- Description
-
"Desync" is a colloquial abbreviation for desynchronization, specifically referring to a technical failure in multiplayer gaming where a client and server disagree on the state of the game. It results in players seeing things that aren't actually happening, such as characters walking through walls or hits not registering. This term is used by gamers to express frustration with poor network code or server stability. It describes a specific type of lag that feels more "broken" than just a slow connection.
- Example
-
> The desync in this match is so bad that I'm getting hit by players who are across the map.
> We lost the round because of a massive desync right when I was about to shoot.
> I hate when the server has constant desync issues because it makes the game unplayable.
