Re: Why am I getting downed in a matter of 2 seconds, yet....

I appreciate all the input guys. But there are times I will get first shots out before a team even notices me 

and i get a lot of shots put into the enemy with no drop. With the amount of cheaters (aimbot, no recoil scripts)

it could be easily that I am encountering cheaters, which i hope is fixed asap.

Also latency could be an issue on their end (I play wired with the best comcast internet speeds)

Meaning on my screen I could be hitting, but on their end they aren't even getting hit because they are not 

exactly where I see them on my screen.

I know this game is new, and that it will get fixed over time. It just gets annoying, and i think that it's justified. 

For example, there are games where Ill have a wingman and hit nearly EVERY shot, then their are games 

where I aim right at people and i don't get a single hit marker.

Without video footage of you playing there is no way to determine if you're just bad at the game or it's a hacker.

Crap happens. I've had times where I was laying down fully automatic fire and people walked right through my line of fire and apparently juuuust right to walk through the gap between two bullets.

I've had times where I would shoot a Peacekeeper at someone's chest and the damage numbers told me I did 7 damage, which is a single pellet in the leg, which is rather improbable considering where I was aiming. 

Other games got those kinds of "what you see isn't what the server sees" situations too. Like when you front flip into the ball in Rocket league and your butt just phases through the ball and everyone else just sees the ball wiggling a little bit and it keeps moving as if it didn't get touched because the server decided you didn't hit it after all.

I hear you on the, what seem like marshmallow bullets from the Wingman. Looks like I'm hitting shots dead bang........ but nothing.

I broke more than one controller playing Cod with all if it's truly atrocious connection issues over the (many) years. Apex is far better imo.

Lag/latency is frustrating though. It's a mixture of lag, how many people are in close proximity on the map and what is going on at the time.
