Desync/Lag in game solution

[blissandpanic 92]

Hi fellow survivors,

 

 

So i was rolling with a few friends inland and we came across some friendlies willing to trade some blood test kits for ammo and such. As we traded and chatted by a well, i and a another fellow were desync and/or lagged doing the good old rubber band dance. One of the other group members said to press the "A" and "D" buttons in a quick succession and that will help for a short period. I tried it and it seemed to work as people quickly responded in direct chat "hey you're not running past the well anymore!". I only lasted for a bit though so my question is:

 

Did anyone try this temp fix? Does it work for all ppl? are there any other ideas out there?

 

Please discuss and thanks in advance for any info..

Check your ping, and make sure to pick the lobby with the lowest possible number of people and ping. Thats really the only fix available right now.

I am aware of that my friend and thanks for the info but some times when you join a group or to help someone in need you don't have a choice in that matter(server). Also like in the situation i mentioned above having many ppl in one place and a week comp. can cause it even though you didn't get that effect earlier. This is a temp solution when you need to be sync for those moments. Did anyone try this? are there any others while we go through the alpha phase?

It's desync. A way to help with it later would allow only people with good ping on lmfao. Thats all I can say. There's always that 500+ pinged guy fucking the shit out of the server.

Desync will continue to happen regardless of your connection in some cases just due to the way the game processes inventory other things. Rocket made a comment a week ago or so about working on it. Until it's fixed serverside it's not something you can try and fix from the client, it is what it is. It can come and go, hit you hard, or hardly ever. Bandwidth overusage is also related to this so it can be a persistent issue.

lol yea, i don't go over 65 max, but like i said if you get a large group of ppl together in one spot it happens  ;) . So im just sharing with the community that in my case pressing the "A" ans "D" key helped in that situation, and if others did the same or have other ideas would be apreciated.

 

- I see  guys/gals with 600+ pings from AU playing in our Canadian servers hehe!, i know what you mean :lol:

There is also another way to fix this that was pointed out to me by a few friends of mine.  Get an axe, baseball bat or blunt weapon of choice out and find the nearest building wall (outside) and hit it a few times.  It works instantly, and lasts for a long time (at least in my experience it has).

Good point

Like someone is going to join a server that says 500 ping. Singapore servers are less than 300 ping so you must have Martians trying to play your server.
