(as far as travel time goes, it most likely just lag)

QFT

Once again... if you still experience travel time with sniper rifles or tv missiles... try the latency fix from the last page... if it doesn't work... get a more stable internet provider.

Look at the video again.

The jet taking off - the guy shoots it and right then and there the pilot gets hit by another jet (note the carcasses of two jets)

I can't explain the vodnik part, but I'm sure it was something of that same sort (or maybe it just had low life). The Blackhawk I'm not too sure either, but it may have crashed into that tree right after getting shot. There's always a possibility of these being staged, as well.

This video is like.. old..

you know whats wrong with that vid is he says  that there isnt any  bullet travell time and drop but there is. This isnt UT

Exactly, good call

he never even said that... he said there's no "WIND" or travel time... there isn't any....

there is however bullet drop...

Edit: Any 'travel time' you may experience... that may require you to 'lead' your target and fire ahead is lag related.  It can be fixed by changing a setting.

When in-game bring up the console and type the following command.
"SettingsManager.floatSet GSDefaultLatencyCompensation 0.1"
Of course the 0.1 means 100ms. So, press tab, look at your ping and replace the 0.1 with a more accurate figure eg. "0.04" (for a ping of 40ms). Remember when typing the command, don't include the quotes ("").

actually that only helps with hit-box detection. ever get that feeling you were killed by someone even though you were round the corner

e.g if someone is behind a wall but you can see their nametag when you see their nametag move up fire straightaway and even though you cant see them it will still hit.

I have no recollection of anything being staged.  I know this was filmed without my knowledge and it was during the first few months of the game when a whole lot of glitches were still out there. 

NOW go home!

I've never heard of this adjustment...

And that video is fake,  no doubt about it,   if it was that easy,  everybody was a freakin sniper shooting at everything that moves.

First of all good video and killer track. Although I have a few questions to ask:

1. What environment was this video set in, Single Player, Ranked Server etc?

2. What is the point in putting a video on here showing us you owning people if your not going to explain why you seem to be able to take out a black hawk with one shot. To me that seems impossible unless the vehicle is heavily damaged. Anyone can edit a video, someone who can shoot down a BH full health must be cheating.

3. The people you sniped were relatively static targets which further increases my suspicions of this video being a fake.

4. The people you knifed just stood their waiting for their death, which to me screams out "Novice player".

The question is, is this a staged environment for the purpose of looking good then you have a lot to learn my friend.
