Question

Recommended Posts

Hey all,

 

Currently when iam playing i have a problem and i wish to know is it my computers/connection or if it is server problem.

When i fight in raids/sade/helds or even just 1vs1 my char never seems to hit a moving char. EVER.

 

Lately when i play i have to wait untill an elv stops just so when i swing damage/hit dose occur. Even in big fights when ares out numbers elv and elv are running for there lives, i could stand in front of them with dozen other ares also attacking/chasing, with the elv running toward me, i swing as he is in front of me, then as he is next to me, then when behind me (as if he is running past me) and no hit occurs or when a elv is standing still and i run next to him, by the time my swing happens he is more then 2 spaces away. The only times i seem to actually hit people are when they are still. Correction it seems The only way i can HIT someone is if they let me hit them by not moving

 

Now i know that when people run there is less chance of hit and less damage due to them running etc. but i use a anc. hp 77% hammer. and still i never seem to hit people unless they are standing still , but every elvine can take half my life easier then a fat man eating macca's when i run. even mages hitting me with ms10 wands have more of a chance to hit a running person then me. Last time i tryed to pvp, a mage hit me 5 times with a *censored*en dk6 wand and hit everytime but me with a hp77 anc. hammer, dm5, dragon ring, dex+6 and zero hits (i was killed in 3 blizzards and i didnt get 1 hit in)

 

now dose this occur due to my computer or server?

I have spoken with my internet provider and they tell me that my connection is fine and strong, not a problem with it. my ping is anywhere from 230-245.

 

I did create a video of what what iam talking about, but as someone sent me a virus (something called a trogen and one called a worm.), the computer store guys said they had to delete some info that was way too corrupted and all my videos and porn got deleted, so i dont have the video to show you. sorry.

 

Please if anyone can help me out, it would be much welcomed

 

thankyou for your time

Your issue is delay, as you have 230+ ping like you're saying, this causes your problem.

The moment the player is next to you on your screen, he's probably already moved to another spot because you're 230 milliseconds behind on the server's information.

When you click to hit, and send your command to the server, you're actually already 230 + click time + 230 milliseconds heind, which results in aprox 500 milliseconds, which is HALF OF A SECOND behind on the server's actual information when your "attemp to hit" reaches the server again.

 

The issue of delay is likely UNFIXABLE by any side, not client, nor server side.

There is however one way to reduce the amount of delay, and that's by moving physically closer to the server (as speaking of moving to another country).

Due to the japanese disaster from last march, delays towards asia and australia have been increased ALOT because much internet hardware infrastructure has been destroyed, this is something outside of our power and will, so we can't fix that.

 

Another way is to work the delay and predict where the char wil run and already click in advance to hit him, this is what most people call "skills", the ability to predict your enemy and already be ready to counter what he'll be doing.
