100 ping? you seriously can't play with a tenth of a second ping time? Sounds like you're a shitty gamer making excuses
If the person shooting you has 30ms ping, I'd say it's a significant advantage.
To human perception a 0.1 seconds isn't much different than 0.03 seconds
I forgot if it was you I asked about this or not. But are you sure the one with slightly less ping time isn't just cheating?
if a person shooting me has a lower ping and I get upset about it with a 100 ping I need to touch grass.
back in my day I played Halo with a 1300-2000 ping and still whipped ass.
the lama's ass?
I don't believe you. An fps with ping as massive as over 1000 would be straight up unplayable
That's over a full second of delay! In an fps I routinely do split second maneuvers and reactions. If someone I was shooting at wouldn't be able to react to what I was doing for at least a full second, I would easily dominate them every single time
believe it or not. this was early 2000s, so everyone outside of major cities had shitty internet.
I had the fastest connection in my small shit town at 1.5mbps.
I think over 100 starts making your off-gcds clip on FFXIV, and stuff like getting 6 hits properly for Wildfire on MCH(probably some other stuff too). It's not unplayable, but it is frustrating and distracting, so can cause an ADHD person like me significant stress when doing content like Savage raids and Ultimates
Final Fantasy 14? Don't know what MCH is, never heard of Wildfire
Mch stands for Machinist, a ranged gun class in FF14, and wildfire is an attack from said class that gets stronger the more hits you land during its duration. The max hits is 6, but enough lag and you can only get 5 of them off in the window. The game has a default 2.5 second global cool down between skills, though some gear and some skills can reduce that. In particular for Wildfire, you combine it with a skill that allows 5 hits of itself plus 1 other at 1.5s per cool down, but if you're adding another .1 to each of those it can add up to miss unless very tight on timing.
Not a game breaker, but if you're trying to push through your best performance because your group is failing at 1-2% you can't really help not being mad at it.
Edit: in addition, the frustration isn't you personally dying in some pvp, but your group of 8 friends you're also holding back on fights. In addition to lowering damage, deaths can wear down your healers mp(and significantly lower your own damage output) so some tight mechanics can be harder to react, especially if your brain has you move wrong at first. None of these by themselves are terrible, but over the course of 3 hours working at clearing multiple fights it can wear you out and kill your enjoyment.
As an amateur, in a fast paced shooter, vs. an equally skilled player, it went from a fair match with equal pings to one player dominating the other with 100 vs. 70 ping.
that little of a difference really matters? Are you sure that the one with a tiny bit less ping isn't just cheating?
