drivetime1 0 Posted April 3, 2014 So ive noticed the combat is a little akward in the standalone. Im pretty sure this is due to come kind of lag or desync...anyways, I was peeking around the corner of a doorway to shoot another player who was sitting ontop of some stairs in the corner...fired two rounds at him..i heard him fire his M4..didn't take any immediate damage and returned back to cover..2 seconds later "you are dead"this all happened quickly and i was not exposed very long at all. not much of me should have been exposed and honestly it sounded as if he sprayed and prayed with an M4 and at 30% of my exposed body 2 boot. ive also got some kills in this same manner...and as cool as I think it is for a player to have a delayed reaction as you kill them..its kind of shitty. I haven't had to many good fire fights but this kind of disappointed me today. It almost feels like your being shot threw a wall which I know couldn't be the case.Was dayz mod like this as well?

enforcer1975 1111 Posted April 3, 2014 Server fps drop Client ping Server fps drop ( oh it's already listed ) Too many players on server causing 5. Server fps drop it's and endless nightmare you could start with 1. from here on.Mod would be the same problem if you joined a server that was too full, had players with pings ranging from 1 to 500 and where the hardware on server and client side are not good enough to handle the load causing server fps to drop, then client fps to drop, desync etc. causing what exactly happened to you. Not that it's new it can happen in any shooter it would be like two high pingers fighting eachother. He shoots you duck you are still above cover on his pc he hits you you die although you were already behind cover. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hannibaldaplaya 1095 Posted April 3, 2014 Unfortunately I know how you feel, sometimes I feel bad for killing people who somehow didn't hit me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

blazinone 72 Posted April 3, 2014 I have a hard enough time hitting zombies with an axe when they are right in front of me...let alone engaging in some sort of firefight with a human at any distance. So yes, this certainly seems like one of the more critical "symptoms" of some of the client/server performance issues they are working through. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Forrelist 236 Posted April 3, 2014 I've actually had this myself recently. Got in a firefight at NEAF , was trapped in the control tower, peeked out the mid window and got shot by a guy right outside. It gave me the usual "I think my arm is broken", "I'm bleeding stuff, but I still managed to fire a shot off at him, and then I died about two seconds later. It might just be Desync, but he should have just killed me there and then , the fact that I was able to return fire and hit him was a bit cheap. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Scofflaw 73 Posted April 3, 2014 could have been sniped also by someone else. I was in balota recently, on a nearly empty server, and all of a sudden "YOU ARE DEAD". Didn't hear anything, didn't see anyone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
