Came across this little gem...

Source Multiplayer Networking
I'll just get to the part I found interesting.
| Network latencies and lag compensation can creates paradoxes that seem illogical compared to the real world. For example, you can be hit by an attacker you can't even see anymore because you already took cover. What happened is that the server moved your player hitboxes back in time, where you were still exposed to your attacker. This inconsistency problem can't be solved in general because of the relative slow packet speeds. In the real world, you don't notice this problem because light (the packets) travels so fast and you and everybody around you see the same world as it is right now. |

Sure, this nonsense exists in other games, but none so pronounced as CSS.
Hey look! CSS Update...
...cs_assault.
Almost care.
Call me when the fix this game.
PS. Yes, I need another thread to rant about how much this game sucks. I also need to point out that I played it the other day with Alk. Ended up watching the history channel instead.
History Channel > CSS
In fact, I'd rather do physics hw then play source.

This is how games over the Internet work. What are you trying to prove?

I know that's how they work.
I've never seen another game as bad as the picture in the article. They might exisit, but I've never played them.

I get what you are saying, I was just pointing out that your argument sucked.
Here is something more interesting.

From my experience, I dont think that it is all that bad, but what do I know?

I thought the pic was just an exaggerated example.

Sure, my argument might have sucked, but I didn't put much effort into it. I saw when I was reading about the Steam update, as its not like I go looking for this stuff.
