When I see these kinds of things, I suspect I was already dead according to the server. And my inputs were being ignored.

There seems to be a big discrepancy between what you see and what other players see at times. I wished that Dice would explain what's causing that to happen instead of telling us that it's been "fixed" in this upcoming patch.
I've played plenty of other games with much lower tick rates and they didn't feel as off as BF2042 does at times.
The other day I took damage before actually peeking the corner. I ran up to it like I was going to peek, stopped, and took damage while being completely behind cover. My guess is that it has something to do with some sort of server prediction? Or maybe the server thought I did go beyond the wall, and the tick updates are just too spread out to be accurate? It was really weird.
Dice had to sacrifice a lot to get that 128 player count. I have a feeling that there is something off with how players (client side) report themselves to the servers. Like it's not synced up well? With some players it's noticeably much worse. It's not as precise as it should be.
- @RaginSamI think it was @Anobix who was pointing out the 45hz servers and the firing rate of different weapons earlier in this thread. I don’t think that opinion is gaining enough traction. As I understood it, the server updates being longer than the firing rates allow shots to be completely unrecorded by the game. Our actions are literally being inhibited by the low end servers. You can move and shoot all you want, but if it’s in the microseconds between server updates then it isn’t recognized as having happened. It’s insanity. Maybe Anobix will add a more educated comment than mine and expand on his earlier words.
