Pretty sure that means set your Wii U to your TV's native resolution.
CRTs still have display lag it's just pretty low.
I must be really dumb, because there are some online matches (read some as "most") where I don't feel any lag whatsoever. No stuttering, no input lag, nothing.
The latter is probably the case. Every display has display lag of some sort, but more likely is that...
What everyone calls yeah I agree but that's not what input lag is. Real input lag is when there's a delay between you pressing a button and the console interpreting that input. Some controllers actually have this problem and it's usually because the controller has firmware and needs to convert the input before sending it.
You might not feel it with some connections but there is lag. Some netcode does it better than others but there will always be lag when playing online. When you do an input, your console must send it to the game servers, then send this to the other player, trigger a received input event, send it back to the server and then send it back to you. All of these links require time before receiving responses. If you have good netcode and both players have good connections, it will barely be noticeable but if your connection is bad, the server is overloaded, the other player has a bad connection or even all 3, the lag will be much more noticeable.
Alternatively I think that an argument could be made for both low ms monitors and SONY LCDs that, although heightened delay, it is still in the "doesn't affect human reaction" category.
You probably have a 60Hz or 120Hz TV (240Hz is a marketing gimmick). Either way, what you want to know is the response time (measured in ms, less is better). Judging by your description, you might have some really bad response time and input lag on the TV.
So basically I'm screwed, buy a new tv?
This.
Lol second time I seen you in this topic posting your bs. If you don't want to help that's fine but kindly fk off if you have nothing worthwhile to say because people are clearly having issues it's affecting gameplay. Nothing wrong with asking for help from people who may know what to do in order to fix our issue
depending on what brand you get, you can actually see **** a whole ten seconds before it happens
And here's the 3rd time.
How dare someone come on a forum asking for help. Obviously he isn't as knowledge in the field which is why he made the post here to get assistance. Like I said if you have nothing to say to help simply piss off nobody wants to deal with your childish harassment.
One tv does it, they all must amirite?
Mine actually happens both online and offline. I think the easiest way to tell is when you're playing marth or lucina. Attempt your side+b multiple times in different variations. Sometimes you'll stop after the second one unable to finish the combo and it will restart from the first and if you try doing the down combo with the multiple stabs it will stop after the second and perform his/her counter.
Marth is my secondary, have been playing him from Brawl, and noticed this since Day 1 of Smash 3DS. I even played him on the Wii U version. What you have mentioned happen to me quite often, especially the side-b side combo always stopping at the second strike, I'm much better at performing the side-b down combo, but I still do occasionally counter mid-combo. I took this as a part of the already massive Marth nerfs, I did not know it was an effect of input lag. Thanks for telling me!
I didn't notice anything with a wireless controller, it could possibly be the inputs of a GameCube controller are different than what a Wii U is used to. Who knows?
If it turns out that it is in fact because of the GC controller, then big fail for Nintendo. Defeats the purpose of using a GC controller; you can't be as pro.
I never used the GameCube controller for Smash U, as I didn't have access to an adapter and I don't like it much anyway, so in a way we're on the same boat.
I've been browsing multiple forums for smash trying to find a fix for this and everyone seemed to tell me it was input lag so I just ran with it. I wasn't aware this was on the 3ds as well.. You telling me that really destroys my hopes for playing Marth even with the massive nerfs.. Perhaps they thought it was too op or something like you said.. Sigh this sucks.. Sm4sh I officially hate you if this is the case.
At first, I thought it happened on the 3DS because the Circle Pad on the 3DS doesn't have little edges the stick kinda goes into, so I thought I was slightly tilting my finger up until Smash U release, where I had a GameCub-esque controller that had those edges that directly make the command go in one direction, and the same problem arose, so I didn't know what was the issue and shoved it into the list of things that Marth had nerfed.
A little levity is a positive thing.
That's not levity, that's called being ass hat because you're on a forum with anonymity. Like I said before if he has no way to contribute to this topic then move right along because there's hundreds if not thousands of other ways that he could actually be contributing to something worthwhile on this forum. Flame baiting is a waste of time for everyone, mods included.
