Taking cover while under fire sucks in MW2.

This is probably the most annoying thing for me in the game.

 

Here's an example of what I'm talking about:

 

 

I'm getting shot, I go behind the wall (well clear of the action) and still somehow get killed. I believe people call this death lag, and, well it sucks. On my screen I was behind the wall, on the killcam, I'm still in the action.

 

I don't know if that was clear, but do you guys have the same happen to you?

You do know that you can shoot through walls in this game? Right? You CAN also do this in real life. It has something to do with force, and energy.

I fully understand what your talking about. That's more than likely what it is. LAG... Sadly unless we get even faster internet were stuck with this. I feel for you man. Best of luck.

Nah my connection is fine, I see this with happen with a few of my friends as well.

 

And yes I do know I can shoot through walls, but sometimes I'm talking about when I try to make a turn around a corner and they still kill me.

Can you just stop trying to get kudos and attention for just one minute and actually READ the thread? Seriously, you really can't have a normal conversation with some of these people on the forums.

I didn't mean your connection. I ment internet speeds in the US as a whole. Were behind at least ten other nations with North Korea being #1 when it comes to internet connection speed. I'm not saying that all the internet in the US is slow but were lagging behind as a whole. Kind of off topic but I Thought I would add that little tid bit.

K people it's not bullet penetration it's the latency between players, and yes this happens a lot. On your screen you're behind cover/inside whatever and on the guy who kill you's screen you're out in the open. There's nothing you can really do about it, it's bound to happen.

Re: Taking cover while under fire sucks in MW2.

I know EXACTLY what you mean dude.

 

I can't chalk it up to lag either, because I only participate in games when I have 4 bars lol

 

 

It could be lag though...

 

But yeah..it's pretty frustrating.

On your screen, you are clearly behind a wall, and you still die....and on their screen you're in the wide open. It doesn't make sense. lol

Exactly, at least some people can understand what I'm talking about.
