BF2S Forums BF2/2142 Hit reg fix

What's next, sounds.con is a placebo?

The X may show up making it look like you have hit the person however it does not mean the server has registered the hit itself.

The changes are purely placebo affects.

This never happens.

These changes just graphically make it look like something different is happening.

I think the point he's trying to make here is, the information you send out regardless these settings is the same - however whatever values you set can have an effect on how models are displayed, hence because in most cases apart from TVing you don't aim for a lagged hitbox, you'll notice more 'reg' because hitboxes are closer to the models displayed.

That's how I see it anyway.

english players and their hitreg problem..

Because you've been saying that shit forever and not really meaning it.

You're all bad.

What shit? The Aus is bad stuff?

I love to provoke people especially Acme, he makes me giggle :^)

I tried this, found it helped a lot in servers I would get a 100 ping in, but servers I had a 60 ping in it made no difference. 

I had less dust shots, much less.

Overall I like it!  I'll use it in servers I have bad hitreg, a lot easier than typing it all in all of the time!

I think it's abit of both, i still use it in the hope of a miracle.

I don't think the usersetting change is placebo I normally get 5-30 ping on all servers I play on and had my usersettings to 0.04 ping and 1200, 400 for over a year straight I reinstalled Windows and BF2 last week and left default usersettings (1200, 100- I still changed ping to 0.04)  and the hitreg does change, as a sniper I noticed all my bullets took longer to register a hit on an enemy (especially moving) which made hitting moving targets a lot harder, changed it back to 1200, 400 and its back to the way it was the bullets hit instantly. Maybe it's because I'm used to it with the 400 setting I suppose if someone was used to default settings and then changed them, their aim may be off and think their hitreg is worse
I don't know what the numbers mean but surely they mean something otherwise they wouldn't have the usersettings file?

i played a bit of 2142 before. and the hit reg is awful compared to BF2

what is 2142 like compared to bf2? is it worth buying if i have been playing bf2 for a while

In my opinion, after playing a good year of BF2, I picked it up during the holidays.

It is slower than BF2. After playing 2142, and going back to BF2, it feels like the BF2 soldier is a roadrunner. Less sprint in 2142, unless you unlock two upgrades to improve your run speed and recovery rate.

Less vehicles. There are no jets, nor helicopters really. The two have been molded into one hovercraft vehicle, carrying two. It can fly at high speeds like a jet, or hover like a heli when you need it. Gunner position has chain gun and TV missile guided by your mouse movement, not clicks. Driver has "hydra missiles" that follow enemy aircraft or devastate ground targets with a full barrage of rockets.

Transport helis carry more, and has two miniguns on the side. They are devastating, but only when flying slow or when landed. They can zoom in a fair bit to better focus on targets, and the turn radius of the gun is grand.

Invulnerability BS. Tanks, APCs, transport craft and attack craft don't have smoke or flares. They have a green shield that encompasses the whole of the vehicle, protecting it from fire. The trans and attack craft are still vulnerable to some fire from the tank's top gun, but chances are they'll get away without a scratch.

Upgrades. Sure it might be rewarding to unlock all of the other equipment, but I think it takes too much time to get them all. You have to unlock three other things to get a new gun. They might be handy, but sometimes they're useless.

Those are my opinions. You can read more about the changes from 2 to 2142 here: http://forums.bf2s.com/viewtopic.php?id=77390
