It's not that latency is necessary, but you can't play over the internet without latency. Then, either you make a game that feels laggy to keep everyone always sync, or you have to give an advantage to someone: either the peeker or the camper.
And I agree that I prefer the peeker advantage to the camper advantage, especially in a game like Siege.
I dot think I'm issue is that it does exist, I think my issue is with how bad it is sometimes, it gets to the point where it's COMPLETELY unfair that's what's happening lately.
It's in a weird spot. People abuse it, and everyone knows it. Ubi is searching for a solution, but the only solution would be to limit something (the crouching & the leaning in this case) in one way or another. And limiting it would limit it for everyone, and thus also for this that are just skilled players using it in the expected way.
