The thing is you can't even explain that with lag. Its like some mumbojumbo.

The main lag issue I've been getting lately relates to hit registration.  I'm often shown that I've done 200-300 damage on something with 125 health (perhaps a slightly missed ZPG plus an entire magazine for example) and they seem to have taken zero damage.  I'd guess it's the same issue.  My suspicion is that the true issue is latency - causing what happens on your screen to be different from what the other player sees, and neither is what actually happened according to the server.

Re: Please explain

Have you been experiencing this issue lately?  I've been seeing it for about a month or so.  Sometimes a lag spike will cause you to put out more shots than you are supposed to.  Several times I've benefited strongly from this.

 

Examples:  double ZPG; four or five shots in a burst from super commando.

yeah those examples... or also had happened to me millions of times where i was Soldier at zombie side playing TT.. and chomper(s) was digging up his way to chomp me, so as usual i press the 2 for the Rocket Leap to go into the air and eventually escape the chomper.. but nope.. hes digging his way up into the air as me, and catches me even in the mid air, so then for sure i know was lag.. :D

It feels even worse when it happens while using tank commander.
