Laggy Skill Checks.

[Exray]

I have a several problem with the skill checks, for some reason the skill checks gone lag but in the general game I have no lag and is very annoying when all your team dies for a stupid laggy skill check.

As far as I know, skill checks are client-sided.

Skill checks are on your side. If your fps count randomly drops when you get skill check then it is problem with your computer running the game.

Ive had this problem since the engine update. The game runs fine now but sometimes skillchecks just lag alot. If youre near a map border try looking out there rather than towards the middle of the map. Always helps me when i have skillcheck lag

Sucks if MM is the killer though. I usually look towards thd ground if i hear a skillcheck happen

Turn your resolution down to 0%. Helps quite a bit.

Doesn't that make the game blurry or something?

Skill checks are not server based. But, what I would recommend if you have low fps when doing a gen or something I would pan the camera down so your gpu doesnt have to work on the map and just focus on the ground. I typically do this when there is a trash can on fire that is next to the generator because we all know that fire in this game is GPU intensive and FPS draining.

Also, I increased my fps when I turned foliage,AA and post processing to low quality. I play on Medium on 67%

As said before, skill checks are client sided so lag is normally caused by your fps. However, it feels like skill checks are much harder to hit now as before you could get away with a few mm to the left or right and get a great but now thats not happening. Give it some time and lower your settings and it will feel like its back to normal

I have actually the game on 0% (Potato Computer)

Runing the game at 40ishfps, why are the checks laggy? My laptop plays at 20fps and they aren't this laggy. I'm pretty sure there is some type of random bug or something

is it constant fps or does it keep changing numbers. Because there is a difference.

I used the benchmark tool in fraps and its supposed to be hitting like 30fps minimum, and it doesn't feel jittery or inconsistent. Guess it's just another one of lifes great mysteries.

well check if they arent dropping randomly or constantly dropping or raising. Also, I have been told that you do get +5 consistent frames if you remove any monitoring applications.

I'm aware of everything you said. And frame times were consistent throghout benchmark. I know that others are having the problem, and I'm 99% sure it has nothing to do with framerate or performance. Character animation and camera movment are also smooth while doing gens, the skill checks are the only things that are laggy. It isn't horrible, and I can still hit great skill checks, but it's kind of anoying nontheless.

I see. What's your FPS when you are doing gens?
