Hey guys,
So, I've been playing some MW2 multiplayer lately and noticed something. The best example I can think of is a mid-range encounter. I'll aim my M16 (I mentioned that, because the gun is one of the more accurate ones) using the iron sights and fire a 3 shot burst right at the opposing player's chest. I'll hear the gun fire, and I'll also see it on screen. Just before the second burst (0.28 seconds between bursts) I'll die.
Typically, not a problem. However, on his killcam, he is not even hit. Now, I'm no noob, I know how to aim so I know those shots hit him square in the chest. So for him not to be even damaged when I saw and heard the gun go off, and even after 0.25 to 0.5 seconds later, I know something is amiss.
So I looked into my lag. All green bars and no one else with any significant lag, so things look okay on that front.
Then I looked into my monitor. It turns out the 2405FPW from Dell is one of the worst for input lag. Could that explain what I experienced? If so, looks as though I'm getting a new one.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
