Exploiting late rendering

Have this even been established as an issue ? Not trying to be cocky here, but I have only heard one person who has mentioned it tbh.

People are so fast to judge and yell exploiter, scammer etc - But have this been established as a real issue or is this one individual having this problem with his setup ?

Upon entering pvp areas, just make it turn your avatar into a generic model. No more bickering about size, hitbox benefits, textures rendering, etc. Easy fix.

And ā€œdebunkedā€ by a circlejerk.
If it creates a ā€œfirst strike advantageā€ in a system where it takes 1-2 shots to down someone, its an issue, and should be addressed (like render model first and cosmetics last).
Or at least made public so everyone can make themselves a ā€œpvpā€ mask for an even field (probably even better this way as a ā€œmechanicā€, unless it can be mass exploited to lag out servers).

No need to be dismissive but its not a new thing. Doesn’t have anything to do with my setup.

Again, believe it or don’t, makes no difference to me. But I made it public, maybe something can be done about it.

This was the whole point.

Not about being dismissive, but I have honestly not heard about this being an issue from anyone else.

I and many others (from all sides, not just in our society) have been using facemasks for years - Not like we are taking them on for PVP purpose, but have been using them for several years - Honestly I didn’t even think about my face mask until you made this thread.

It would be awesome if you or someone else would be so kind as to make a video of this - Since I have not experienced it (And I’m pretty sure people on the other side can have masks on as well)

I’m sorry to say that this is an issue for me.
When I get within rendering range of certain players, I lag out for several seconds.
Their cheat clearly works for them.

Since my great PvP days, I am now almost a quarter of a century older.
Time has taken its toll, and today my reflexes and PvP skills suck hard.
Being a sitting duck for everyone else for several seconds certainly doesn’t help either.

Yet, it seems some players still feel the need to have this advantage over me to prevail.

Can confirm Evey is long time mask wearer and would probably continue to do so if it was a disadvantage in pvp.

This is not about a single one player and I make no claims against specific players.

Masks should be auto-unequipped in PVP.

Also, I am selling a Halloween 2016 (M) mask if anyone is looking for a PVP edge :sniper:

EDIT: mask is no longer available. It sold shortly after I posted this.

Sorry, but without some solid video proof I can not confirm masks are bugged out. Jokes aside, yesterday for instance i have whole world turn blue, flicker, disappearing avatars, hitting avatars damage not accounting, and i do not blame anyone, game is like that and it is what it is.

There is video from someone trying to shoot me like year ago, and on his screen he had the same problem, like everyone do every LG, textures objects everything gets messed up when game is played faster. Also want to note i do not wear any masks or underwear :slight_smile:
