    Wireless controller lag?

    So I don't know if I'm crazy but I noticed that when my controller isn't plugged in to ps4 I'm hitting lot more to opposite field. Is it in my head? . I'm almost sure it's not it's better to have it plugged in this game. Try it out tell me if you see a difference

    A wireless connection always creates additional lag. It's unavoidable. This is true with internet, with keyboards, with computer mice, so I'm sure it's true with Playstations. It's one of the reasons avid PC gamers prefer wired/fixed connections for everything.

    The real question is if that lag is large enough to be noticeable to the naked eye, or to even be recognized at all? I have no idea if it is.

          Im gonna call BS. The difference is to minimal to notice. Go here on your PS4's browser - http://www.humanbenchmark.com/tests/reactiontime/

          Run the test at least 10 times wired and un wired. Dont try and guess when it will turn green. Just click when it does. I did it 20 times and the difference was 1ms. Well within a margin of error. Not to mention that there is debate on whether or not the DS4 actually even turns
          BT off when its plugged in. If you plug your DS4 into your PC you can still control your PS4. Which shows that the DS4 is still sending signals through BT even when its wired. Regardless. The results will be the same.

                      I've played with the controller plugged in and wireless and my hitting doesn't change. I've had to plug in during a game and nothing changes.
                      I can't shave with my eyes closed, meaning each day I have to look at myself in the mirror and respect who I see.

                      I miss the old days of Operation Sports :(

                          The TV would not make up for it. Lag + Lag means more lag. Just cause a TV has more than a monitor doesnt mean anything.

                            I never thought of this, I knew there had to be a reason my team is only hitting. 250....
                            I am gonna try it once the next time I play... If I remember that is. That reminds me of a question I had, does anyone know if you can buy a longer usb plug in. At least longer than the one that comes with the ps4 system?

                              Yeah you can buy one. Any USB will work. But dont get your hopes up about hitting better with it plugged in.
