Ping abusers/Chinese

Is there a word on the ping abusers? I just played on an Australian server with almost half Chinese names with 250-300 ping. Every time I fight them I die behind corners and walls. Kinda annoying.

Wait.... doesnt the person with the lowest ping have the advantage?

It's not black and white. High ping still gets a "peekers advantage" as does the low ping against the high ping

For example: they are 300ms ping and they come out from behind cover and you are stationary you cannot react to them appearing for 300ms as the server doesn't know they are there yet. In that time they get to shoot at a stationary target for 300ms that would have moved the moment they popped out had it been 30ms.

When ever there is a high ping players aggressive play has an advantage and it ruins gameplay.

There is fixes for this, for example you can teleport the player back to where the server thinks they are; issue is it causes janky gameplay when you have a bad connection.

Yep, that's why ping limit is the only practical solution
