Mate, I don't think it's your reactions. I was just kidding. As Gzero says, the others must be doing something you're not. Like that armour shields up thing. Provided you're getting a hit you can rule out lag but if you're not bringing them down then it's a question of maybe where you're hitting them or some suit perk that affects either your damage given or taken as Gzero says.

I think there are some connection issues at the moment, and definitely some big lagging going on.

Thing is I can't complain T2D because my connection is really going well. It feels much less laggy than all the other games that I have trouble with, even though the kill cam shows ridiculous delays at times.

Conversely, my playing buddy has a reasonably stable connection and apart from the odd game has always faired reasonably well. Since playing Crysis 2 he is getting owned big time. Last night he appeared to be hosting and got destroyed 2 and 16. Everybody else in the game had 1 red bar or 2 yellow and he had full green. So the problems could be down to poor match making?

I don't know to be fair, but I'm enjoying it while it lasts. Which probably won't be that long!

Yeah claymores are deadly when you put it in a spot right where someone is likely to be making the decision: shoot or melee.

Its game lag or lag comp not working correctly i like u play fps with a kd of 3 this week on bops so my reactions are fast enough but on crysis i put a full clip in the opponent just for them to hit me with a quick burst (i am on full health btw) and i am gone.
It is a shame as i was hoping for more now back to the cod franchise again i go.

Yeah some people just don't look for them that's their problem! I always have to smile when I see someone's name come up as deceased by my hand when I'm nowhere near 'em. Hehehe.

Do you still play BF2, Gzero? Or don't get the time? Too busy playing other games I expect!

Actually after a few games tonight i am getting the hang of it and finished 2nd in one match and third in another.

I tend to try to have maximum armor but its hit and miss if this actually does anything as i have killed quite a few tonight without even using it.

Looking back at the killcams i think it helps if you don't get into a panic when coming face to face with someone [like me] and try and aim for the head shots as this seems to take people down really quick.

At least its nice to have 10 multiplayer maps unlike the paltry few on offer in Killzone 3 .........That's when they actually rotate correctly.

Wasting my life away in WoW and BC2 <godforsaken lack of teamwork game that it is>.

I might go back to BF2 if there was a good server to go back to. I didn't mind strike at karkand inf only or wake 24/7, but they did get a bit boring after a bit.

What I really need in BF2 is a good gunner for my cobra.
Or a sniping buddy to keep those wacky heavy gunners off me when spotted.

Quick burst indicates lag, happens all the time in BC2:

You: 3 quick dink noises and you die
Reality: Guy empties clip at you, you run around a bit, server says hang on your dead.

Annoying, but it's a sign of the times, network programmers these days do not have a clue.

So, you need a scapegoat and someone to carry your coat. I mean, gunner for a Cobra? Yeah, I can do that. Hope you're a good pilot though.

A little rusty, couldn't compete with the joystick users, but should be still good enough to spam death from the air if it still handles the way I hope it does.
