I agree. I bought a sniper rifle that always kills in 2 shots, head or body. If headshots worked, I bet I'd be a lot better in battles.Hells Malice said:I played back in the European closed beta (NA CB was a bitch to get into) before it went F2P.
It's really fun, but without multiple hitboxes...it loses a lot of appeal. No headshots takes a LOT of skill out of combat.
Nope. The only lag I get is fps. I average about 20fps, but that's because my processor is junk.Bently said:I just found out about the Open Beta 2 days ago. Played it and it lags a lot. Is anyone else getting lag? (latency wise)

Have you tried the other server? There's 2 EU servers and 2 US servers(one east, one west).
1. You can't change your character's server. You can have characters on different servers though.Bently said:Odd, I play NA East (corresponding to my location). Would changing it help me?
And the lag I experience is that my charater would many times teleport or jump when I'm moving, so it's certainly not a FPS lag.

2. Is this lag you're experiencing only in vehicles?
TehSkull said:1. Yeah you can have more than one char. I currently have an Enforcer and a Criminal both on US-East.
2. Weird. If it was in vehicles I could have explained that, since vehicles are driven server-sided, not client sided so that people don't get killed by laggy drivers who came outta nowhere.
Lemme see if I can find the ping test URLs that GamersFirst put in one of their blogs.
US West (Los Angeles): 173.195.32.254
US East (Washington DC): 173.195.39.254
Europe (Frankfurt): 173.195.41.254
Ping those. See which one gets you the lowest.
Alright, I'll certainly try it.
EDIT: Right after I finish observing a Starcraft 2 game lol.
EDIT 2:
Here are my results:

Yeah, the game is not like that. Good guns are available for purchase with real money, but equally good ones are available to buy with in-game cash from NPCs.Sausage Head said:much like battlefield: heroesTehSkull said:1. http://www.systemrequirementslab.com/cyri/

if you want to win, you gotta pay at least 100 dollars for 'good' weapons
