Client prediction and missed opportunities
|

Now this might just be me, since I don't have the fastest computer or anything, but have any other pilots noticed that when you are on somebody's tail and land the last couple shots that disable the enemy aircraft it kind of teleports forwards and down? When you get shot down the plane goes into a dive and says you've lost control, but what I think happens when you are shooting at someone and it disables them is that your computer doesn't register that they are entering a dive right away... When you get the packet back from the server updating they're location they are already way below your crosshairs, and a lot of times the pilot has time to bail from the aircraft before you can adjust and land the final bullet to blow the plane up. This is starting to piss me off because I have missed out on kills for a lot of Liberator crews due to what I think is a side effect of lag prediction. *sigh*
So anyways, has anyone else seen this happen, and do you think its something that could be fixed some day?
