  2. Netcode - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netcode

    Should the latency between players exceed an established buffer window for the remote player, the game must wait, causing the screens to "freeze". This occurs because a delay-based netcode does not allow the simulation to continue until it receives the inputs from all the players in the frame in question. [4]

  3. Input lag - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Input_lag

    Input lag or input latency is the amount of time that passes between sending an electrical signal and the occurrence of a corresponding action.. In video games the term is often used to describe any latency between input and the game engine, monitor, or any other part of the signal chain reacting to that input, though all contributions of input lag are cumulative.

    The server uses the latency of the player (including any inherent delay due to interpolation; see above) to rewind time by an appropriate amount in order to determine what the shooting client saw at the time the shot was fired. This will usually result in the server seeing the client firing at the target's old position and thus hitting.

    They also have a lower (albeit practically imperceptible) input latency, which results in a slightly more responsive button input and a more stable connection. They also don’t require batteries.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latency_(engineering)

    Latency, from a general point of view, is a time delay between the cause and the effect of some physical change in the system being observed. Lag , as it is known in gaming circles , refers to the latency between the input to a simulation and the visual or auditory response, often occurring because of network delay in online games.

    In video games, an unintentional or unexpected delay between the start and end of a process, usually to a detrimental effect on gameplay. Lag can occur in any of the many different processes in a video game, to vastly differing effects depending on the source: Frame lag: A direct delay in the rate at which a frame is processed. This is usually ...
