My experience is similar.
When I shoot someone (Flatline, 301) I can put a half of clip into running enemy and they wont' slow down a bit. like not at all.
I have been in numerous fights where I shot someone with Flatline and they just jump all over and slide-jump immediately without losing any momentum.
No shooting seems to slow down some players.
When I am being hit by a Flatline it is like almost instant decrease in momentum.
So the main question here is how the same game can feel/behave differently for different players?
@PsyhiX69 @xpl0its @dSKyNafinchin I'm sorry for the late reply. The heavy bullets feel like they have a more "slowing" effect becuase a lot of the heavy weapons have huge magazine and a slower fire rate compared to their light and energy counterparts. The slowing effect only applies once every 3 seconds and the reason why you dont see such effect when spraying someone with a burst weapon like the R99 compared to the Rampage/Spitfire/Flatline with huge magazines that can last around more than 3 seconds especially with purple magazines. Hope I made sense. What the OP is experiencing though might be a mix of both server issues and the slowing down effect of the bullets. You can also feel the "slow effect" a lot when you're being shot down by the R301 and Hemlok in single fire mode and G7 scout.

- dSKyNafinchin4 years agoHero@Cheese9Man Great info about the timing of it! I didn't know how long it lasted. I wasn't doubting that all bullets slow you down equally. It just gets confusing for me sometimes, when I am getting shot (by any gun) and am slowed down for what seems like way more than .25s every 3s, but when I am shooting people (with any gun), they don't seem to suffer from the slowdown, at least not visually. I'm guessing it's just a mixture of all the other variables though, like my own travel speed & direction, compared to the person I'm shooting and whatnot. Thanks again for the info!

Unless there is something in the latest Season 12 Patch Notes/Update, then something has seriously changed, effecting this problem.
I'm not talking about anything that we have all typically experienced in the past.
Nothing has ever happened like this until Season 12; EXTREME SLOWING DOWN!
- RaginSam4 years agoSeasoned Ace@xpl0its Just experienced this last game. Came to a complete standstill while getting shot in the back. Like couldn't move at all, locked in place.
There's a lot more to game than just the built in mechanics people aren't considering. It could be something do with the servers, hit reg, an exploit, straight up cheat, or some sort of network thing. I'm getting stuck on weird geometry, and I'm getting that slow slide a lot more than ever before.
