Urban Terror 4.3.1 HOTFIX RELEASE

Game's still unplayable at high ping. Hit registration is completely broken, and everything seems to be calculated server sided now. I shouldn't have to predict where the viewmodel is half a second later in order to hit.
I've complained about this before, but it seems that nobody actually noticed. If anyone wants to try it out themselves, play at a 300+ ping server in 4.2 and in 4.3 and compare the difference.

We've noticed it Lagtronics and are investigating the issue. It seems to be due to servers setting sv_fps to 60 or higher. On such servers, your client will have an abnormally high ping if /snaps is set to 20, and player models will warp if /snaps is set to 60.
@Nitro: the default value was changed to 800 for 4.2.016 in 2013. It is high enough to run pretty much any memory-hungry third-party map and low enough to play UrT on low-end computers.
@Killerkarla: mea culpa there was indeed an issue with the Updater regarding the engine files. It's fixed now. There are no game issues to expect though even if different clients/servers have either the 4.3.0 version or the 4.3.1 version. We've only made minor performance improvements to the 4.3.1 engine on Windows.

Hello,
Normally I do not post on forums but i do follow them for information etc.
Since the release of 4.3 I like many others have had FPS issues. from 125 to 40, sometimes lower. Almost unplayable. I have blood off, brass off etc etc. I tried all the normal things,
snaps, lowering fps settings, packets, rate, and so on. the hotfix has not helped at all.
Phenom 2 6 core 2.7 ghz, 12 gig ram, win 10, AMD Radeon HD7900 3 gig ddr5
Before i ran max, even tried the lowest settings this time, no luck.
It almost seems as the hotfix helped NVidia players but not alot of AMD ones i have spoke with.
Any thoughts would be appreciated. Very Frustrated with my game play :(

Yep, I second Lagtronics' observation. The game is unplayable at higher pings. I usually play on an FA server and my hits are significantly down compared to 4.2.23 version. My ping to the server is in 250-300 range and my FPS is mostly 125. Playing the game on a 64-bit Linux distro on a computer with i5 CPU, Nvidia 1GB video card, 8GB RAM.
It feels like my rate of fire depends on my ping, the greater the ping the lower rate of fire. Almost impossible to hit anything that is moving with AK in auto mode. There is a very slight improvement when using a weapon with a higher rate of fire, such as M4. Hitting a moving target with SR8 is a pure luck. There were instances I scored kills with various weapons when my crosshair wasn't on targets. Try playing on 250+ ping servers and these issues will be obvious.

I actually would like to reply with bargh.. I have played against him and with him many matches. He aims very well, and his play is smart. I thought nothing of it really, simply blaming it on my lag but at times i have hit players with a bullet when the player was no where near my aim/dot (due to the warping all over ). I thought it was my lagged play. The hit box was way out of place. Mind you i have a good ping on the FA server i play on, but that does not mean the guy I am aiming at does.

There was the 4.3.1 hotfix to fix the major fps issue within less than one week, so i guess there will be a fix for this issue related to sv_snaps 60 as well.
Sorry for my bad spelling - I am still asleep. :)

yeah well, i just threw those into one. (and actually i just learned that those heavy fps drops are still a thing in themselfs)
But i think you can be sure those things are being looked into.
The best thing to do would be opening a github issue with all the information you can provide (including your specs/setup) so it gets centralized. ( i see those reports in about 3 threads right now). Granted there possibly already is one.
