Lockdown is Ping to Win.
Simple as that. I've killed several players that should've killed me with their UVs and pokers and such but if they're 1-2 seconds behind, there's not much hope left.
TL;DR: I have better ping than other people. Get better servers OOO. It ain't balanced and I want a fair fight.
Yep, it's common knowledge. Most people with bad ping are used to it, or just suck it up. Nothing can be done. If you learned to make the most of it, and still do great you deserve a pat on the back for being a good sport. In an ideal world everything will be more fair, but that's too bad. Life goes on. C:
As a gunner, I see latency issues very often (ex: shoot behind me, and the striker gets hit on my side) and I'm at 4 bars lol. When playing vs really mobile strikers, there are times I shoot behind me and see them take damage at a completely different angle lol.
The great part about it is that it's actually visible around the whole game, but most people don't see it because in PVE, monsters move so slow that you don't really notice it unless you're trying to shoot at t3 kats/howlitzer heads/devilite dodges. It's also a huge playability issue in Blast Network, where your "real character placement" is behind you, forcing you to get stuck behind a bomb you didn't realize you were behind.
