How's it Coming Along?

Post by Timberwolf »

How are my hi-bandwidth camps coming?

I just want to give an "I told you so" to everyone who SWEARS they have good connection. I'm sick of seeing people walk through walls and shooting me while walking away and then saying "no good i have connection timberwolf" :lol: :lol: :lol:

In many cases that's due to your very low FPS value.

I did not say that.

If you have 10 FPS, your computer can draw only one frame of 5.
Those 4 missing frames combined with their bad connection gives you a terrible result:
they seem to walk through walls, to flipping, to be almost invisible, etc.
But for the other players with decent FPS value, these "bad pingers" look ok.

Well, by now I can tell the difference a little bit better.

Like today in TFC DM COD (Supreme, Timberwolf) vs. WOH (Kurt, Ulu, Spartanoob), I was actually pulling 30-35 FPS for the first game and some of the second.

But their behaviors were off the charts bad. Sparta walked away from me but was shooting me. lmao

Then fast forward to this evening's SMC CTF with COD (Supreme, Timberwolf) vs. MOD (Distrug, Ovi), I was pulling 5/50 after an HOUR and knew the crap I was seeing was bogus.

Since I'm so used to playing like this, I can mostly tell the difference between skipped/missing frames and Kurt walking through a mini invisible teleporter to move 10 feet with every step. :lol:
