I know that when you zoom in with the sniper or ramjet rifle you don't run anymore you walk. And when I'm in a game zoomed in on another sniper and he is zoomed in on me as well if he walks he becomes really jumpy, like the walk isn't smooth the guy is teleporting 2 feet or so back and forth rapidly, but he is moving in one direction. I guess it's lag of some kind it it seems to happen with some players consistantly and not others. So I was wondering if this is because......
1. My computer is laggy
2. Their computer is laggy
3. The server is laggy
4. It's just a small problem with Renegade itself
5. Or any combonation of these
just wondering.....

It's a problem with Renegade itself. It almost seems like your client thinks the guy is supposed to run, and the server says he walks... they just disagree on the speed and it creates that effect. If you host non-dedicated, the snipers don't shake which is a huge advantage for hosts.
I'm the bawss.

They move less and less side to side if the nur is higher. It is actually good because it would be way to fucking easy to hs someone walking. Try hosting- that what'd be like.

It is a handy way of seeing if someone is Bigheading though. People with Bighead have no need to zoom in, but playing Legit you need to for distances. So, next time your about to accuse someone of Bigheading, watch them first, if they "flicker" They may not be bigheading, but if they're getting a HS every fucking time, well, that sort of incriminates them.

What are you talking about ACK, it takes even more skill to hit someone flickering around than someone who would just move back and forth.
Also, note that the way you move side to side when you're in your scope affects the way you "flicker." Good snipers will seem harder to hit because they have a really good technique.
Tip: turn your scope on and off constantly, this makes your movements even jerkier and harder to hit.
PS: Easy with the GD's ACK....

10kbps server, you really owned me :rolleyes:
If you don't know how to snipe someone moving then don't long range. If anything is luck its close range.

You're an idiot. If I remember correctly, YOU are the shitty sniper. I owned your ass in a sniper game before. I keep a kill\death ratio of above 4.0. Can you say the same, asshole?
I didn't think so, STFU. You don't even know how the engine works, yet you sit there and blather on about it.

LMAO LMAO LMAO yea right :rolleyes: ACK own homey's sniper yea ok i played with you once and you couldnt own my sniper (not that i could own yours cuz i suck at sniping) but homey would rip you apart.

Ack just can't take a loss. Not many snipers beat me long range. So you mean you can only hit people walking into walls or standing still, thought so.
