If you are getting chased by someone, you drop behind something pull out your AA-12 and get your sound whore on, you think you're going to get the kill, because obviously you're prepared to shoot, he has to stop aim and shoot. But somehow, even though you pull the trigger first, you don't even get a hitmarker, and he's got you dead, and he's left you screaming at the TV.

I'm sure many times, unless you pull host a lot, you've had a similar experience. You watch the kill cams, and say what the hell, that's not what happened on my screen. I know I do.

If you want to test it out, find someone who lives in a different country or somewhere far away from you to set up a private match. Go in and run at each other and knife at the same time, and see who gets the kill 95% of the time.

I think connection matters in this game more than your actual skill. Though some people are obviously good, and also have a good connection. A bad player can out shoot you if you have a worse connection than he does.

What do you guys think?

Yeah I meant the host, He can have the worst connection in the world but he'll keep a 5 bar connection even though everyone else lag, If you were talking about other people with a bad connection, maybe they're just trying keep a good W/L R? :p

oh ok well i dunno w/l doesn't matter to me, that depends on your team and you can be on a team with people who suck or people who are really good or you can have good people on your team and even better on the other, so that isn't really a ratio for yourself UNLESS you play cage match only i guess
