    Has lagswitching become legal now ?

    I literaly know 3 guys who plays with lagswitch for at least 1-2 months now, everyday.

    I always told them to stop, cause they'll get banned or something. Yup, as you guessed .. nothing happened ! )

    Not to mention i start to encounter a serious increase of lagswiching players now.

    So, it's OK ? Should we ?

    you didn't hear? Trump passed the bill this morning

    If you know people are lag switching, i dare say its your duty as a For Honor player to screenshot in game text proof and mail it off to ubi. I promise you if your evidence is sufficient enough they will get banned ASAP. I have always reported people using outrageous exploits [for example, invisible character model glitch in r6 siege] directly to live chat and they always prevail so long as you have evidence.

    So basicaly I have to do the job for Ubisoft ? It's not like they don't get reported at least.

    Nobody has the time to police the game, video record it, printscreen, yada yada... we should just get better devs with a better cheat engine I guess...

    Hacked during ranked match

    At the last second after I landed a heavy and was about to do my execution, keep in mind that the x & y option for the execution popped up on my screen and immediately after I was about to press one of my executions the other player phased away from me and got a few pips of health back and then killed me by light spamming me. Even though the match have been decided.

    That is not hacks, that is just lag and can commonly happen without a lag switch

    I was also assuming many times unjustly player X or Y is lag switching but the issue is another reason. Its the lag compensation thats not working fairly good.

    Bad pinged (50+ 200 ms) player getting an advantage in the current settings of lag compensation..

    The OP is implying that he/she personally knows people that use this and admit it? If that is the case, report them.

    People should also know that there are ALOT of people where their rigs are connected via WiFi, and that WiFi will randomly jump up 100+ ping for a few seconds here and there as a normal thing. It will worsen depending on the external interference present.

    That is the impression it gives.
    Even with irrefutable evidence, these players are never ban and continue to play with their lagswitch.
    Today, I've played with my friends in Dominion mode and in the other team, there was an Aramusha which went from 40 to 250+ latency and heavy attacks who have half of their animations.
    In an other game, it was a Warden with teleportation attacks.
    I did nothing to report them, I did not put any effort into it because I know that I would see these players again a few days later and that they will continue to lagswitch without being ban.

    I would like this issue to be taken more seriously but I also know it is hard work.

    yy lagswitch exist XX years ... but this "game" have so small playerbase to ban someone. You can try report, but its just for your good feeling. UBIsh*t do nothing. Same like in other things (login info, balanc etc.)
