Killing thru walls

Hi guys. 

I've been getting killed thru walls and rocks in the new duos mode. Hidden inside houses or behind rocks, people just spray and I get hitted. Some friends of mine have told me that it happened to them too. There are videos on YouTube where you can see this happening since season 2.

And is not just that, even with gold armor I get killed like if I had level 1 armor. If I have purple armor I get killed like I had none. 

I played for 3 or 4 hours yesterday and I made a total of 5 kills in duos mode. 

I had gold armor and got killed with 1 single grenade.

Something is wrong with duos mode. Loosing like this is not pleasant.

    @Galen_peck Had people rip through my purple/gold shields like they don't exist. One shot, and it's gone; and they have like any weapon.

    Do you get shot through the wall when sitting totally still in a safe place, or do you mean that you get shot through walls, when for instance strafing to a window, and then strafing back to safety?

    Because if its the latter, its because the client sided hit detection in combination with high ping players (either you or your enemy). Some people play with 200+ ms ping, which basically means that they can shoot you 0.2 seconds after you got to cover... Insane that they allow this in a competative shooter 2019.

    I can't speak to the OP's experience, but I'm fairly sure I've been killed through the wall of one of the white buildings, while self-res'ing.

    I suspect the hitbox of the res'ing animation clipped through the wall.

    To me it sounds like you have high ping or lag in other words or the other plays have the lag i have satelite internet at my other house so dont even bother with apex there on my screen im in safety but for the enemys your still in the open and if they beam you you just drop from it so sounds like client lag player lag just some form of lag imo if you were strafing in and out of cover or running from someone etc into cover on your screen you may appear safe but for others screens your not hope that makes sence
