Re: Do something about the laggers.

@Deathlyhearts you obviously have no idea what you are talking about. Search google for "lag switching" and "peekers advantage"

APEX uses client side hit registration.. which means if it is a hit on your screen, its a hit. Laggers use this to their advantsge, by pushing around obstacles and doorways so on their screen they can push and shoot at you 1/2 second before you even see them on your screen.

Of course laggers are just as vulnerable to being pushed like this, but opponents don't know the nearby player is lagging until its too late.

You can see a detailed thread about this, including an interview with Overwatch devs about how they addresss it, here...
