Eva 8 does not register hits or is insanely inaccurate

It's by far one of the worst guns in the game. It You can literally have the enemies body (center of mass) in the hip fire sites on the Eva 8 and the game won't register hits. The gun is seriously broken and in need of major repairs. I won't pick it up unless I absolutely have to.

  • @DarthValtrexEva8 with purple bolt destroys at close range. It's not supposed to be used at any longer range, which is pretty obvious if you think about it's spread pattern of 8 - the center has only 1 pellet, so you have to be close enough to hit everything. Of course you can aim to the side to hit just 1 side of the spread, but might as well have a better suited weapon.
    If you're using it at more than 20m, you're doing it wrong.

    P.S. Aren't you tired from complaining about non-issues yet? Is that some kind of trolling?

    It’s either server lag or the gun is broken. I’m using at close range only it will hit multiple pellets then it won’t hit at all. The gun is stupid and does not function right half the time. I’m not the only one who complains about it. No one plays with it on xbox because the gun is such trash.

    prime example you know those boxes at train station? That have the ziplines X. I had one up there and was shooting at a guy standing in the entrance to it. It was not registering and it should have been

    Eva 8 is the only shotgun I'll use and I love it. By sounds of it it was more likely to be lag in your game . I cant say I've experienced the effects your having .

  • Hello i post few weks ago about hit registration you have this problem too  im not even post anymore about it  because they dont fix it this game anyway 

  • @Biochemikas I think it's a very underused, under estimated shotgun.
    Everyone runs the Peacekeeper, but as you say with purple bolt it's insane at close range.
  • I had the same thing happen to me as well not too long ago. It may have been server lag, but I know the feeling when shots don't register (not one pellet) at near point-blank range, and it's hard to believe that the enemy weaved between each shot flawlessly. I've never had this happen with the Peacekeeper though.

  • this happens to every weapon in the game, not just the Eva 8. Ive had bullets not register with the wingman, PK, Eva, Longbow, R-99. its a server issue. youll watch the tracer hit their body, youll hear the shield take the bullet but no dmg will appear. Its just poor net code. ive also seen bullets register twice on people before
