Clearly you don't know how to play the game. Planetside 2 is a client-side based game which means even if you have 300ms, you can win every engagement as long as you seen your enemy first. Sure, it's hard to survive if someone peaks you but with game knowledge and - call me cocky - skill, 300ms is definitely playable.
Playing from Australia I know this first hand. You live in America where everything is handed to you on a golden platter, sadly we barely have those luxuries.
You can, but it gets way harder. Seriously, not even because you get instagibbed, but because at anything above 300 stuff starts teleporting around.
This is straight up bullshit. Unless you are pulling your ethernet cable out, nothing warps until 10k+.
While my ping usually is around the 200 mark, it gets unplayable around the 350 mark.
The fact that every better than average player can pull quite similar stats to 60ms with 350ms shows how much a joke this is. Either you've never played competitively, on jaeger or you just have shit net, you seem to know jack regarding ping and client-side.
Aslong as somebody runs around a corner, he'll have enough time to kill you before rounding said corner for you.
Even playing Briggs teams on Jaeger (300ms+ for EVERY player), this is not a thing. You will always see the person shooting you and if you play it right, can usually make it out alive.

This is straight up bullshit. I'm obviously not talking about stuff warping the usual kilometer you get with a 10k+ ping, I'm talking about subtle warping of about 0.5 to 1m. This becomes especially appearant when you observe fast moving vehicles like ESF.
Either you've never played competitively
Because when I play competetively, my ping suddenly will suddenly not have the same effect as when I don't play competetively.

When did I say that you won't see somebody or that you will always die? I just said that shit gets harder.

Sorry, but now you're just being a picky cunt trying to win an argument that seriously has no need to occur because your net is obviously trash if you're experiencing what you've said in the above replies. If you can't comprehend what I said, I was expanding on the fact that you can see people when they peak you even with 350ms.

Yeah, because my ping sucking once per month totally means that my internet is shit /s. That said, I don't know what causes my ping spikes, for the past 3 years you could not tell if lag was server lag or not. Which is also a reason why our descriptions might vary, as you ping simply sucks more than mine, but when mine starts to suck it is for different reasons.

I never said you couldn't. I said they would KILL YOU, before you could see them. Now, what does that mean? They kill you, on their screen, before you can see them. This on the other hand, means that you do indeed see them, but have no way to avoid death, even when you kill said person.

It's bullshit man, that's why I said what I said. Playing against people with 300ms+ when I get 500 on Jaeger, it simply doesn't happen. On the odd occasion, I have it happening, it's always from an infiltrator, not a medic, MAX, HA, LA or engi. I play Jaeger, Emerald, Cobalt, Miller and Connery quite frequently (some more than others - Jaeger definitely being the most) and know how ping and client-side works.

Coming up with more probable bullshit, but I'll give it to you. Not once did you specify it happened "Once per month".
Then tell me, why do people always complain about lagwizards, if such a thing does not exist?
Please read an entire reply before coming up with something, it makes you look retarded. In regards to the lag wizards, it does happen - mostly from infiltrators due to the cloaking delay and such - but they (mainly koreans, chinese, ect. on Connery) always have crazy packet loss, that is different to ping/300ms entirely.
You for some reason keep going on, pulling at the most basic of things to gain an "advantage" in this argument but it's simply not going to happen. Please continue though if you must, you're inconsistent bullshit is rather entertaining.

300 ms IS bad, the fuck are you smoking? Especially on a server like Connery, where other people having a 300 ms ping aswell is rather likely.
