Then just to make it fair I go play on some internasional server with ping between 200 - 300 and still on the match (37 - 4/ 25 - 1 ect.). Have the video's to prove it. So anyone who cant play with ping above 150 is simply just not good enough. No Offence, but if u are skilled u can play on high'ish ping and still be the top dog.
    You my son have no idea what your talking about. Latency makes a huge difference in gaming, its not about not being able to play at 200ms, its about not wanting to play at that latency, playing with a lower latency is an advantage I can tell you that now from my thousands of hours in CS, UT, Quake, Cod.

    I lost all my screen shots but we tested this with a group of friends a few years ago. I'll go 1 v 1 with you any game, you playing at 200ms and me playing at 30ms, pistols only and I promise you I'll make you cry. That's not to say your not a good player but you have a distinct disadvantage by playing like that.

    It might not make a huge difference in Titanfall because its not a twitch fps, but high latency makes a difference when your playing something like UT or CS, there is no denying that.

    I make a point of it to start local server daily. Igame 5 & 6 is most popular. Igame 2 also fills up quick coz its a cell vs rebel. Igame 13 is also popular coz it's hunter mode only. The other servers take a bit longer to fill but last night almost all 13 severs was running at full steam.

    Don't get me wrong. Latency does play a roll, but almost 80% of players are playing for the fun of the game. there's a small percentage that play's competitive DGL ect. So for this reason alone going up against normal players with a average skill level. 200ms wont bother me at all. That's just me in anycase. But for league matches I will agree with low ping is the key. My point on the whole high ping issue was simply: Latency wont stop me from Going Big in Titanfall.
