As much as I like ace I disagree. A person with high ping just ruins the whole lobby. Call it what you will. Explain it how you want but if they matched you with people of equal ping or close to it, most of the problems like this will go away. I think it affects it much more than Ace explains here.

curious on how Iain is about to tackle that with the anti-lag compensation feature

you would need to make the game thinking you are lagging while in reality you are not

either way whatever system they go with there should be scenarios in which it isnt helpfull

 

also this ace guy didnt highlight every lag compensation system, in older CoD games such as MW3 you could get killed instantly when going around a corner while on the opponents killcam you could see that he saw you walking around that corner for quite some time already

such a scenario cannot be explained with the basic lag compensation model that this ace guy showed in the video, you cannot narrow down lag compensation that easy

 

 

aside from that games without lag compensation > games with lag compensation

having to lead your shots adds to the skillgap which is something CoD lacks in every possible aspect

and who would want to play cross-continential players anyhow, not even in lag compensation games you would want to do that unless low popularity forces you to do so

Wouldn't anti-lag comp have to artificially set your ping to the same as the highest peer ping or something?
