Why is leeway a game killer

The server, at the datacenter.

And how does it do that?

I said a hip hop
The hippie to the hippie
The hip hip a hop, and you don’t stop, a rock it
To the bang bang boogie, say up jump the boogie
To the rhythm of the boogie, the beat
A skiddleebebop, we rock, scooby doo

So… my original statement stands:

Mendedsoul-magtheridon · July 10, 2019, 6:50pm

Sry that was just my fun way of saying hops… ping hops.

I can make my packets lie to record an initial 300ms of fake travel time… super easy… I literally have the code for it on a work server.

So if I add an intercept on my connection that tells any packet going to a Blizzard IP that it took 300ms more than it did, I can have an extra amount of reach at all times, undetectable.

Mendedsoul-magtheridon · July 10, 2019, 6:53pm

No, not possible.

Eloraell-moon-guard · July 10, 2019, 6:54pm

Ah huh.

Mendedsoul-magtheridon · July 10, 2019, 6:55pm

read post 84 or 85, if u do that you would be at a disadvantage.

Buddy, you need to just pay your 15 bucks a month and play the game as best you can. You are way out of your league. Your ridiculous bragging has already trashed what credibility you might have had, you’re just making things worse.

Mendedsoul-magtheridon · July 10, 2019, 6:57pm

I’m way out of my league here indeed. Two infinity and beyond!

Mendedsoul-magtheridon · July 10, 2019, 7:03pm

Now, if you have anything that will make it so I can game with true 0ms I’m all ears baby!

Eloraell-moon-guard · July 10, 2019, 7:04pm

Not until Blizzard sets up the Loping server.

Mendedsoul-magtheridon · July 10, 2019, 7:06pm

Looks like we’re going to have to Elope two different kinds of servers for that. lol

“Insert reason” will kill classic

Araulura-emerald-dream · July 10, 2019, 8:57pm

Seems like this is less of a problem with leeway and more how leeway interacts with their new-old spell batching system. I’m not really a fan of spell batching as it is now. It makes abilities feel “floaty” and laggy. I probably didn’t notice spell batching back in 2005, but that was one of the first things that I noticed on the stress test.

Mendedsoul-magtheridon · July 10, 2019, 9:11pm

Because spell batching was in the game, just not the way they’ve implemented it in Classic.

With our current tech, 200ms windows are incredibly easy to react to, especially for pro players. Even ppl at 40 years old can average a 200ms reaction time. They should set it to 100-150ms windows for better accuracy and a truer vanilla experience. Imagine going up against those 14-21 year olds with <100ms reaction speed.

it needs to be fixed.

Galdor-maelstrom · July 12, 2019, 9:55pm

Nah, it’s fine.

Maybe blizzard can lock my dpi to simulate a ball mouse and make every other key on my keyboard work to simulate my small childlike hands. Oh and no keybinding on mmo mice cause the average player didn’t have those in Vanilla. #nochanges
