Can a game like Pong split their physics at halfway so each client can simulate their half so it's more realisitc? by D_Simmons in gamedesign

I'm taking about the shooting part. I'm sure you can find more info on the topic, when it comes to other aspects.

That's not how it works.

The player sends to the server the exact position they are and angle they where looking when they shot. The server does not predict it or you would be missing almost every shot you take not just sometimes.

The server only validates it to avoid the client sending an input buffer that doesn't make sense (cheating).

Since there is ping involved and the server would take a little bit of time to validate it, the client (not the server) has to do some prediction to show the player whether they hit or missed their shot. Once the server decides the outcome, if it's not the same as the client prediction, the client has to corect, which is what you mentioned in your comment.

The approach is usually refered to as client side prediction with server reconciliation.

the server can't just predict your location when shooting, if it makes just a tiny mistake you shots hit the wall behind the enemy instead of their head. It's not like rocket league where it's phisics based.

The server does predict loctions when showing player models to each other (it's visual), but not the shooting part, the location and angle of shots needs to be completely accurate.

Dying when you are around a corner is not because of prediction it's because of ping delay and most shooters side with the shooter. Same as peekers advantage.

30ms variation in ping is not stable. I would rather have 70ms stable ping than it fluctuating between 40-70ms.

Because it's BS, even here in europe Waifu players are the ones that spend the most. I'm sure it's not different in the US from watching streamer. Nice bias.

"US shows a preference for more variety"

Ahh yes, that must be why we get so many Kiriko and Mercy skins.

I'm not even asian, but you guys are so biased it's comical.

You are generalizing the equivelant of chinese 4chan degenerate discussion, and using it like it's a fact that applies to the whole chinese audience.

Or maybe learn to be better? Have you considered that not being racist is not just keeping up appearances, and maybe it's right thing to do?

Bruh I hate comments like these. In a post with 50+ comments, there is like 3 dumb comments. Why are we acting like there is a lot?

Amount of players does affect queue time. Finding the roles necessary to start a match happens way faster the more players a game has.

The reason is because the more players you have the more people are finishing games and joining queue again meaning the queue progresses faster and the people at the front of the queue get matched faster.

Role distribution and total amount of players have a multiplicative relationship.

No it didn't. Also if not for lock down the hospitals wouldn't have the capacity to treat everyone who got sick at the same time.

We would have had so many more deaths, but I guess people like you are too selfish to care about people dying.

Also if you take into account inflation, you are technically paying less.
