Hey there @kingtricky28pc,
This thread is quite old and is being locked here to avoid further necroposting.
Feel free to create a new thread if there's a subject you're wanting to discuss that doesn't have a more recent topic, thanks!
Ok maybe I misunderstood your point but it sounded like you suggested there is some code in the game that intentionally make your 11 dmg R99 body hit randomly (or rather NOT randomly) do "9" dmg for some malicious reason, this happening MORE in some games than others vs certain types of enemy players. It even sounded that you claim the game purposely cause you no-regs versus certain type of enemies in certain type of matches....
I am sorry if we disagree on this but I just find this type of claims so meaningless and actually harmful. There are many people out there who just look for things to blame and they will catch on to these kinds of things faster than you can imagine. Next you will see someone else post a thread "Ive heard the dmg is rigged" , an idea that originally came from you and you might think "wow so I am not alone. I knew I was right about that " and right there and then have an unproven "gut feeling" become fact.
I welcome all kind of evidence of this like video clips =)
By watching my own clips, Ive come to realize that most stuff that I found fishy actually had a perfectly legit explanation. Its so easy to think you are on point with your aim in the heat of battle, but especially for high rate of fire guns, like the R99, it doesnt require many milliseconds of deviation from an aim exactly at center target to actually lose alot of DPS. Its literally 11.88 less dmg each millisecond your crosshair just touches outside the hitbox of the enemy, and when both you and your enemy move PLUS the recoil pattern, this happens alot, which is impossible to see live but possible when watching in slomo.
Also hitboxes can fool you. Some of the things you see on the player models are not included in the hitbox. This might not be that obvious when shooting a target that is turned straight towards you but when he is moving around, the player model will twist and turn and much of the non-included stuff is suddenly turned towards you. So if you aim at a certain coordinate which at one moment is on the hitbox, then the next moment, he might twist so that the same space where the hitbox-part used to be now is "replaced" with part that isnt included in the hitbox, like the jetpack for instance. Its not easy to see those things in the middle of the spray but once again; you will in slomo replay =)
I said "I welcome all kind of evidence of this like video clips =)"
Well to answer myself; here is one example of a fishy situation where the game robbed me of a shotgun blast. You can clearly see in the video the pellets leaving my gun, travelling to him and even cause blood splatter. But as you can see on the dmg dealt counter, the game didnt accept the hit. My only guess is that it was a ping/server conflict. My client maybe sent the information to the server that I landed x shotgun pellets at a certain timestamp but when the server tried to confirm this, it already had the information that I already was dead at that timestamp. It still weird since I was under the impression that hit detection was 100% client sided.
