czelious 5 Posted September 16, 2014 So i meet a guy with a shotgun, he shoots me so im gonna answer his fire and kill him, but he lags so much i cant hit him, hes just like standing there and i shoot straight at him several shots and nothing, then he glides in that laggy way, away from me ... so high latency = "cheat" in one way..

q.S Sachiel 470 Posted September 16, 2014 (edited) I've seen some dodgy stuff before that looks like a micro-teleport where the guy moves in staggered steps of 3-5m and is impossible to hit but I always put it down to desynch/player latency.Still doesn't make it enjoyable in a game like this.At least in Tribes you could anticipate the lag, and you didn't get 1hitKOd.That said, these moments are rare for me.

sachad 1016 Posted September 16, 2014 Don't forget you can always check the pings and desync of the people on the server. If you see too many laggers, just change servers. I tried playing with an Aussie friend but it was just too ridiculous. One second he'd be 20 yards behind me, then suddenly he pops up 10 yards in front of me. He axed a zombie in the head and the thing kept running for 5 seconds before dying... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sab0t 109 Posted September 16, 2014 i only play on <65~ ms and i thankfully never see crap like this. hard to blame dayz though, you could take your OP and apply it to any FPS and it would sound like it fits. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
captain_finnish 134 Posted September 17, 2014 DayZ servers are usually on full load if there are a lot of people on that server. In those cases, the server fps will go down and it will make clients lag. Devs will fix the server architecture so that it can handle more people + persistence.

DEOVONTAY MCSLANGA 149 Posted September 17, 2014 Haha well thnx, got 300+ hours dayz sa though ^^Just havent had this one happend before, started experimental yesterday so.. too impatient to wait for the patch x) 300 hours and you've never seen teleporters in Dayz? Do you solely play on empty servers? Since day 1 the game has had awful problems with jittering and de-sync. The patch about 2 months ago helped a lot, but player movement is still really derpy sometimes. I refuse to believe you managed to not figure this out until just now.
