I tried playing on a different server where I got 40 ping, and it was damn near night and day compared to my usual server where I get 20 ping.
- Switching guns and even moving around had slight delays
- Spraying was impossible. Noticeable screen stutter and no idea where my bullets were going
- Holding angles was impossible. I had to hold farther away to compensate for the delay, which defeats the purpose of even holding.
- Slight delay before you realize you killed someone. On 20 ping I immediately know when I kill someone, and I will stop shooting. On 40 ping I have to almost empty my clip before I get the visual feedback that they’re dead.
- I love me the Phantom on 20 ping, but on 40 ping I felt like I needed to use the Vandal
It’s crazy because I didn’t think 40 ping was high, but the game is noticeably more delayed compared to 20 ping.
It’s similar to CSGO when I played on 64 tick vs 128 tick. It felt like I was playing on 64 tick on 40 ping.
