Shoot my shadow i die

I'm 2 meters behind cover.

Someone shoots 2 meters wide of me at where I was 2 seconds ago.

I die.

This game is done. Game is broken shambles.

EVERY GAME. Now.

Empty 2 magazines in someone's head. Nope they still live.

What supposed to do? Can't shoot people because bullets do no damage.

Can't hide behind cover cause just shoot 5 meters wide of me or into the past.

Shambolic.

    @1ronKeysYep, this happens to me every game now too. Cover is irrelevant in this season since you can't really escape shots. I went into a building and shut the door behind me to get away from a grenade and it still killed me. The thunderdome map is especially bad since if you hide behind a rock and they hit the empty space where you just were you still die.

    Also, I second that the damage right now is a joke, I filled a guy up with 5 clips of the nemesis and he didn't die.  The guns have been nerfed and the recoil has been changed to the point its not even the same game.

    @AymCTL I don't know what gun types you like to run with...

    But I've been having some luck with a 3030 and RE45 despite the nerf and despite the tragic game mechanics right now
  • could you please post some game play videos , I'm very curious to see what is happening on your end.

    if you are on console you record it very easily

    @maximas1986 Unfortunately I don't always get to - my 10 kill win with Ballistic yesterday - screenshot proof in another thread - my console didn't capture any of it. Heartbroken and I'd love to share that with you. So i don't always get to capture stuff and tend to reser3ve it for th3 good stuff. Got maybe some bad things. But doesn't always show the audio-controller feedback as well. But I can assure.

    I even said there have been a few games where I tickle someome with a gun and it downs them immediately. And worked in my favor. But it's wildly inconsistent. Either way. And shouldn't be. My 10 kill win wasn't particularly perfect hit reg either. But had fortune of a lot of upper hand situations.

    @1ronKeys Over the weekend I played with a friend from Netherlands so I was on the server you normally play on 100+ ping Most of the time the game worked but I did experience some weird lag spikes and instances where my guns were hitting making awful noise and not registering. I have yet to have this issue on NA servers on lower ping. I'm curious if you could try something- Before going into the lobby go to the server screen and select New York. Play for a bit on that and see what happens.
  • @1ronKeys

    Just a quick yardstick: I only play BR, and only pubs, on xbox, SC server at around 40-50 ms ping. I've been reading about the laggy, sticky, slow-moving, high-ping matches that people are having, but I have yet to experience any of this myself. Don't know if it's a platform issue, or a game type issue, or an internet thing. I'm starting to feel downright lucky given how many people are talking about this.

    Yup. Used to be on VA or NY servers when I lived in NH, but recently moved to FL and now am on SC servers. Slightly higher ping than I used to get in the northeast, but still seems to play the same.
