LAAAAAAAAGGGGGG!!!!

[0p3rati0n]

Ok so I have a friend over right now and he's playing CoD2 online on my (shitty) PC right now. He is lagging like hell and he keeps yelling every time a small piece of lag appears or his he dies of lag. So I want to know do you scream and yell every time a small bit a lag appears or something happens to you because of lag?

 

[ProfessorLayton]

No because the way my computer is (mostly with Left 4 Dead) I will lag a bit at first but then my computer will gain perfect connection and I won't lag any more.

 

[AkJay]

surprisingly, I don't normally lag on Borderlands, but it takes me forever to find a server I can play on. I normally time-out 90% of the time.

 

[Radeonx]

No. The only PC games I plan on playing until my new PC games come out are from 2004, and the only time my Xbox lags is when my whole internet is slow due to me torrenting something.

When I lag during a perfectly aimed sniper shot I mutter 'fucking lag' to myself. No need to yell. But if it was on mic then I let them know they the PingPing gods have smiled on them today.

 

[stone0042]

Only in competitive online games, like Halo 3 in ranked. Otherwise I could really care less, I mean its a game.

 

[bcponpcp27]

Hell yeah I do. Sometimes I get a connection issue that starts a countdown and I start yelling LAG GODDAMMIT a ton.

 

[GodofDisaster]

Yes it does piss me off. But I never shout it out online. Why?
Because I don't use a mic. (I own one just don't use it) I like to play my games with peace and quiet.

 

[Vierran]

Nope, i remember playing UT back when 400 ping was good on my new 56k modem, if you were good enough you could lag kill people.

 

[Sion_Barzahd]

Timed out and dc'd. Thats the worst thing to happen to me. Then i logged back in to find my character dead.
Thats not so bad but at one point my net repeated this five or six times within half an hour.

Not yelling usually, but it's quite annoying. If it completely destroys the game, so I can't even more right or something, then I just accept that it's screwed up and I can laugh at the random crap that happens. On the other hand, if it's something subtle like bullet lag, I often get really upset about it. I can't count the times I should have won one-on-one battles in Gears of War if only my bullets actually came out of my gun when they were supposed to...

 

[NyteRaven]

Only time I yell about lag is when its either really bad caused by people refreshing server lists, or when someone is complainig about 'LAN-lag'

 

[timmytom1]

When you`re playing well in a game that flowing perfectly and then someone joins the gameand evrything stops......and teleports that tends to leave decidedly annoyed

 

[DazZ.]

I don't scream at lag, as I usually just fix it. If it is because of another server and not my fault then nothing I can do so no point in getting pissed off.

I do swear loudly when I miss easy shots or my team doesn't defend anything.

 

[wooty]

I dont scream at lag, unless its pathetically terrible.

I scream more at physics, such as the source engine. As good as it is, was playing DoD Source the other day and couldnt get away from 30. cal fire into a doorway because..............there was a plank of wood on the floor that somehow blocked the entire entrance

That shits just silly really

 

[MiracleOfSound]

COD is very annoying when lagging, as you die in a split second before you see the killer magically appear over your corpse.

I usually just leave any server I'm lagging on nowadays though. Helps me avoid nerd rage.

 

[SultanP]

I do not. I believe this to be because I'm not twelve years old anymore..

 

[Sketchy]

Depends on the game I suppose. When I used to play a game from my most hated series, (Call of Duty 4), it would be the most frustrating thing ever.
