Passionfruit Cappuccino Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 I dont know if this happens to others (it probably does), but whenever i play online, regardless of the type, with or without friends, i always experience like a full second of input lag (to clarify; its when i press a button, and its effect happens a while after pressed). This happens all the time, and is seriously annoying and putting me off playing multi altogether on Smash. Does anyone know if there is a way to fix this? Would appreciate it lots...

Fruity Insanity Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 Are you sure it isn't just your Internet? Or the opponent's? I have input lag at times, too, but it usually resolves after one match for me. And if it doesn't by the second match, I just leave that match and join a new one. Of course, I've really only played 1v1, so I'm not sure how common of an occurrence it is in other formats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Passionfruit Cappuccino Posted December 2, 2014 Author Share Posted December 2, 2014 Unfortunately, even when i quit a game and join a new one (1v1 or 4 player) its still there. My internet is perfectly capable of keeping up, as its fine for anything else that i use it for, including other multi games on 3ds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PKLucas531 Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 Either your internet is not fine or the people you are playing against have bad internet. If it's consistently bad it's probably you, maybe too many people using your connection at once or something. Fighting games demand a better connection than any other type of game. Distance between you and the other player if you live in different countries can also be a factor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll get it checked out soon. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loki Laufeyson Posted December 4, 2014 Share Posted December 4, 2014 Its likely your ping being atrocious. Especially if its constant. Since i get lag issues, but never in a constant, its not me thats causing it. Distance between opponents isnt that huge of a factor since ive played Japanese people consistently and never had much lag. It has to do with ping usually. For some reason, North American names are the ones that tend to bring lag with them in matches.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
