@DarthValtrex i hear you man i suffer the same net issues at times and it can be pretty infuriating lol, as a FPS player i'm probably only slightly above average in terms of raw combat skill, currently only sat on a k/d of like 1.30 for the season, but i get my kills and wins just by applying my brain....this is where a lot of players go wrong, charging around thinking they're shroud when they really aint, and subsequently blaming the game when they die. 😛

@MandatoryIDtag I do think there are people who exploit lag to win. I had a guy tonight, I had an Eva 8 and blue shields.. He had an alternator or white shields. We were in the stairs of one of those 2 story blue huts. I was at the bottom and he was towards the top. The hip fire cross hairs basically took up more than half of the stair way so even if I was a little to the right or a little to left he should have been getting hit. It was not registering and I ended up as the dead player...
But the most common that I run into are the players who one or two shot you.. You then look at the death recap and it says 5-7 or even 8 shots.. Yeah I only heard one or two and only had time to react to 1 or two. I'm noticing that the nights when that is happening frequently are the nights when my numbers are horrible. every other night I'm putting up average numbers and getting a few kills.
I know for a fact that they are not being honest with the packet loss estimates. When I look at the server list.. It shows all but 1 of the servers as having 0 packet loss.. Really? I'm fairly confident those servers with 150+ ping have packet loss going on.

Yeaah, i've heard people switch data centres to abuse the high ping a lot too which is why apex turns into the movie wanted, and people start bending bullets around cover at you. 😛
