Black Ops II Lag Comp Explained

Black Ops 2′s MP includes a ‘necessary evil’ called “lag comp”, “comp” representing compensation.

But the problem is way more complex than what was just explained, and thankfully YouTube personality Drift0r has made two videos explaining in detail “lag comp”, the controversial implementation that’s at the heart of most of Black Ops 2′s woes.
