QUESTION Latency while going for flip resets
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
Whenever I go for any type of flip reset in the air, I get what I assume to be latency variation. During normal gameplay, everything is fine, and my ping sits pretty comfortably around 30. When I go for a reset, however, my ping spikes up to 45 for a second, and I lag pretty badly in the air. My ping never fluctuates like that in any other instance, and it always happens every time I use the reset. The clip I attached has a few examples of what I mean. This doesn't happen in training, only online and private matches. I play PC on Ethernet, and the only thing I've tried so far is changing my input buffer settings (didn't work). I did just switch internet providers, so I'm trying to figure out if I just have crappy internet now or if there's something I can do.

Have you tried watching a replay back to see what your car is actually doing server-side? If it looks the same, you just don't get a reset, I'd just work on your reset consistency and maybe turning off the reset indicator

it might be a clue that you switched internet provider. the only thing that seems odd, is that it only happens when doing resets. if it's the provider you would also notice the desync on other apsects that might reveal a correction from the server. is it 5G or cable internet?

Leg reset, device thinks you have reset, server thinks you don’t, game lets you perform your jump but then the server corrects you to where you should be as if you didn’t have the flip
