ok so i have taken up quickscoping in COD mw2 and I am getting better although like its major hard!
Thing is sometimes and im not just saying this someone will be running and I know I have hit them in the chest even friends shout out come on because its a clear chest shot. Anyway they just plain run up and gun me down without even taking any damage.
When I watch their killcam not only did they not take any damage but on their screen I hadnt even shot yet? Compared with mine where I shot a good second before them?
And like sometimes I could swear I made it to cover but still die so I watch the killcam and even though on my screen I know i made it behind say the bin or car on theirs I am still running to it when I die?
I watched some quick scoping tutorials on youtube and some of the better guys compensate for this by aiming a bit in front of where they are going?
Anyone else experience this I was sure i had ok internet up/down speeds? |

You can't completely trust the kill-cam. It's bugged in many different ways.
The long and short of it is, yes, you were not host, so you lagged a little bit. It happens a little less now that the game searches for games based on ping, but it happens. |

i think COD2 should have something similar as counter strike has, counter strike comes with a preset connection settings that make this frustrating things happen.
On cs you have commands to set in the console:
rate 25000/45000
cl_cmdrate 101
cl_updaterate 101
with this LAN settings you'll have more ping (if you usually have 40 ms this way you'll have 50-60) but this things won't happen.
Also the wireless connection creates loss/choke, loss = lost packets, so you see your bullet hit the player but the game didn't receive that information.
Choke it's like an altered packet, the bullet hit in another possition. |
