Have you ever played a game with high latency (>150ms)? Would you say this created trauma and discouraged the experience, since it takes a long time for your actions to go through?
>>737007609yes because I'm not a fucking zoomer
Seriously what the fuck is going on>activity down by 70%>threads can go 3+ hours without replies without even reaching page 10MAKE THE LAG STOP
>>737007609I dropped RDR2, GTA V and many other hyped 3D games because of latency. It wasn't exactly the same as input lag but the huge delay between your joystick action and your character moving made me drop the games. Just try GTA SA or Bully to compare and you'll notice the difference immediately
>>737007783it's the captcha, I was all paranoid yesterday thinking it was just me at first
>>737007783I miss the comfy early days of /trash/ back in 2016 when a thread would take like 3 days to reach page 10now it's full of generals and threads hit page 10 in like 40 minutes
this shit is so faggoty should all enemies get time stopped when my character is winding up his attack and only get to move when the hitbox comes out? timing your inputs with the delay can be part of the challenge and 1-2 frames of lag barely change that

>>737007609i used to play quake 2 with 180 ping all the time
>>737007935It's not even capcha, I have pass and it still takes like 40+ seconds for my posts to go throughsomething is fucked beyond the capcha
>>737007609I used to play the Synergy mod for Half-Life 2 on servers with 350ms latency. In practice, this meant that during the vehicle segments of Half-Life 2 (such as the airboat and buggy), you'd have a whopping 700ms input latency. So you had to do all your vehicle inputs 700ms in advance. I got surprisingly adept at it.
>>737007935>>737008080It was the captcha yesterday, but today the captcha is working normally for me. It's the actual posting that is hanging up.
>>737007609i used to play quake 3 with 180 ping all the time and that's a super fast paced game

You can fix this by purchasing a 4chan pass.
>>737008080It's the one year anniversary of the 4chan hack. There's a chance the same band of vapid cunts are trying to take the site down again.Oh hey, my post went through twice.
>>737007609Used to play league with perma 200+ ms, it was fine.
>>737008157>You can fix this by purchasing a 4chan pass.FUCK YOU MAKING YOUR WEBSITE SHITTIER WON'T CONVINCE ME TO SPEND MONEY ON IT FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU
>>737008191I also realized that sometime yesterday afternoon, fuckin year went by way too fast
>>737007609I played games online in the early 00sThe novelty was enough to keep me engaged and often the games took this problem in it's design
>>737007982That's why /fur/ is probably a good idea. /trash/ is too full of obsessively monitored general threads for people who insist they're not actually furries, and less obsessively monitored threads for people with weird and gross fetishes.Plus a surprising number of other threads which have no real reason not to be on other boards.It would be nice if /trash/ was slow enough that it was reasonable for good quality threads that actually drift off topic to survive by being moved there.
What geometric factors can we employ for the captcha lag
>>737007609warcraft 2 over fucking DIAL UP.. man, a 300ms ping was considered 'good'. A very few people had cable modems or dorm T1; that was the dream.>tfw 30 years later living in the woods with gigabit fiber.The technological progress since the 90's has been just shy of a miracle. Like if you were to take a developer or hardware engineer from the 1980's and show them a modern computer -- and tell them with a straight face >yeah bro, aliens showed up and taught us a few thingsthey'd probably believe it.
>>737007609I beat the whole nuGoW with crazy input lag. Either the ps4 is shit or my back then new TV couldn't handle it. Some of those axe throwing puzzles took more time than I'd like to admit
>1 hour since last reply>still page 9it's so over
>>737007609wouldn't this just make the game easier for people playing with less latency
>>737007609people can compensate by pressing earlier, you don't have to make the game easier
>>737007783newfags must hang
>>737007609Early MMO gaming would easily have response time of >500ms I coped by playing support/healers where response time didn't matter all that much.
>>737008191Is this just going to be a thing every year now? The 4chan vacation week?
>>7370076098 years old me played the earliest Battlefield games with trash net and an even worse PC, 100 ping was the bare minimum, but usually it was closer to 200, and 30 FPS was the maximum. With barely any English knowledge to look things up, and zero knowledge of how computers actually worked, I tought like half of the players were cheating because no matter how much I shot them they wouldn't die.That shit traumatized me enough to make me dislike the multiplayer FPS genre for like.And it turns out, Battlefield being Battlefield, especially in the Punkbuster days, half of the players were indeed hacking.

/biz/ is working fine
>>737007609I used to have at best 200 ping in any game I played. So I played a lot of tf2 as engie.somehow I ended up hosting a bunch of risky rain multiplayer too because no one else would open their ports
>>737007609I remember thinking a lot of action games on the PS2 sucked, then it turned out the PS2 emulator I used had a fuckload of input lag.
>>737007609idk how i tolerated elden ring that shit is latent and drops inputs constantly. in addition, the roll system has innate delay because you only roll after you release the button
>>737007609I played multiple iterations of TDM and CTF game modes competitively from Quake1 to Quake3 on 56k dialup at around 200ms or higher, including playing the original Netquake which had no movement prediction at all>Would you say this created traumaTrauma didn't exist in the 90s, getting trauma from playing videogames is a modern homosexual invention. Playing on high latency in the 90s taught you how networks worked and made you better at prediction and visualisation because you had to compensate for it manually
>>737007609I used to raid in WoW with 400+ latency because I'm retarded and bought the wrong region game.The first time I've played with "low" ping(90 ms) I almost cried in joyLETMEPOSTHOLY FUCK>CAPTCHA EXPIREDBECAUSE IT TAKES 5 MINUTES FOR A POST TO GO THROUGHWHAT THE FUCK IS HAPPENING ON THIS FUCKING WEBSITE
>>737007609I played a tf2 jump map in hard mode with 200+ ping and some of the jumps were practically rng
>>737017907Apparently so.
