Lag reduction, lead aiming, ect.
#1
Honestly, I don't like the fact that, to hit someone, you have to aim somewhere OTHER than their body.  But I like the game and don't want to quit playing, but I'm tired of people making fun of people who can't lead aim.  I'm sick of lag and I suck at lead aiming.  Can someone put some tips for lead aiming and reducing lag because I am getting tired of dying ALL the time in FC and not being able to kill the proclaimed good regulars.

noobs are no problem, but i'm sick of fucking dying all the damn time anytime I fight someone who has like 500+ f*cking hours on the game or the regulars who continue to shoot me when I don't fight back and then, when I try to get revenge, they kill me in a strait fight.

Madd killed me for no reason like 3 times when I wasn't even fighting back and then again in a strait fight after I called him lucky after a car hit and launched me 500 yards away when we were fighting and he got the win.  Shit like that pisses me off and I'm tired of just getting told to lead aim or that it's lag and the best ANYONE has tried to teach people about it was a picture by Benji like 6 months ago.

Lead aim is no biggie to be honest Lynexon :)
If you have like for example, erm, [W]Maddolis. I have to aim maybe 4-5 cm ahead to hit him on my screen.
You just gotta dodge and find his 'Hitbox'. If you found that, you will know exactly what to do ;)
Then it's just a matter of time about dodging his bullets with a good movement, and figure out his own movement (makes it even easier).

Like, if you know he's gonna turn, and you remember his 'Hitbox', you will also know where to aim eventually.
It's pretty easy when you get it.

The best thing to do is check out a movie somewhere posted here on the forums. I'll put it here:

Or just look at some Deathmatch footage on youtube or whatever, or media dump.

that video was good.  thnx.  I still hate lead aiming (but what can I do xcept get better at it :/ ).  It seems that you have to lead aim more on lvp than on some other servers, but that's just bc it's a full map server prolly. 

but yea, having to lead aim is the only thing I don't like about sa-mp (besides naders, haxors, ect) but like I said, I don't want to just quit playing bc of that.

Don't worry you can get used to lead aim pretty fast. I don't even "have" to lead aim anymore. I'm just so used to it it's all I do lol.

Glad to see I have some fans.

Lynexon you gotta see this from the flipside of the coin.

NINETY NINE PERCENT OF THE TIME I kill someone, they always cry on about my ping, tell me that I'm nothing without my ping, and that my lag saves me.

There's about 10 fighters I've come across that have NEVER used my ping as an excuse. (fyi Makaveli is one of those 10)
Out of the thousands of different people that I've fought and killed in my time in sa-mp.
If you can't lead aim, then you can't aim. Simple as that.
A 60 pinger vs a 60 pinger still doesn't shoot right on the body.

So before you start crying about how hard it is for you, think for a bloody second about how hard it is for us.
We put up with this crap ALL the time ingame, when we have ZERO advantage whatsoever.
Nobody can simply accept the fact that maybe we have some skill after months of playing the game, and maybe we are actually good fighters.

When I was a new fighter I didn't create a thread whining about lead aim- I just went out and learned it- and by this time I've got somewhere.

Here's what happened, in straight English:
I saw Lynexon. He's an LVM- a clan I'm not on good terms with (honestly I'm really only on good terms with [W] and [UvH], some [BA] fighters and a few other randoms).
So I shot at him. It's a shooting game, please don't cry about it.
A truck hit him and launched him really far away (out of range of my sawnoffs and uzis, so I guess he was the lucky one in that incident). I ran up to him and eventually killed him.
Later, he approached the fc and I shot at him and killed him, no big deal.
Then we duelled. I ripped him with something like half armour left- as expected, and of course he whined about ping.

I killed you for no reason?
The reason is it's a killing game. And I kill in a killing game.
