Someone Explain

I have a video, and anyone please leave your comments and thoughts on what just happened. I know about latency, but i feel like lag had to play a big part. IDK

    Latency is lag. Or, more specifically, latency creates lag. What happened there was simply that either your ping or the killer's was slightly high, so the hit appeared to connect from further away than it should.

    They're introducing server-side hit detection in the near future, which hopefully will go a long way towards making situations like this feel more fair.

    Not sure why this stuff happens. Today the pig was like 10 feet in front of me with her back facing me and somehow I got hit.

    These types of smacks look completelly fine from the killer side. That box for example from that distance is a death sencence. You should have know you’ll go down a second you used it to break the chain.

    @Gomolazoli wasnt talking about the chain break was talking about the first hit were he just glides around the corner and hits me that part is what confused me
