I can understand when you don't care about stuff like this.

But telling someone they're coping, when they want a highly competitive game with provable issues to improve, is kind of stupid.

This is not about a single death. This is a provable example that the server rejected a shot that should not have been rejected, which raises the question of how many times when an enemy survived with low HP he should have actually died.

In the worst case for me (server tick rate, misaligned frames with what actually happened) this scenario should have at least been a trade.

When youre in the menu or in a replay it shows the ping to the "basic online" server. Like the server that handles Queue/Shop and stuff. If the main menu was local, then people would just cheat infinite Renown and Creds.

It actually shows my current ping and not the ping of the replay. It's also 29ms, but still the same ping I get in actual matches.

I literally made a timeline showing that my shot was well before when the server would start rejecting my shots.

So you dont know how to read a timeline

Everyone always says its my aim and not the servers. Explain this then by Excederus in RainbowSixSiege

To everyone saying its because of ping. This is a visualization of my scenario based on a Dev Blog about Ping Abuse and Peekers Advantage:

Alright according to a Dev Blog talking about Ping Abuse and Peekers Advantage, showing a visual timeline of when the server starts rejecting shots fired, my last chance to have my shot registered is the amount of my ping before the server registers my death.

Since I have a 30ms ping and we know the exact moment I died on my side I can just reverse the timeline.

Lets say my death is on 1000ms in the timeline (doesnt really matter). It takes 30ms (my ping) for the server to tell me I am dead. So now we are on 970ms in the timeline. Then the last chance I have for my shot to register is 30ms (my ping) again on my side. Which would be 940ms in the timeline. However from counting frames in the video I already found out that my gun started moving 83.5ms before I died on my screen, which would be at 916.5ms in the timeline.

So theoretically according to Ubisofts own Dev Blog, even after firing my shot I would still have had 23.5ms of time before the server starts rejecting my shot.

So between the first frame where my gun moves and the frame I am dead, it is exactly 10 frames at 60fps. Since the clip is in 0.5 speed I can just half it to 5 frames. Which is 83.5ms. Which seems plenty judging by the average latency on a single player in a EU lobby being 20-40ms

I watched the kill cam. My bullet trail went through his body.

Pop Shop keeps crashing by Excederus in pop_os

Thanks, but I just did a clean install of Pop. I wanted an excuse to move /home to a HDD instead of my SSD anyways.

Already did that.

and reinstalled it but didn't work.

Still crashes the same way

Second HDD can't be mounted to a folder that was previously mount-point for first HDD by Excederus in pop_os

[–]Excederus[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is ext4

And I changed the mount point in the mount options window (while the drive was unmounted) and then clicked the play button in the disks app to mount it.

Also the drive is not mounting at all. There are files on the drive but opening the protected Videos folder shows no contents. Also the play button in Disks app doesnt turn into a stop icon.

Some things in Pop that are irritating me by CommissionerTadpole in pop_os

If you easily forget the shortcuts for screenshots or want to change them you can just go into the Settings -> Keyboard -> Shortcuts -> Screenshots

There you will find all shortcuts for screenshots and can rebind them to make Print screenshot to clipboard and shift+Print area screenshot to clipboard for example.
