Sure, I had the situations in major cities where the screen would be choppy, or lags where you loot a mob and the window takes a few seconds to show up, or even those really strange moments where the screen freezes for 5 seconds, and then thaws out and it looks like every player fires every shot from those previous 5 seconds all instantaneously.<BR/><BR/>But to be able to practically correlate your number of attacks to your latency number is amazing.<BR/><BR/>I wonder what Blizz can do with WoW, or whatever next gen MMO comes next, to make the impact of client/server communication smaller. Network latency is inevitable, so I wonder what they can come up with to design around it.Amavahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01455843297167787383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6728842525831292167.post-66990033490925675902009-03-06T13:06:00.000-05:002009-03-06T13:06:00.000-05:00...

Lightning bolts instead of 4 or 5 to kill a MOB it really stands out.<BR/><BR/>I found that :-<BR/><BR/>6/7 LBs = ~300ms latency<BR/>4/5 LBs = ~200ms latency<BR/><4 LBs = < 200ms latencyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6728842525831292167.post-39475866184045040522009-03-06T13:03:00.000-05:002009-03-06T13:03:00.000-05:00Funny you should mention this.
