I thus began favouring big blast weapons, and could consistently get many, many frags. Although hit detection improved significantly, I became an easier target for the other players. The bottom line is, ping changes everything. Sure, extremely low pingers have a definite edge, but people with high pings, especially with the type of weapons in Shogo, shoudln't complain. In my opinion Monolith screwed up on this one.
Servers really DO favor players with faster connections.
I've been playing for quite a while. Let's face it, it's just not fun to be killed time after time before you can even get into the game. So the guys with analog modems are left struggling against the cable modems and getting our butts shot off. There should be 2,000 people on-line playing Shogo. You can serious advantage of them when they're running that slow.
