The hit registration in this game is horrific. Ive played multiple games up to this point where I shoot an enemy hit them and they still manage to kill me after taking damage. This is extremely frustrating and leaving me no choice but to head back to the modern warfare franchise. Yea black ops is horrible but they still have a huge following with their other titles.

This is still going to be bad after the December 9th update. The hit reg will still be a mess.
I think this is the last hope for many of us, because the game simply isn’t fun anymore after level 200.
Most likely. Why couldn't they fix it for release? They've been making BF games for decades at this point.
A big part of the problem is too many actions taking place all the time. Vaulting (which PULLS you into objects, very disruptive to prediction), interaction with the uneven geometry, so many freaking animations, and anything else that effects movement and prediction, or whatever tells the server where you actually are in the game world. Too much cluttered information.
I lost a really frustrating gunfight today. The guy was sliding around, I saw where they were headed, lined up the shot, hit them with no less than 6 bullets, he shoots back with what felt like a single bullet, and I'm dead. He wasn't even aware of me until I shot. So in the middle of taking damage straight up in the chest, less than 10 meters away, no idea of my positioning, they win that fight? The server has to be out of sync by almost a full second or two. No way that could happen otherwise.
A lot of game design choices have a huge effect on it. Gamers now seem more interested and focused about graphics over game play. I personally play because of how a game feels mechanically and it's loops. The visuals mean very little when everything else feels like mush.
It's honestly terrible and yet nothing is done about it. I dumped a whole mag into dude that wasn't even moving and he hits me with 3 or 4 shots and I'm dead. I had shot a heli that was just hovering with RPG's. First rocket passed right through, then the 2nd and the 3rd... That same game I had a RPG hit the heli and blow up, but didn't even register I hit it. It's so frustrating that I'm taking a break. Not worth the time or frustration..
Hit registration sucks...???...and you expected something different? c'mon...is EA/Dice. They couldn't program "hello world" without messing it up.
