@lnxtvvAs i said before, I totally agree with you and your posts. Apex legends has massive server/cheater problems. Sometimes you get killed by cheaters and sometimes it looks like you take 3 bullets but you die from 12-15 shots. Dying behind cover and behind doors is unacceptable too, it just proves how bad the servers are. Having aim assist on controller to the point where even pro m/k players switch on controllers and say that it's impossible to beat a controller player in close range it's also ridiculous for a competitive fps game in 2021. Respect man, keep up the good work, maybe you can draw enough attention to change smth, even though i doubt it.
Yep, dying from those seemingly 3 shots is 100% due to lag, some people would think it's due to cheating. Your opponent is playing closer to real time than you are and he'll out play you any day because of it. I'm just not sure if that lag is due to servers or some network thing. If it's on the server side shouldn't everyone have the same issue? If it's a network ping / distance issue why do I experience lower lag sometimes with higher ping? Confused at this point.
- E9ine_AC5 years agoHero+@Sand_spitter What no one understands also is that people a lot times play on higher ping them self. Just to lag and have the advantages of not being easily seen or shot near warps in front targets. So to blame the lag on servers when there are many other things it could actually be is what weirds me out. Unless he has seen the stats on the server and the cpu and gpu stats where they are then blaming a server is a assumption.
I see every day people who have either crap internet or higher pings just lag for that advantage, Ever notice how a lot big streamers who are actually on the NA region of the world and yet go play japan servers? There is a reason people do this.- 5 years ago
I've heard about this, Zeus mentioned that he practiced on high ping. I can see it being beneficial to perhaps force you to react quicker as the game gets harder the further away from real time you play. So going back to low ping servers with your new found reflexes should take your gameplay to a whole new level. Makes sense.
But what I don't get is why someone would choose to play on a ping so high that they start teleporting.
I usually feel / see myself when I'm skipping and I'm having just as much of a problem playing as my opponents do. I used to play with a friend in UK and she not once saw me teleport or skip at a ping of 200.
The whole lag thing is melting my brain and there seems to be many reasons for it aside from just bad servers. All I know is that it's really bad on Apex especially and I would like to have it gone but I know that's not gonna happen :D
- hayhor5 years agoHero@Sand_spitter High ping doesnt give an advantage. I play EU servers a lot and can tell you this is what I see 20 ping vs 130 ping-
High ping takes longer to open things, pickup loot, etc.
High ping also means enemies see you first. So they many times will start shooting you before you realize they are there.
The one advantage high ping sees is you are shooting at someone after that person thinks they have taken cover so one or two bullets strike them.
