Tilt, that's one way of doing it.

Humble: The point of collecting data is to act upon it. In THAT regard, it will be abused to bring on unwarranted action by HTC when they review it and see, say, 100+ reports on "player x" when all 100 were from 2 large MA squads with a vendetta

But that is true for the current "reports" that we have ... it's HTC job to separate the wheat from the chaff. I would not dismiss this idea based on what "might" happen.

Currently I am seeing slide shows even in small furballs in the MW arena ... I was not experiencing any of that prior to this latest upgrade.

Also, and this is just my observation, it seems like they start warping when you come into gun range or have them in your sights - not when you're 3k out or so . . .

That's because you're usually paying better attention to the red guys. I've seen plenty of green ones warp too.

Generally speaking I tell them they might want to relog, and, generally speaking, most people will do so.

Last week ish on ch200 I saw some people askin' a player who's name I didn't know to relog as they were warpy. Over an hour I prob. saw said player told they were warping on 1/2 a dozen diff. occasions.

I upped a field about to get hoarded by the Bish. (as always) and lo' and behold there is said player 3k from me warping all over the place. (it was just the two of us and they were constantly zig zagin' all over the place)

I told them over range they were warping, and typed it out on country incase they upped from a diff. field.

THEIR (the warpers) reply was that I was a cheating spy for the Bish (snicker) and the only reason I would care if they are warping was to help the bad guys shoot them down. (and on and on and on. was quite the rant)

Geeez... try to help somebody.

It frustrating for sure..

One night I was in an osti shooting at an A-20. He appeared to pass by without firing a single shot. I was tracking him (missing the whole time, but doing my best) only to watch him pass, appear to go underground, pop back up above ground me looking at the tail of the plane. Then and only then, his shots hit me and I was in the tower.

My squadie had the same thing happen.

There should be a limit on just how much lag you can have and not be kicked off.

ive been getting some really bad screen freezes while fighting...and discoed when im fighting near a CV

Bah, this is the current state of the MA. Once every 2 or 3 shorties you find one that conveniently warps when you are behind him but flies nice and smooth when he gets behind you. Sometimes, you fly by them and a few seconds latter you hear the pings and you blow up.

I wish it could be fixed but there is not match that can be done. UDP is unreliable, but it allows for games like this to be made (easier and cheaper)

Every year, about this time, I have to make this post.

Folks, before going off the deep end here, and assuming this has something to do with the patch, also consider this. Every year, for as long as I can remember, the Internet gets stupid around this time. School just started. Never fails.

There are two distinct times of the year when the Internet shifts into stupid mode.

1) Just as school starts here in the U.S.
2) Just after school lets out in the U.S.

You can set a watch to it. It is one of the more reliable indicators of what to expect from the Internet. Both periods usually peak about 3 to 4 days after the starting incident, then they slowly trail off and the Internet gets back to normal within a couple of weeks.

We happen to hit the peak time for 'Internet stupid' with this patch. Not saying there may not be an issue with the patch, but right now it is virtually impossible to tell the difference between 'Internet stupid' and the patch.

I am on a dialup in Oman , there are only 2 providers here , omantel and narwas they use edge .Now Omantel does offer broadband , but not where i am , and Narwas's egde doesnt reach here either so im stuck with an unreliable dial up , so yes i am probably one of the guys you see warping .
I know this can be a pain in the backside , take it from me it is for me also , but short of not playing what else is there ????
