WHen I shoot at anyone in BF2, even though I can see all the dust and hear the shots hit, it doesn't register with the server that I've shot and/or killed my opponent for about half a second. They just stand there for about half a second eating up my bullets and then collapse, meaning that it now takes me half or one whole clip to kill anyone and more than half of those bullets count towards decreasing my accuracy.

I used to enjoy using the G36E because two bursts could kill someone, but now it takes me about five or six before I get a kill because the bullets are just not registering. I now have no idea where hit boxes are. Shooting at someone walking across the screen will most likely fail even if I put my crosshair in front of them and wait for them to walk cross it.

Can anyone help me out? Does it have something to do with interpolation times or something?

The only thing i can put that down to is lag, although theres i high chance that im wrong.

The hitboxes lag behind the player.

No but with my erratic BF2 lag behaviour I can't be sure how far behind the player it is. Also, I'm beginning to feel that the lag causes me to see things significantly later than they occur on the server side. For example, I think by the time I see someone run behind a building, they've been behind it for a while already.

I have a similar problem, I can watch someone throw a grenade my way, and I will be dead before the grenade explodes. Its really weird and has only started since I upgraded my computer.

There is also a thread on these forums about how to fix it already.

Well it should work, just dont try hitting to far behind the player .... adjust for walking or running and with a lil practice you know where the lagging hitbox are !

Around 50 ms. Maybe it's because my brother and I share one router and internet connection on the two computers, and it causes one of us to lag a bit more? But we've ADSL2+ which I'm assuming should be fast enough.
