    Perfect example of lag compensation in action. Octane shot me where I was not where I am actually positioned:

      @PsyhiX69 but isn't that just the game being out of sync? Otherwise if the game "compensated" like it should, shouldn't those shots have missed? I mean, you BOTH should be seeing the same thing if the game compensated correctly? This seems very one sided to his favor. Or am I missing something?

      Either way, I don't feel like I'm being compensated for my ping at all. 180 in game minimum. People do this to me quote often but it varies in severity.

        The lag compensation was introduced to "fix" the issues with people playing at different pings (from 10ms to even 200ms) good luck balance that.

        They made a choice to mix all these people together and to give high ping players "a fair chance" they added lag compensation so they can actually hit anyone with lower ping. That's why low-ping players are usually suffering being hit behind the cover.
