Blur Busters Forums

I’ve read tons of posts about this input lag issue and if I’m honest with y’all, I think we haven’t documented this nice or on a strict way. I believe that can cause some confusion to people or create misunderstandings and on consequence make harder to others to determinate the root cause, it has been for some of y’all more than 10
years without an answer or with a proper solution. Also I feel so frustrated how people can just literally plug and play without any type of issue.
I think is a nice idea to create a paper or some proper documentation apart from the forum for this, I do volunteer to that with someone else who has some proper knowledge of this. For doing this I’ll need to collect as many data as possible otherwise would be really hard to determine or find some type of solution.

I think I should give my posture on the root cause. I completely believe is the body and ngl is so hard for me to admit it because it literally makes no sense, but if it wasn’t the body and it’s electricity simply moving to another place would fix it, playing with a whole different setup and place or using a laptop battery would just fix this. Again for the people who believe is electricity go ahead and play on a LAN or cybercafe and ask why among all people why you are the only one who feel this lag. Again blaming an electrical reason is the most “logical” thing to do, but if you start removing causes it all lead to the same thing which is YOU.

I’ve managed to shield my controller with socks + nitrile gloves on my hands. I can play with the results and also replicate the issue any amount of times and make the lag stronger or weaker, also I’ve noticed changing the grip removes the lag completely for seconds.

Anyway, I think the most optimal thing is to start actually looking for something concrete and not just suppositions or “magical” fixes (like moving, new hardware, specialized electrical equipment, etc.)

I found that in my house I have very weak network and internet very often doesn’t work in my phone, I go outside bang internet immediately is working and I have better network reach XD could it be correlated?

Do you mean you have better internet with mobile data than your domestic internet?

I mean I have bad network reach at home and mobile internet problems. Idk. But sometimes my games works perfectly fine, right now it’s working very nice, it’s smooth, responsive… fucking hell brother

Ohhhhh I see man! Honestly is hard to determinate if the issue is something going in your house, have you ever played any game (specially online) on another setup and location and felt the issue? And I’m glad it’s working good. Hope it last, but if I was you, tbh I won’t made any illusions lol.

And yeah I remember having those good days when games felt fine and normal.

There's no point discussing things with the EMI/dirty power cult. I could send them proof of all my leases and rental agreements from all 17 apartments, and they'd still find a way to cope.

I get you. I was blaming EMI for a long time, but it doesn’t make sense to me that doesn’t matter in which place I play the input lag returns after sometime continuing blaming electricity would just be stupid.

I still feel that is worth it to do more documentation about this, at the end there’s some physical phenomenon going on with our body/hands and input hardware and I think finding the root cause would be really helpful to find a solution.

Also I’ve been messing with some shielding on my Xbox 360 controller and I’ve found pretty interesting results and clues. My biggest discovery so far is that I can replicate the issue and fix it for seconds by just changing the grip of my controller, but tbh I don’t know what could be causing that the input lag disappears for seconds.
