Well, sadly, that very example is impossible in practical terms.
- chongli 3y agoWhy, is Mortal Kombat banned in Vietnam?
- dalmo3 3y agoI was thinking in terms of MK being a reflex-based game and the physical reality of latency. Of course the assumption being that the author of the quote was somewhere far away from Vietnam.
- chongli 3y agoModern netcode can hide a lot of this latency. You can definitely play with someone far away, though the experience won't be as consistent and reliable is with someone nearby. But things are always improving! Most of the issue is with jitter, not latency. If you had a dedicated point-to-point link to your friend in Vietnam you could play a flawless game of Mortal Kombat for sure!
