Author Topic: Framerate has a huge effect on gunnery (Read 1593 times)

A fast Internet connection simply means less possibilities of lag on your end. Others will still lag if they have slow computers or slow Internet, but your chances of warping are reduced.

Frame rates are usually boosted by better processors running with a minimal amount of processes, more RAM, and a good Video card.

if you didn't know or see, as stated hundreds of times on the board, vsync off you can and probably will get rubber bullets.

Ehm, yes, but more bandwith is not necessarily a faster / less laggy connection.

A broadband connection can actually be much more laggy than a clean & stable dial-up connection, despite being advertised as being "faster"

I never said, "Get broadband" or, "More broadband"

I said a, "faster Internet connection." By that I implied a no-lag Direct Service Line. My Internet speed is only at 76 KBPS, but I have no lag and when I played AH people rarely saw me warping or experienced lag on my H2H servers. So I do know the difference between bandwidth and lag.

But many people do not, hence it was easy to read your post that way for them, especially in context with the 2 precding posts. It called for a clarification.
