Every death is instant.

I don't know about anybody else but for me this last week of playing has been absolutely horrible. I don't know if it is the lag comp, the game, or the fact that I'm using the M16 but it has been just terrible.
I would say that 95% of my deaths over the last week have been of the instant kill variety. And what I mean by this is that it is basically like playing hardcore in regular game modes. I put two bursts into a guy with the M16 just for him to turn around and basically one shot me with a PP90M1. I die before I even see people coming around corners. It's never been this bad. I never see a red screen and most of the time I'm dead before there is even bullets flying at me on my screen. I watch killcams where it literally seems like I'm a full two seconds behind everybody else.
I stopped reading when you said M16. Cause you answered your own question.
Yeah... cuz the gun you're using has sooo much to do with instant lag-induced deaths ![]()
@OP: It's the lag comp. You're basically dead before your screen even shows the enemy shooting you. There's not really anything you can do other than scream and throw your controller.
Was his theory...dont get smart with me...
"with me" as opposed to the person who said it first. Not dont get smart with me or I'll come for you. LOL Im not like that.
Best post I have seen all day. ![]()
I figured it was the lag comp. It's always been bad but I had grown used to how bad it was but now it's just on a whole new level. Hopefully it goes away soon enough.
your gun has nothing to do with lag comp. the M16 is a fairly good gun if you get thermal on it. lag comp has just gotten worse than ever b4
Yeah it's terrible. I'm about 300 kills from 2500 right now. But using the M16 doesn't have anything to do with dying without ever taking any damage.
It's just you...thats what I am told everytime I make a similar post, lol. Let me ask you...are there 2-4 completely dominant players in the matches you are playing, and everyon else is negative? Are you contantly put into in progress matches on the losing end of a lopsided score? These are some of the common things I have been geting, as well as the very laggy conections.
Occasionally. The joining in progress isn't as bad as it used to be but it still happens from time to time. Just recently I've noticed more and more wonky things going on. I was in a game where I was the only person in the whole game with 3-bar and when I rage quit I found out that I was the host.
BLOPS I had the 3 bar host many of times. It is probably because they adjust the lag comp because of complaints being of I have 5 star Internet and I am a sec behind. I am still about the same or a lil better before so it is what it is until they have a universal ISP with 1 package it is going to be damn near impossible to make everyone happy.
I LOVED being host in Black Ops. Even when I wasn't host in Black Ops the game still ran fine unless I was in a foreign lobby. I get on that and MW2 and almost feel like a juggernaut because of how much damage I can take.
That happens to me so much. It happens when I get shot at by the ACR for most of them (it might not have anything to do with it) But im running cross map and a guy shoots me and i dont even see red and Im dead. I know he probably wouldve killed me anyway but if I wouldve known I was being shot at I could at least try to dive behind cover and not just take it in the butt.
