S3 Hit Registration and Footsteps
I did not have many issues with hit registration at all prior to S3, but when S3 hit, I am now experiencing many issues with hit detection and registration.
I have found myself sinking bullets in enemy players and not seeing registration. This occurs in close quarters (within 5-10feet) and beyond. I am also seeing cases where I die from enemy bullets while behind cover. The hit registration / detection took a major nose dive.
I am unsure why, but hearing enemies footsteps is impossible. There can be enemies running up behind me and I don’t hear them until they are within 5ft of me, and they’ve already pressed the takedown command to put a knife in my back. I’ve tried all the different sound settings. I’ve even tried different head sets, but the result is the same; when enemies are running towards you and your back is to them you cannot hear them. It’s awful. There are even times where you cannot hear an enemy use a zip line and you’re within 5 - 10 feet of it.
I’ve played the Bf6 entry on console with mouse and keyboard where with all prior titles I played on PC. I haven’t felt many noticeable differences with recoil control.
If anyone else is experiencing these same or similar issues please upvote and/or add a comment. Hopefully the more who contribute with their similar experiences, stories and/or upvotes, the more EA will take to heart that something drastic changed with S3 that needs to be swiftly addressed.
