To day at the new CG i was attacked buy a player in the high res but no one was there. My shield was being swalloed up in a fashion akin to being hit with a volly of plasma but no ship was to be seen.
In most games this would be a good sign your dealing with a cheater.. but not this game.. in this game this is just how things are. The level of wonky server interaction lately has become a hinderance to my enjoyment of the game.
I have 50 meg broad band and a computer skynet, would be envious of. This cant be my falt. But i do dread to think that people have been on the reciving end of this sort of thing unbeknown to me at the time.
I often encounter ghost damage and ghost rams, some times to the extreme, in terms of how far off what i see going on and what the damage i recive indicates.
I often see npcs jump and rubberband accross huge arias and behaving in insaine ways that indicate that its a server issue of some kind.
Can some thing be done?
I know p2p. And i know thats not going to change but if this is the cost of p2p it was not worth it! And i still think, things can be better inspite of p2p.
I would rather the galaxy seem a bit emptier but the people i see have a good connection, than have to play server Russian roulette and hope i dont get put into an instance with some 56k modem jocky i cant see. Cant we have a ping limmit or a region toggle?
I dont know what it realy is that leads to these crazy peoblems and i dont know what the fix is but there must be something?
The last game i played with this kind of problem, was COD and i havent played that since world at war. i havent payed them a penny of my money in protest since. But at least it was 16 players. Often there is only 1 or 2 other players in the instance and i still see plasma launch off at 90deg from me and then register as having hit. And ships fly past me and register as a ram even though i was miles from them.
