    I played on my host today along with a couple of friends and i noticed players had the lag effect.

    A gunner who likes the band korn was pretty tough to kill just from his breathing on you.

    Had no rate of fire on his build but could out kill my shotgun and my teamates sniper shots.

    This proves a few things.. either this guy was laggier then me or had a better connection. But then again my teamate had the same problem shooting him. Im guessing its lag.

    No rate of fire gunner with gold armor and clip and reload vs my gold rate of fire shotgun silver armor and crit.

    Do you find it better or worse playing on your host?
    For me its almost unplayable at times now

    Being very laggy helps you a ton in MNC. Most players are very laggy. I've witnessed plenty of them try and play other games and it's miserable how bad they are, leading me to believe that the only reason most players are decent at this game is because of lag, and is why they stick to it/back out of Shadowrun after getting destroyed and come play this.

    host is nearly unplayable for me. Although i deal with it because everyone elses host is somehow worse for other people to play on than mine.

    my huge issue is the frame rate. My connection can't handle the frame rate and often times it feels like overtime during regular play.

    I'll play it some more now that im done walking dead. Sorry once you get into that game its impossible to quit.

    Theres other shooters out there but no one plays them

    Breach
    Special Forces Team x
    Blacklight
    Battlefield 1942
    Section 8
    Quake Arena
    etc...

    I usually play breach when i get bored of mnc and its a breath of fresh air but the lag in that game makes people indestructable as well in some games.

    But yes your right some people just depend on lag to win. Never seen any lag in shadowrun yet.

    Playing on host is better for my sniper and assault, and decent for everything else. The only issue is the framerate for juice, and the fact that skill/scratchy/jump can only connect 1/3rd of the time

    I can hardly play on my host because I see everyone teleporting around and I can't shoot for crap when it happens /:

    These vids I did are pretty convincing evidence of how having a worse connection is more beneficial in MNC-


    Pay specific attention to how turrets barely shoot me and bots just simply don't shoot me most of the time. It's like having platinum armor.

    My problem is not my aim because no matter how close i am shooting someone point blank they dont die.
    Refer to shammas videos when im shooting him and gc is watching every bullet hit him.

    Means my connection isnt sending things through properly.. also gem proved this when he came to the usa.. he destroyed people on his gunner!

    I have the same thing happen to certain people who are known to be outside of the US. I juice AR them with two full clips and d0 like 25% damage. He then proceeds to shoot me through a wall. The lag is getting worse, not better.

    I wasn't actually talking about Scratchyy. It's a story no one knows, because I was solo pubbing.

    Probably about me on my parents connection.

    Ask Feedle or GC how much I've been teleporting around lately.
