Is it just me or is it that whenever I play Annex on any given map and time I always lag? What about you guys? Could it be the playlist? Comments please :)

Its because Epic failed to put in that when numerous smoke grenades/dead bodies are everywhere your frame rate will drop significantly low and make it very difficult to shoot things.

Yeah, the frame-rate slows down when playing Annex.. probably because the increased amount of gameplay.

For Annex you need an extremely good connection.

Will you kids stop confusing internet lag and framerates dropping. They are totally different things.

Lag is a latency problem with the internet connection.
Choppy framerates is a slowdown problem with the hardware not being able to handle that much on screen.

huge difference.

I know what they both are and I'm 100% sure it's not frame rate problems. If I have to lead my shots and are I'm moving in a normal speed I'm pretty sure thats not choppy frame rate.

It's a frame-rate problem.

He's right it is. Host a game wait till there has been over 60 kills then go stand a top a high point and watch everyone running about, it looks like a badly filmed animation!

agreed.

the quick solution to this is for epic to just make it so that the bodies dissapear as soon as you respawn.
