Equity (a fair fight)

It is my intention to make it known that not all players are given the chance to have a fun experience. If you host servers that have rankings, shouldn't all have a shot based on talent? Well that is not the case I'm afraid. The top ranking always go to the lower ping players, they have an unfair advantage. It is not always possible geographically for players to have super fast inet, they have the want to play a decently fair game however.
I call for servers to throttle lower ping players to comparably match to higher ping players so as to fairly match them, or setup servers with a max ping to accommodate the low ping players apart. Then rankings can reflect true talent, not who can get best inet.
It is my intention to push this all the way, even if it changes or destroys competitive gaming. -
I think they all should just remove all the rankings and everything based on "skill" or more known as ping, or they can make a worse system than that, and make low ping and high ping servers.

If your internet is bad then deal with it or don't play with a competitive mindset.
No one is gonna introduce lag to players with decent internet just so people from Venezuela can play on EU servers you know, seems like common sense to me.Just don't think of UNRANKED games as competitive or don't play multiplayer games until you get decent internet.
These are the two solutionsIf you want """true""" talent then why don't you play esport games with a ranking and mmr system where being really good gets you to high ranks, even with bad internet in some games

buy internet and git gud

I have been all over the world for my country, my location is unavailable for anything other than cellular and no I should not have to switch what type of game I like playing. In this climate of equality, I think the Woke will have a field day with it. If that's the stance of Plutonium, your servers will be all but empty soon. And i live in TX and unable to get below 100 ping as well as a lot of American players.

Why are you trying to lower everyone's experience by trying to even the playing field over any rational limit? Where will you stop?
The next logical thing would of course be mandatory packet loss.
How about a FPS limit of 15 since there are people trying to play the game on PCs twice as old as the games?
Next stop certainly will be reduced polling rates for USB Keyboards and Mice, while their PS2 siblings will get a delay in software since they literally interrupt the CPU to send their data.
Also a resolution limit will certainly be necessary because those people with money can get 4k displays and have an advantage again.
Any and all voice chat will be a ban-able offense since not every one has the money for a microphone.
We also have players without headphones, so no more sound for anyone I guess.
But also don't forget about those players that can't afford any glasses, so now everything is blurry.
Don't get me started on players that no longer have all of their limbs...
The games already have lag comp enabled, also ping has almost nothing to do with how fast your internet is, even an old ADSL connection will work perfectly fine to play games online.
Just because you live at a place where competition does not exist and your ISP is saving money as hard as they can, does not mean that literally everyone else should suffer.oldgunner said in Equity (a fair fight):

It is, it however is not always cheap which is why it is not happening.
Even the moon is reachable with super fast internet; since 2013. -
oldgunner Mr. Einstein, servers are community-hosted. How about getting a job and then hosting your own server with your own rules, etc.? Don't think you're entitled to anything when this client was provided for free, and most of the server owners pay for their servers. Be appreciative that this client exists for us. We have enough entitled kids in this community already.

I can see there is no support here, us marines are used to that. Funny Activision had a fantastic matchmaking system, I was rated 3rd worldwide on PS, and that was with lower internet almost 20 years ago. Believe me i know about logistical limitations, but I was trained to eliminate targets regardless. Frame loss and rubber banding do not make for effective play!
If i had the speed that a lot of these players have i would not be hiding in an old game that can be ran on older systems. -
oldgunner I have to admit you had us at the beginning, nice trolling
