The net code. I know some people don’t “lag”, it’s only some. But, after about a 5 day break or so (playing H3 with friends), I played today and one match would be great, my bullets were counting, ect. and then the next game, The enemy team were walking tanks. This has been going on since release. They teleport, I teleport, shots don’t effect them…
For instance, on one of the laggy games, I stuck a guy in the chest with a sticky det… he didn’t die then I shot shot twice in the head with my BR and he ran right through it, straight at me and got a double beat down. There are other times that my shot WILL count and I know I missed. Especially with explosives, I can get triples with the Sticky Det sometimes when my shot is far away. Same with the railgun, rockets, ect. I guess overall, it just makes the game feel very inconsistent. There’s no “solid” feeling.
I know it isn’t my internet connection, every other game I play (including 3 and Reach) have typically good connection with little to no lag at all. It took about 5-7 minutes to find a lobby every time I searched, too.
And before you go saying “maybe you should aim better” and things like that, I have played enough games online to know when my shots should count. I miss shots though, like anyone else, but I know when I miss.
I really hope the TU addresses this above everything else, of course I would love to see a lot of other aspects of the game balanced/fixed as well, but this is the single reason at this time that this game is just unplayable for me.
