AC netcode predicts the position of the car to a degree as i understand it. So if your opponent knows the track well and has the same break points and holds his line, the prediction is mostly right and it seems ok. Maybe you see the odd turn in warping but that's it. But if someone breaks suddenly or chances direction unexpectedly the rest of the field gets the information delayed.
For example my ping was 180ms to the server, the racer in front of me has a ping of 50ms when he starts to break suddenly i get the visible confirmation with a 230ms delay, ad my reaction time of optimistic 200ms and we have almost half a second before i start to break, at 230 km/h that's 27 meters.
I don't mind racing for any position on the grid, i like clean racing without suicide maneuvers. Yesterday i had great fun with the mini on tor peznan racing for 13th place even after i fucked up my chance to get a top 10 position due to my mistakes.
So yeah low ping all around would be great.
