Red Ring of Death!

Most people, a majority of people, aren't going to have that. They'd end up having to pay for a VPN (which a lot of people have resorted to doing).

And why do you suppose that works huh? It works because it cuts out bad routing between you and the server. The fact this works for SO many people is proof that some of this problem is NOT with the client. Yes, the game may be too finely tuned for split second decision making in order to dodge effectively, but that is a game balance debate. Not a technical one.

@Whilke. Yes, you need to be clear before it starts fading. Once it begins to fade it has already decided if it will hit or not. As for Video 4 this type of thing happens in tons of games and is hardly unique to ARR. This particular instance does not support your argument. If anything it detracts from it since it is clearly packetloss which happens in all games. Just because your client experienced packet loss doesn't mean all clients did. So yes. In this situation you will definitely get hit in the face.
