    player host

    ok....question:
    why do not (in lobby and score-tab) show player host? ...for example by "red" color name???....we know who has the advantage!!!
    might be useful? I'm seeing impossible scores : 43 kills 0 deaths cheat? or player host?

    43:0 isn't impossible, I've come close to it myself. Sometimes it's just that lucky game where people aren't as quick to respond and you just mow them all down, along with getting rezzes from your teammates if you do go down. The gun you use helps a lot as well, for instance the MP5 and the BZ19 are really easy to use guns that can really get you a lot of kills with little to no deaths in pretty much any match so long as you never put yourself in a position where you are getting shot at from a distance. Those guns mow people down with hip firing in close quarters, but if you try to have a shootout with someone from any type of range you will 95% of the time die, simply because there is no accuracy to speak of outside of close quarters.

    Sometimes very rarely you will get ultra lag games, I had one a few days ago, there was a huge delay on everything, but with my MP5 at the time, I managed to score over 30 kills with no deaths simply because my gun shooting them was registering before anything else, more than likely they hadn't seen me on their screen yet and when they did it was already over because i had already fired a few shots.

    Because of the effects player hosting can have with lag, it can really seem like someone is cheating when they really aren't, for instance I've been called a cheater before, they wouldn't say why I was a cheater, they probably were just mad that I was killing them so quickly and escaping from them easily, giving me a high kill count with a very low death count, There wasn't any more lag in those matches than any other regular match, so it was more their own inexperience and the fact i was getting in close to them with a BZ19.

    But the issue of lag affects everybody, it's not just a handicap to yourself, but for everyone as well, including those doing well. I get killed by invisible enemies all the time, or getting killed in places I wasn't even in at the time.

    I'm sorry, but that wasn't very coherent. Please, feel free to clarify.

    I think the host is chosen randomly when the map starts loading.

    I found recently that I was left alone after a lobby emptied, but then when players joined and we started the game my connection was showing 1 red bar.

    Quite absurd too, there was a predominant bunch of us English and French in chat but it seemed to give the host to a minority the other side of the globe - either that or the player with the slowest machine and connection?

    The problem with highlighting the host ingame is that they'll get a ton of lag abuse from half the players because of this daft randomness. A better method IMO would be for the Host to be the longest serving player in the lobby and have a latency guage so we would know whether to stay for the game or shove off.

    Regarding scores, the best players I've seen stick together in large groups and survive confrontations reviving each other. Doing that also gives them constant scouting opportunities thus they pretty much own the map.

    My tip is if you have a team mate scoring well then stick to them like glue and they'll probably keep you alive.

    well...i think so....but ..........never die is very abnormal : much suspicion as impossible*

    *with professional camper on the corpses, waiting for resuscitation!!!

    and in any case by now the situation is uncontrolled: must be a way to create common mod lobby :
    grenades and unlimited ammo:
    armor for immortality;
    team where shooting blanks;
    running and
    charging weapon speed, double ;
    players from triple speed
    not show who kills who
    c4 and grenades do not work!!!!!!!!!!
    team support
    do not work!!!!!!!!!!
    no rescue admitted


    who create these lobbies?


    full
    increase cheaters, no defense !!! thanls ubisoft

    mrtmrc you are a hypocrite! Sad excuse for a man or boy, whatever you are. Stop complaining about hackers in this forum because you do it yourself. You can't deny it because everyone saw you. Running around with a pistol, shooting across map and through walls. With me standing directly in front of you, you still managed to get multiple kills. I wish someone would ban you from the forums and the game. Stupid, stupid, stupid.
