Railgun

[arun246 67]

Tanki railgun needs to either be removed or reworked. It has this lag effect, even when its not directly pointing at you you still get killed or damaged. This is when your in head to head combat with a railgun. Railgun already has enough damage and it has penetration power that damages multiple targets. It doesnt deserve a glitch that makes it hard to avoid at close ranges. It is a long range weapon not a short range weapon.  Im not sure if this has happened to anyone else, but it happens to me on my laptop, my desktop, at the library. I dont understand how you guys havent bothered to rework this.

It's annoying, but on the other person's screen, they shot you.

On your screen, you seemed to dodge it. However, it's still a hit.

 

Things don't look the same on both computers. . . .One will always be slower because you know, it has to communicate with the server. . .

most likely they have a lower ping than yours and u have higher so just like DidYouKnowThat said it...all I can say is get better computer??

Or just get into cover faster if you know problems like this will occur.

LOOK people this is lag okay? the whats happening on your screen is just a tiny bit before whats actually happening this is a user error that most likely (im not sure) can be fixed by better wifi connection more cache memory in your pc or just a specifically designed gaming computer

Every gun has this lag, it's just that it's more noticeable with Railgun.

My computer is fine, and so is my monitor, i did a speed test and the results were in my case positive. My FPS was 50-60 and my PING was like 80-115. That in my case is not considered lag.

Which country do you live in?

United States or what? Servers are in Russia I believe. . .

No the servers moved to Netherlands/Holland, and this happens to every gun, like Shaft, back before the beam, U know that shaft didnt shoot u, but it acually does....This lag for Rail happens here n there, this rarely happens to me soo....If your PING is 80-115, it can result into some lag, or just a error them servers have sometimes.

[r_DidYouKnowThat0 1,662]

It MOVED to Netherlands/Holland? Ah, cool. . . .Or did they set up another server there? Oh well.

But yup. It can depend on how far you are from the servers and all.

80 ms ping is enough delay to create this visual lag.

OMG. that happens to me all the time. I go like Yay because i thought the guy missed, then KABOOM!

Annoying but certainly amusing.

[XXgamercool_TURBO 14]

the lag is your fault. nothing can be done about it. Although I agree that railgun needs to be limited at closr range

[NatchGa 665]

I hate Railgun, but this is a poor argument to remove it or fix it.

Then make the servers quicker -.-

Such high ping can cause lagg when you don't notice.....

I play with 5-20 ping and sometimes the railgun still damages me without hitting,so this isn't my fault,but the other's,or the server's....

 

[Maf 32,326]

Easier said than done. Not only it takes time, effort and financial resources to upgrade the servers, but you must also have good internet connection on your end. It's definitely not up to me to solve either of those issues.

[NatchGa 665]

wow downvote all my stuff ok I see how it is XD

[jouman13 9]

probably railgun was lagging, and most railgun players are skilled, so they know where is your expected escape when you're trying to trick him, so even if you lag, for that railgun you looked normal, and he shooted you, and it doesn't look like he did. Happened to me many times, but its just lag, don't be afraid of that. 90% of railgun players are skilled, and they can hit you when you circle around them.

[Maf 32,326]

Railgun doesn't need reworking as the "ability to shoot through walls" is not an actual ability, but a visual glitch caused by lag. Every gun has it, but it's more noticeable with Railgun since you can see the trajectory of the shot.
