Best way to counter Shivas ?

[General_Armchair]

Warping is better than it used to be, although it is still common for high speed assets (pretty much everything with wings).... I feel sorry for our friends in the pacific.  They get to suffer seeing everyone else warp and everyone yells at them for warping.

The warping has a lot to do with why the Eagle Eye turret is so much more effective than your average huit prime.  Poor gunners have to use outdated information to track a small high speed target at long range with a weapon requiring modest lead time and zeroed at infinity rather that zeroed at their target distance.  Targets that can change heading without warning because they have never heard of inertia.

Although, as far as planes go, shivas suffer the least from warping because of their relatively larger size and relatively slower speeds.

Google how to use google as your DNS host lookup.  Makes pretty much everything faster, although I'm not entirely sure if it has an effect on ping as well (IT guy said it does).

I don't think anybody prone to warping should be flying at all, and if they repeatedly fly knowing full well they are warping is pretty much a downright exploit.

On the other hand, if you're playing MWLL in a college dorm wi-fi hotspot, don't complain about people warping.  I don't pay an extra $20/mo of bandwidth for nothing.  I don't cater my own gameplay experience to people with bad connections.  No broadband users ever gave me an easier time in MW3 while I was on 56k.

IT guy here, DNS settings should not affect in-game ping at all unless the Crysis devs were on drugs while writing the netcode.
