Summary

0000184: Rename Unlagged to ZeroPing

Description

I have noticed alot of people complaining that Unlagged does not reduce lag

Since afaik it only makes hitscan weapons act like you have no ping, I suggest that this could be Renamed to ZeroPing.

Unlagged or Backwards Reconciliation?

Notes
(0000583) XutaWoo (reporter) 2010-11-08 22:54	ZeroPing brings the same thing to mind. If we do rename it, it should probably be about better prediction, since that's what Unlagged does.

(0000585) Dark-Assassin (administrator) 2010-11-09 04:01	Its just that the name Unlagged is very misleading for some people. They usually think of it as something that will make them have no lag.

(0000592) Eruanna (reporter) 2010-11-09 16:40 edited on: 2010-11-09 16:41	AFAIK this is what it's been called all across the gaming industry - all different implementations to give the illusion of the same thing. In a functional sense, it does actually try to emulate as much as it can not being lagged, even though you still really do have lag. Misnomer or not, I think it's the best name we have for it.

In any case, we need to communicate with our audience. > Since most people don't understand "technicality," or even want to, "unlagged" is just an easier name to attribute to something that basically does the same thing anyway. > The name stays. I'm closing this.
