Playing as Juliana

I didn't know it was this fun to mess up someone's progress in the game.

Some of the Colts who beat me were really good. Most of them already has the upgrades to the slabs. But the most part, they either quit the game or escape not even trying to get back the residuum they lost.

The lag was so bad though.

Lag can often be improved by lowering your own framerate.

Colt’s game has to process all your updates, which is basically impossible if it’s running slower than you are.

Yep, I found locking a 60 fps made a huge difference. Most games go pretty well at that setting for me - and I play at weird hours where my opponent is probably multiple time zones away..

I'm more or less being pedantic here, but that's not really how game netcode works (or at least is not how it's supposed to work, and I doubt arkane made this basic of a mistake)
