199.6, on a good day I have 18 ping, 1/1.2 K/d. I almost always kill myself each round though, so I don't really fit in to the test data.

I believe ping would be a greater determining factor than your reaction time. Even 50 ping could really be hampering your abilities to the point you will miss a block if your reaction time isn't less than the average. 50 ping would be adding something like 100 to your reaction time.

Also experience is much better than being fast. Many situations I survive simply because I know what's going to happen next, blocking it as it happens is a sure fire way to die to another's experience/trap simply because there is way more information to process than just swing direction.

Xant, it had wanted me to press "stop" about three times before I had even put my cursor over it. That and I was bitter over the fact that my reaction time doesn't seem to be up to snuff with what it used to be and the one you posted would say things like "you could do better..".

Ah, it went and hurt your feelings. Roger.

yah this test isn't measuring anything worthwhile. said mine was 220s but it doesn't matter.

cause it isnt about a simple click, its about aiming combined with reaction time, as well as awareness of everything on your screen.

Like a shooter.

Aim speed reaction. And this tests numbers don't show anything worth even looking at

All the butthurt when people realize they're average or even below average. Delicious. It's hard when mommy's always told you you're the best in the world and then you get cold, hard numbers that prove otherwise. Of course those numbers aren't even worth looking at!

well, I'd say we don't play the same game and reaction time for sure has no impact on KDR or success in battle mode.

The best players on siege are apparently still the best players on battle, so the game modes can't be that different. The only skill that Battle tests that Siege doesn't is the ability to tolerate tedium.

The high KDR players always wreck me in 1v1, so the number isn't meaningless. Not that a low KDR can't be equally good 1v1. Winning percentage would be a more meaningful number, but that stat isn't kept to my knowledge.

When people realize they're average or below on a test that show's clicking speed they get butthurt? I was average and so is everyone that clicked it 5 times on that account. Some people continue to try to get a higher number number, which doesn't mean shit. It's completely different then actually hand speed reaction in a shooter or Crpg. Your assumption of thinking I or anyone else was "butthurt" because I commented about this topic makes no sense.

If you on the other hand want to feel butthurt, just sit back and reminisce about the times your stepdad was over

Now I did a 175ms one on first try.

Looks like I REALLY have to concentrate on it.

My score was 290 after 17 attempts, it levelled out after about 7. My friend got 290 as well. He kicks my arse with his 2h shinanangans, I assumed he would be much faster than me but we are on par.

What you have to take into account is learning styles and pattern recognition. I can't react fast enough to stop a whole load of different shit. But I can still chamber the crap out of people. I anticipate when its coming and react ahead of my ability to respond to the stimulus. That's the only conclusion I can come to...
Fammi un pompino!

I think I have ball cancer in my right nut :(
Good news everybody! It's not nut cancer :)
Bad news everybody, I got dumped :(
