Low ping = disadvantage?

Re: Low ping = disadvantage?

I have trouble playing with a ping anywhere over 80. I always thought the lower the ping the better, but I have never got a ping lower then 35 so I can't really tell. My avg ping is 45 I get no connection lag.

I always love playing against Americans on NZ servers at 2 AM - 5 AM, so much easier since most players have 250+ Ping.

Re: Low ping = disadvantage?

low ping = faster killing but also faster dying. Pretty standard knowledge.

Re: Low ping = disadvantage?

Low ping is definitly not a disadvantage. High ping is however, for the obvious reason of lag, but also for being called a cheater. Why? Because high pings (in the view of low ping players) appear to teleport across the map. No joke, I've seen it. Others games suck BHD, have banned ppl with a dial-up connection thinking they were teleporting. :hmm:

Re: Low ping = disadvantage?

u guys must get educated on how pings work.

if the guy your shooting has a much higher ping than you when u shoot his character you will hit him as his hitbox and his character are very close together on your screen, however on his screen he is moving more in front of where u see him, hence how u die several seconds AFTER u run behind a corner etc sometimes. and when he is shooting you he will be shooting your character but getting puffs of your body because your actual hitbox and character on your screen are more in front of where he sees you, hence in order to hit he has to lead you a ****load. why do you think its so hard to hit people moving side to side, the netcode in this game is horrible. if i am in a chopper i will check the other guys ping and adjust my aim forward or back of his chopper accordingly and rarely miss. 9/10 on choppers. usually towards the tail as i only join servers with less than 50 ping.
