You did it again: Last EVO patch ruined the game back

What you did to evos in the last patch made my life misserable again... Now any unskilled player has more time to die, to react even when looting in the open. This means also more time revealing the shooter position, and much less time being attacking, because as soon as you reveal your position teh entire enemy squad comes for you.

Basicaly, gameplay went in favor of thoughtless acrobats instead of smart combat thinking. 

TTK sucks again now, and since NETCODE is still the WORST IN HISTORY, you need even more hits to kill: I just unloaded an entire mag of volt to a caustinc on a roof that didn't even see it coming, and after that half a 301 mag. I COULDN'T KNOCK HIM DOWN!!! seriously????

First of all , revealing the shooter position ... well honestly if you would play the game instead of camping and hoping for a kill then bro, you would understand that shooter position is used in many ways.

Secondly gameplay went in favor of thoughtless action -- that is absolutely wrong unless you are playing in gold leagues , i found it hard to deal with the ape/yolo squads in plat/diamond/d3 lobbies because they would have the ability to push with 50hp(after being damaged and stunned and whatever) without any thought what so ever because they needed to hit me between 7 to 12 times to down me if i had a blue shield. It was awful because it enabled the people that put no thought in their gameplay and had no gamesense to push like mad people.

Third , if you unloaded an entire mag of volt and half a 301 mag you either missed a lot or you gave him the time for a damn phoenix kit .... i usually down red evo caustics with 1 mag of 301 or 1 mag of volt if i'm not potationg that day, also the mag itself does more damage than a full red evo caustic if you go to the firing range and check it out  ... let alone the volt , its even worse.

So to conclude... even tho you have x nr of kills and x nr of whatever stats it feels like you were lacking if the new ttk made you feel good , you are talking about tarkov tactics here not high skill cap games like apex.

Ok, let me clarify something:

1. This does not happens all the time. It happens randomly to me depending on the server I'm connected to.
2. I usually use the firing range as warm up, it also gives me a good idea of how good is the server working (if my wingman hits go through without damage, i know i have to re-connect to a different server
   1. An easy way to see if your hits are being missed by the server is if you see the "hit crosshair" but not the damage numbers (you have to configure damage to pile up by hit to be able to detect this)
3. In the case I'm reporting, the caustic was standing still on a roof 45 degrees below me (aiming to one of my teammates), while i was on a risk no more than 30m distance. I aimed to the head, 100% shots went through, but less than half actually marked as hits. The guy noticed the fire and ran away while I was swapping weapons, receiving most of my 301 spray in which I did messed some shots.
4. Of course, this is not common, neither happens to me all the time, it does if servers are crowded and at certain times.
5. I connected to another server and the problem disappeared. 

For those blaming aim: Please note that if you suck, you suck all the time, not randomly. When you suck, you don't solve the "no damage" issue by jumping between servers. You are just bad, you die more than you kill, all problems you DO NOT experience randomly, and you cannot cannot solve by reconnecting to a different location.

Finally, I'll stop this thread here, everybody knows that I'm telling the truth, mostly the devs, they know the truth. It's a know issue, and there are more than 1000 posts in this forum about this. Lowering the TTK at start of season 6 made the problem seem to disappear but not because it wasn't there, it was because you needed less shots to kill a guy, so then the hits the server misses are compensated by your positional and aiming skill. 

BTW, I managed to decrease the "server-miss ratio" by tweaking the advanced configuration of my network card, which is actually giving more work to my CPU but it can manage. 

Have fun, see you around.
