@Xbox-Chf-Wiggum I don’t think Apex Legends has ‘’Lag Compensation’’ the servers are just in a terrible state

I guess there technically is lag compensation when you run into that random player teleporting all over your screen as the kill leader just because you don’t know their actual location so you have to either randomly spray or just stick in one spot and hope they strafe into it to kill them...

@TheApexLegendNub If they do, it needs to be turned off and kept off. No one should be awarded free kills because they have such a terrible ping, they can shoot people who aren't moving on their end, and deal damage, even though that player they're hitting is behind a wall.

I've ran across the map in Arenas, and went around a corner, and a player who was also around a corner was able to shoot me as if I was out in the open. This is unacceptable and shouldn't be a thing at all.

  @Midnight9746 I'm not sure that it lag compensation doing that. I only experienced this recently while switching servers so my guess would be server issue or my connection, bc the game was running fine for me while I was able to select a closer server. I've had this issue before and switching to a higher ping server sometimes helped make it less of an issue. If it was ping, the problem should have been worse in that case.
