I have just resently join Xbox live. My question is as i play many of the different games i notice people that are strafing so fast it is imposible to kill them without a rocket lancher or hit them from a distance with a long range weapon. I would like to know if this is a mod hack or somthing you gain or buy with points. Anyone care to help me.

There, fxd.

Try to get on a friends list of someone who is really good, then ask them. Asking on this forum might get an answer but more likely will attract simpletons bent on trying to embarrass you.

I don't think its a mod....but yea I usually aim for thier head and strafing doesent really help them really because theres so much aim assist(or w.e you call it)

You'll discover that XBL is completely different from system links. The reason for this happens to be because of lag. I wouldn't say you suck, you just need some practice, and even though some dick heads in this thread treat you like crap, they remember a time when they had the same problem you now have.

You mean moving left to right really fast?

What do you mean by "buzz around?" Strafing usually isn't that quick, and as stated if you strafe really fast the aim assist will still get 'ya. Strafing fast while in close quarters is the way to go though, while strafing wider while farther away.

But if you're saying they're just like skipping around on the screen that sounds like lag.....

yep, its definatly lag

A problem with lag is the timing gets thrown off. Each player can have a different lag-time but the problem is it has to catch-up at some point.

When the catch-up happens, part are left out (to keep sync). So you see getting shot once, but the oponent has fired twice or thrice. Then the guy yells 'cause he only got shot once and all the others just laugh. A lot can happen in a 1/2 a second of lag.
