Netcode of Quake Champions confirmed shit.

To sum it up:
>Inconsistent
>Rubberbanding
>Low ping players get show behind cover
>Buggy
>Packets tied to fps which causes all kinds of issues

It was supposed to be "Low ping players get shot behind cover"
Am I reading this right? There is up to 100ms delay on your actions?
Wow, who would have thought?
I don't think this surprises anyone. They outsourced work to a shit tier slav dev team, so either they didn't give a shit, didn't want to spend a lot of money on it or both.

>take a game where netcode is the most crucial thing for the game doing well and surviving
>give it bad netcode
What did they mean by this?

That's completely normal though as it is a consequence of lag-compensation which is the norm in FPS netcode.
On a client in an FPS game, every world-entity that is synchronised with the server is not displayed in real time but it's displayed usually 50 - 100ms in the past. The reason for this is to make sure that the client receives an updated positional update from the server in order to smoothly move the object around by interpolating between the previous and the current state. When firing at such a target, the client sends a time-stamp with the command which the server can use to check whether the client had lined up his shot correctly and thus score it as a hit.
Your opponent has seen you for the exact same time as he would have had if the game were taking place in real time and he has hit you just the same way - it just took longer for his hits to count. The low-ping player still has the advantage because he could have killed the high-ping player BEFORE his hits would have count.
Don't get me wrong - Quake Champions does not have a good netcode, but unlagging hitscan weapons is most definitely not the issue here as it's done in literally EVERY fps.

>in an arena shooter
Literally unacceptable. Look at shit like this, this guy does 180s and frags people in the span of a few frames, things like this would be literally impossible with that delay.

They mean that you should pony some sheckels and buy some loot boxes, goy.
>free to play game is bad
Wow, call all the news stations, we have a real scoop here!
The game is already dead.
