Re: when my enemy is clearly in my crosshair at cqb my bullets do no damage.

Except for the new Havoc with Select Fire, no weapons are hitscan, meaning you need to account for bullet travel time and distance drop off.
For example, doing a 300 meter range shot, you will have to account for targets movement speed and you will have to aim higher to account for the bullet falling mid flight.

The same applies in close corner figths to a lesser degree as well.

    he is saying you have to lead your bullets and aim to where the person is going to be corresponding with the trvel time of the bullet. you do the same thing with snipers only with the normal weapons its way less than that

  • Aaagh right so if running straight at you no props but running left to right aim ahead /leed you're shot.

    I'll give it a go but I had some one 4 foot in front of me and my aim was bang on 4-5 shots no damage they the shot me twice and melted me I guess I need to strafe more when aiming. 

    Nice one thanks

    I find that the bullet travel time is very very slow. Even for close ranged kills (10m) I have to lead probably half a metre in front of my target. They’re not even sprinting.
