Help! - I'm outta sync

You may hear the sound of bullets hitting you when you take cover, but are they causing damage? Flak shrapnel is about the only stuff that will still damage after ricocheting. I use primary flak for that purpose: shooting around corners. Also, if you can get within point blank range of the bot, he won't be turning around after you pull the trigger! Otherwise, just hold down the fire and dance around him to keep ahead of his rotation. He'll go down before you do.

What bugs me about online play, is the shock combo. I'm pretty certain that the server is actually predicting my movement to the other players, considerably ahead of where I see myself. This is the only way I can deduce how some people can anticipate a combo so well: they did not anticipate so much as they were actually fed an erronous picture of where I actually am, but they get credit for it! The server prediction is biased against the hpw's in this manner. In reverse, it does not work very well, because I must be "getting set up to do a combo" for what must seem like an insane amount of time to any lpb who would watch me. Not only did I appear to him before I should have, but then, his position has to get fed to my slow connection. Then, I squeeze the first shot off (for which I could lead, no prob), and then combo that. It just takes too much time to execute it, just like firing the xlocator does.

I don't think it is the zero ping thing, because the same thing has been happening to me. It actually started about a month ago and usually happens when someone is shooting at me with the mini gun. One instance was on Bollwerk, someone was standing up near the thigh belt with the mini and I jumped with the jump boots and felt could hear and see the shield belt that I had being shredded away. When I landed in continued to hit me and even hit me when I rounded the corner to where the front door is. Don't know what the deal is with that, but I immediately thought of a new aimbot type thing. However until there is proof of what it is, I am not going to freak out any more than I already do in my house, when I play. And another thing, that Loque is a lame cheatin bastard!

Hmmmmm, maybe there's something wrong in the new patch? I have noticed I am having more difficulty hitting ppl with primary flak lately, but I don't play offline any more so I figured it was just the lag.

well sometimes when i get the flag and run off...i'm halfway across the map and all of a sudden...i am dead inside the base where i picked up the flag......if that was happening to me what is happening to you i would say lag....since i'm a HPB
