Skin size matters? - Toyotaspeed - 11.11.2008

Just a simple question. I play on some DM servers and stuff,and I always pick a skinny guy (like woozie or the president guy in the gray suit). I own like hell with them. But on the RP server I play in,I'm subjected to a slightly fat skin,and I get finished very quickly. Does the size of skin matter in gunfights?

Could be. Possibly your fat guy is easier to hit than your little skinny man :P. Else it could be something to do with your latency.

I don't think it's lag. The servers I play in are hosted in Texas (I think),yet I have a 70-90 ping,which is very low on the average skill (Im in Canada,Toronto btw. 2.5MB/s connection)

There's actually a difference? I thought all ped skin performances were the same.

Yes, if the server uses UsePlayerPedAnims. Which enables CJ's speed on all characters.
I think i'll agree with jatoch...

Ping doesn't really matter, there's always a bit of lag with SAMP.

That is not true, if you have a higher ping you will have to aim further in front of your opponent, or vise versa if they have a higher ping .

I was replying to when Toyotaspeed said he didn't think it was a lag problem because he had a low ping. I meant that (unless your pings are really low) you are going to have to foward aim anyway.

eh didn't all the skins have the same hitbox? Changing skins won't give u any advantage unless u use a fast skin. U won't get better by using a smaller skin. And the differences between skin sizes are so small that it doesn't have any effect in a normal fight.

I don't think so, as its all about clientside damage, so unless the bullets hit your character on your screen then you won't feel any damage at all. So I think that size does matter, although in a very little way
