"Enemies get double damage, My legend gets half damage"
This is a false statement if what you mean is that EA is giving some players the ability to deal more dmg per bullet and other players less.
Lets not spread false information.
I see that you are currently frustrated with the game, we all need breaks sometimes.
I have taken anywhere from 1-2 week or even 3-4 week breaks from the game and came back very refreshed for it.
I wish you the best of luck, gaming and IRL.
- @Asmodeus566 I'm not making any claims, I'm just sating my first hand experience.
I've played this game since season 1. Took a long break. Came back.
I know how the game works when it's working right.
I'm getting downed within half a second, fullshields and health from a Spitfire gun;
I've emptied a whole spitfire magazine into someone's back and they run off. I then empty another half a magazine into their back as they're running off and they do not get downed.
Their shields barely shatter.
I'm getting shot feedback on each hit.
You can't tell me that is normal. I know for a fact what is normal. That's not how the game was working beginning of season. Wasn't how it was working in other seasons. Maybe at points. But you cannot deny that that is my experience.
I was good hundreds of kills ahead of my deaths, within 3 days of playing (for only a couple hours at a time), my deaths have surpassed my kills.
I have a positive kd each season (maybe barring 1 or two I don't know)
I average 60-80 wins per season.
My wins are currently on 24.
Win lose draw I don't care (I do), but if when I shoot people they take the same time/dmg to kill as do I (all other factors equal) then I have no complaints (beyond MM (; ).
But this is not the case. You know it.
You stand then and head on hit someone with a whole spitfire mag, enemy does not even move laterally. You drill them with every shot. Then "boom boom" 2 shots and you're downed in less than half a second.
Even with the same gun. That is the experience. This isn't about "take a break", that won't change anything.
I'm not making any claims about this or that, I'm just stating the cold facts of my experience.
And this is with 12-40ms connection and no packet loss.
Again, not making any claims about whatever, just detailing my experience. Others too are having this experience.- @1ronKeys There's either a connection issue, server issue or game version issue. I've not had the issues you've had once this season and I've played on local NA 25 ping and EU 125 ping. You've mentioned you are on PS4. I am on PS5. This season they added the upgraded version for next gen consoles. Perhaps that's why there's an issue. The other guy on this forum complaining the most is on switch. From what I've seen of gameplay on that the difference in frames is crazy and can explain a lot of the issues. Now let's apply that to your game. PS4 maxes out somewhere in the 40s for frames. If more of the playerbase is on 120 frames perhaps that's part of the issue.
- @Asmodeus566 I confirm what he said @1ronKeys, it almost always happens to me too, I went from 1.5kd to 0.7 after the release of this season, I doubt that I have lost my ability in such a short time, one thing is very clear (YOU HAVE A BIG PROBLEM WITH CHEATERS AND SERVERS)
@lnxtvDefinitely a lot of cheaters, not sure how anyone can deny it's not an issue. The servers have been a bit iffy this season, well, every season. Everything feels a bit laggy, like you're walking through jello at times. Not sure if people are manipulating that somehow.
@1ronKeysIt sounds like you run into the reduced damage thing a lot more than I do, but it definitely seems like something is up. Enemies just not taking damage, even though you're barrel stuffing them.
The "Time to Death" vs "TTK" seems vastly different too, like you've been saying. Respawn had an article explaining their network, it wasn't very good. They try to be "fair" to all players, so basically people with high ping have a better chance, at the cost of the game not feeling as responsive as it should for a shooter. So who knows if someone has figured out how to completely manipulate that.

Actually, its quirk of netcode. You can literally notice in LTMs that some people are mega sensitive on your bullets, you melt them EZ, while some cant register hits even when they are standing still, and you need 3 + mags to kill them.@SrksiiI think this is how it feels because of latency and netcode hit detection issues and not a statement of fact. Getting shot around corners, enemies seemingly hitting you 15 times in milliseconds, and you emptying clips into people and them not getting knocked are all symptoms of that.
