My TTD faster than fastest weapon's TTK

What in God's creation is going on with this game?

I have a 25 ping, zero packet loss, yet only 13 of my 17 hits register at the server while I die to a Console player with a VHX in 177ms without a Headshot? That is not even possible.

How is he getting two hits within 22.2ms (within 1 server tick)? It is right there on the damage log. 

Seriously DICE what is going on? I died to 4 shots in 8ms while my bullet hits are not registering at the server with a 25 ping. These 45Hz servers are garbage and you know it.

This is not a one-off, I have hundreds of these. it is like I have rubber bullets and on my side I die instantly. 0.177 of a second is beyond ridiculous without it being a headshot or single shot kill weapon.

    @AdamonicHonestly I think this is some sort of weird lag compensation that kicks in because I've experienced the alpha damage deaths from ARs too. It happens very rarely, though. Like, maybe once or twice a ~4 hour session. I usually assume it's because the person probably has 300+ ping or something.

    Personally I definitely do not have issues with hit reg commonly. I mainly use the AEK which is one of the highest ROF guns and I never get "phantom bullets" except specifically on Redacted in specific areas and it's pretty easy to tell when there is a bug in the map instead of the game's actual hit reg. The only times I ever really lose a gunfight is if the other person notices me first and gets the first 1-2 shots off, but I almost always win 1v1 fights. The vast majority of my deaths are from getting teamshot or overrun. Sometimes you might die instantly from being teamshot and it just seems like you got alpha killed. Although you have the metrics there to tell what damage you are taking too.

    The game would definitely benefit from having 60hz servers again though, obviously. When I go back and play BF4 again occasionally that game just feels so much more buttery smooth somehow but I can't really explain why it feels like that. Probably since it's slower paced.

    @SVND0WN Idk usually hit reg issues are hits getting lost or ignored. What you/Dice describe is what I'd consider as a bug in the gadget conditions causing them to not be lost or ignored but intercepted.
