Shooting Lag
« on: April 29, 2009, 06:06:47 PM »
Had some serious lag issues with a red guy today who shot me down without it appearing as though he shot me down.  Everyone said he had serious lag issues fighting him as I was.  He kept jumping and I was looking to disengage from him when I starting getting hits though he was spraying wildly nowhere near me.  I have seen lag before but never like this.. 

Video below.. after he shoots me down, you can see him lagging off into the sunset..

Yea if it is still TT usday you will get that. Also if he is warping rigth when you pull the trigger try turning off your tracers that may help.

Not a bug but a bat connection on his part. 

I was shot down one TT by a P-38 that was 4k in front of me.  One second he was there.  Then he disappeared.  I thought I was about to get booted.  Next thing I know I see tracers and hear hits with no one behind me.  He reappeared about 150 yards in front of me as I was going down.

I PM'd him and asked if I was warping and told him what happened and he said I looked fine and he would try re-logging.

anything over 300ms  ping should be kicked.   If your not smooth no Soup for you.

I Don't want to hear all the sob stories about bad connections etc.  Fed up of the warpers in TT when they waste precious SA time to keep track of / kill.    These people need to get help with either cleaning up their machines or sorting out their connections.

It is only a small minority but still frustrating.   I suggest a (.warp)  report feature so htc can keep a log of people who are WAY out of the ordinary and email them with a help guide.  3 strikes and your out !

Could you please explain how your computer makes you warp?

For Wrongway. Believe Skuzzy has some sticky of system preformace, and things not to run in the background. Mostly any update software. I include McAfee with this list.

Have no idea what processes that are running on a system, since im not in front of it, but heres a list of things.

Anything using some sort of sharing program, not gonna get speicific, but there are such things. Mostly pirating vids, or music.

Firewall, and any web blocker, this mostly cause sound stutter or none at all. No idea of Ping.

Any ipod software. Itunes comes to mind.

Basically anything running in the background, that has to deal with connection. I for one have 19 processes running on my system, not including AH. I try to keep mine streamlined, and reload from a known good backup, if I suspect Ive might have somethign borrowing cpu cycles that shouldnt be. Just get wierd like that. Then again, I have a backup of this system that contains a fresh install ( with all specific drivers for hardware and SP III ), then I have a seperate DVD of AH fully configured with most skins. Might have D/L a skin or two but no biggie. in about 20 Mins, I can be back in the air. Would recommend anyone to do that for a gaming rig.

Then theres the old poor connection.

Connection stability matters more than connection speed.  A steady 300ms connection is better than one that is 80ms 90% of the time and 500ms the other 10%.

after unistalling the high res texture pack my frame rate went up (from around 30 to around 110) and warping is not problem any more for me.

For a Backup, theres a program called backup on your system. It can be used to make a recovery disk. Theres a wizard in there you can use, if you have a burner, I would use that. Also all your HTC settings, are in programs/HTC you can backup that seperately if you want. THis is after you have a working system from a fresh load. I created mine after I spent the day loading everythign I need with all service paks. Also any specific hardware drivers and such. Figure it takes me about 8 hours to reload my system from scratch, and just using a backup about 20-25 mins. I'd rather spend just a half hour.
