    Just curious why do I lag when fighting certain players?

    When I'm fighting UFE's in particular I lag. But when I'm versing other players I do not?
     
  2. Ufe shoot more lasers then other players thats why u have laggs xD :D
     
  3. The lag is generally induced by your graphics card not being able to keep up with the game and as a UFE is firing with Cooldown Boosters and massive rockets and lasers could affect the lag generated. You should also see it if you have a lot of NPC's around you.
     
  4. or they could be using a program as what normally happened back in the day when bots DID exist

    There also factors apart from the graphic information that is being passed to your PC/Lap top, here are a few of the main ones.

    1. Your internet speed, a slower connection will add to lag issues.
    2. WiFi connection a WiFi connection is slower that a hard wired connection.
    3. Background applications, if you have things like auto up dates and other non essential processes running in the background this will use needed CPU power.
    4. Lap tops tend to have lower performance than a desk top.
    5. Virus's, add ware and malware will cause bad lag issues.
