Hit reg issues, TTK vs TTD inconsistency.
Just left another game for the same reason as i left the last 3 games. you can shoot a whole clip on an enemy, well aimed, only getting 2 or 3 hitmarkers, the enemy turns around, 1 or 2 bullets and i...

DICE TeamI do play the game and I'm not noticing any hitt reg issues and its public servers as everyone else. @DuaneDibbley,

@EA_Atic that is wild, I normally have a 20ms ping to the server I am on and it feels like I am using rubber bullets, no less than 10 rounds per kill. I have to reload after almost every kill.
I will capture some video and link here.

Not sure how to figure out the actual ping (the game shows either 12ms or 13ms, but it NEVER fluctuates and I am pretty sure this must be a fake value -- in all other games I have 8ms to sometimes over 20ms ping, but for BF2042 I just get one value 12ms (or 13ms) -- can't remember seeing any other value -- and it is fixed over the whole duration of the round).
In any case, if the game servers are located in Frankfurt (I am playing from within Germany), I should definitely get a ping <20ms.
Playing on PC (high specs), at 4k resolution with medium settings (some high, some low).
The problem is It is so obvious that I guess even bad or average players should notice the problem. But for good or at least competitively minded players, that actually care about their impact on the progress of the match, this is really frustrating. You see your cursor ON target, you know the bullet hitting the enemy but the other player seems to have infinite health.
And then you get shot in what seem to be one bullet by weapons that would require many more.
You mentioned: "you are having also activated the new network settings " -- what 'new settings' should we have activated. You reset our settings often enough that I have to go though everything over and over again and I did not set any 'enable better netcode/hitreg' option. So, what have I missed? - EA_Atic
@DuaneDibbley by network settings i mean Network performance settings we got a thread here about it.
Tldr: it will show your and the servers network performance with a various different stats.

If killing and being killed works better with a higher ping (thanks to VPN) than with a low ping, then something is wrong with the game. This is the most disgusting lag compensation I've ever seen. It's a game killer.
Good VPN = CyberGhost (but I live in Germany)
Edit:
1 Server for all of europe, parts of asia and africa. It just can't go well. please think about it.
Players that are having issues, please enable your network stats:

Then when you are having this issue in-game, note your ping and any PL you might have, then post in here with that info and the platform you are playing on.
We need to determine if this is client or server-side and if there are any settings that can remedy this condition. Is it mouse/input lag, network-related, front end, back end, etc?Some players don't have this issue, would be curious to know what their info looked like too.
I would also try to record some gameplay, but for me, this is bugged. I am running Nvidia Geforce Experience to do the live capture and unfortunately this insists on capturing one of the other monitors but not he one the game is running on. I tried to figure out how to select the monitor for live capture, but usually I get a video of my Teamspeak and Browser window in the screen to the right and not of the actual game.
If someone has a hint on how to fix that... ;/@Adamonic

That's less of a hitt reg issue more of a TTD (you getting shot) vs TTK (shooting a person) @TeiIzeitREKTor,
Where hit reg issues are when you are shooting a person and you can see the shoots land on the player but don't register or damage them.
/Atic - @EA_Atic
For the 1-2 frame deaths, Youtube videos won't do any good anyway as the videos there are max 60fps whereas the game locally runs at >120fps and you would be missing much that way I guess. But for the non-existent hitreg it could help to have Youtube videos.
Still, from the two videos it seems like at least the TTD was PRETTY short in both situations (but more than 1 frame though). - @DuaneDibbley try setting your 2nd monitor to primary then set the 1st monitor back to primary. For some reason Nvidia thinks that your 2nd monitor is the primary one, so doing this sometimes fixes the issue.
- @TeiIzeitREKTor First one I saw 3 separate hit markers, don't know if that is enough to kill you without a H/S.
On the second one, it was a Console Aim Assist Headshot on the 2nd marker. Not much you can do there.
I never kill anyone like that, my TTK is super high, yet my TTD is super low, like both of your videos. If they were equal, I would have no problem with it, however, I never get a kill like that. I even get H/S hit markers and they don't die. That's the problem. I often need an entire magazine to take out a single player. But I myself am sent to hell with 2-3 bullets. Up until the penultimate patch, the game felt good to me. It's unplayable since the last patch. A developer has to play on my PC (with 12ms) to see that you can't play like that. The funny thing is: it wasn't like that before! It all felt good and now you feel like you're out of sync with the server. It's better with VPN but not as good as it was 6 months ago.
@DuaneDibbleyI had that some problem too with shadowplay, make sure that you monitor your game monitor is set on as 1st monitor in the windows settings. If doesn't work temporarly disconnect your 2nd monitor and reboot your pc. It should work then, at least it did for me.

/Atic@EA_Atic Here is a video of my bad TTK. It took 15 bullets to kill one player, and I used 22 in all and couldn't kill 2 with the majority of the rounds hitting them. It should be 4-5 bullets to kill based on dmg charts and range. So I either missed half my bullets or my rounds are not registering.
In previous titles, I was able to come off the first target quicker. Now I am lucky to kill 2 with a full clip.
Can you play a first person shooter at 150ms?
Now this is how fast I die every time, literally .25 of second. This guy even shot thru a teammate to kill me. That was 3-4 bullets like it should be, but my kills are never like this.
- @TeiIzeitREKTor That shows you how much lag comp is being used to make it so playable …..now just think how this player looks against local player perspectives.
I have played many games back in the day with high pings and it’s never played as well as that! Since the last patch I never or hardly win 1v1 gun fights.
I always rock an AR and if I meet the BSV or MP9 or K30 I'm dead before I can even react.
- EA_Atic
Can you upload that to YouTube instead for better quality. :P @Adamonic,
@TeiIzeitREKTor, based on that video it looks like you can. The TTD in the end is very fast on you, might be connected with the 150 ping.The 200 ping videos is also from March I would like to see more new as a lot changed with Seasons 1 patch.
/Atic - @TeiIzeitREKTor wow that's really screwed up. Actually explains certain situations I had in game.
Imagine living in area with under 15ms ping. I would also normally say that the turbo kill is at the 150ms at the end of the video. But my experience is that it would have happened the same way with 15ms.
Here's an example from just now:

How to play BF2042 like this?
Here is another scene:

I count at least 3 hits and the opponent still has 65hp. Is it wanted like that?

I can second this. I also had such moments in the game. Now at least I know it wasn't completely my fault.
