I will not argue anymore and this is my last post about this, cause most of you ppl know more than i do about pj and pings. I have read all the documentation u quoted in this thread and in theory it all works perfect, but in reality it doesn't. If i understand correctly,there are a lot of variables (some of them u guys have mentioned) and it's not same for everyone:
- u all have said that bigger ping usually means more unstable network, so if ping directly doesn't influence the gameplay, it can indirectly via pj
- but more importantly, i think it depends on a gamestyle of certain players... if ur camping or hide behind boxes or try to surprise ur opponent (i don't say its bad or good way to play) i suppose that the difference isn't that big... on the other hand, if u are a rusher (like me) it really can influence ur achievement in the game cause the input and output are completely too different things, u expect something to happen (even count your bullets) but what u see on ur screen is somewhat different...
to resume, i respect all u guys and what u have to say, i have read the documentation u have posted that reassures us that there isn't any difference playing guys with different pings, but i cannot call something "white" if i see it's "gray"... i never planed to argue about this because i thought it was obvious for u as it is for me, but it appears that it is not... opponent sides will keep defending their points of view no mater what, and i respect that, but i don't see any point to keep searching for unanimous "truth" ;)
