Hi ppl,
We have been playing HL a lot at work, prolly last 6 months and seem to have an oddity!
There were a few players with shitty PC's, approx P300, 16MB gfx card, etc, and they used to play poorly against the rest of us who had slightly better PC's, approx P4, 1.2Ghz.
However, we have recently bought some new P4, 2.2 with GeForce 3/4 and the shitty players have started to use those and all of a sudden, they seem to be quite good!
We know they aren't cheating as we ensure cheats are disabled.
Does anyone know if you have a fast PC, running say 40% faster than others on the network whether this affects hits, etc?
I know some racing games where 2 people accelerate at the same speed in the same car, but the one who has the better PC seems to pull away quicker as his PC can process the data much faster.
If anyone can help it would be much appreciated!
Cheers
Tubs.
P.S. If anyone needs a clan member please contact me. I have a P4 1.4, Geforce 3 with either 512k connection or 2MB connection depending where I am.
