connection is fine (if irrelevant) and the PS3 is well ventilated, it even has the external fans add on. It's strange though, that some of us don't have any lag. I can recommend vacuuming the ps3, or something like it. I did that to my laptop, and it stopped crashing when playing games. But exactly what you mean for "lag"? "Lag" it's not only when ppl teleport: for example "lag" is when you shoot at someone and he gets no damage/gets damage after a determined amount of time. "Lag" is textures not updating. If you haven't seen any of these things, then yes, you're lucky. You might have a really strong connection or you might not have played enough. Mind you that not everyone can have a 100Mbps connection... and anyway, yes. This game sometimes lag. Eu vs Us or Us vs Asia etc will always lag.
I also only very rarely experience lag when playing on the local server in europe, it is doable playing on the US server from europe with only a smaller amount of lag. But playing on the asian or ocean server from europe is terrible. I agree with the OP that if you have lag you are either having a bad network connection or gets connected to a server in another region than your own. The risc of getting on another server increases significantly if you play outside of normal hours in your region as most are at work, studying or at sleep.
A quick test will show you the lag, it is not accurate but can be used in the beginning of the match to show if you should take on a support role intead of going cqc. Take a shoot as you spawn and keep an eye on the ammunition counter, if it decreases the same split second you hit the trigger you are all good. I remember playing a forge gunner in chromosone and playing on the asian server gave my forge a second of lag. I shoot the forge gun and a second later the shoot connected, it became a challenge to lead the forge.
Another lag indicator is when you a being shot at and jump behind cover and continue to take damage as you take cover and end up dieying even with no line of sight from the red dot.
And no connection problems here iether from, these must also be local network problems or an issue with older PS3 systems. I have only the loading screen of death after extensive gaming sessions when joining a new match. |
