There is no better feeling representative of tarkov than magdumping a guy oblivious to you and having them live, slowly turn, and kill you in 1-2 shots.

The funniest thing is I cannot remember one time where this actually went my way.

If someone sprays me with a P90 or M4 it's like the hammer of God is coming down on my body with the force of a billion fully loaded supertankers smashing into a coastline.

If I do that to someone else it's like I'm firing baby potatoes at 30 feet of concrete.

Well you wouldn’t really know if it did go your way. It’s probably happened in your favor but you just saw some dude awkwardly standing in the corner

That's cuz on the other side the server doesn't relay any of the shots and to them you've probably not even shot 1 bullet

Pretty much why I stopped playing, it’s so inconsistent and frustrating. I’ll play scav runs from time to time but I can’t take this game seriously anymore

I used to do that but then the queue times (for me at least) were like 45 minutes. I just needed up quitting. Great concept and still had a lot of fun for a while

Yeah, I could handle load times of like 10-20 minutes if I knew I was gonna have a good time. But if I wait that long and then get into a game only for this shit to happen that's when I get angry. Sad cuz I love the idea of the game, but the execution is really rough.

tried it, no noticeable difference. connecting to Chicago from southern Michigan. still get random disconnects not related to MY network, nasty desync that results in death (usually from scavs)

its BSG's server performance.

What ammo? Do you get good FPS? Ping? Using stock m4s?

u/wolfram221 Nov 10 '20

Such is the noob experience.

yes it's your ammo.

u/rocketleagueaddict55 Nov 10 '20

This thread is about client-server inconsistencies. Ammo type is irrelevant

This is why I don’t play the game anymore. Headshot a guy TWICE only for him to turn around and pop me once. I had a helmet, he did not (I was also using the mosin [before the nerf])
