shot registration

[LightBred]

I have done a few searches buuuuuuuuut haven't found a def answer on what I need...

I know rounds do not register always, BUT is it a definite register when you see the little "hit markers" light up around your cross hair when you're shooting at someone??

Re: shot registration

Im pretty sure that if you see the marks, the shot registers. Then again....this is BF2, so Im pretty sure that its never correct.....which doesn't really answer your question so Ill stop talking now.

Re: shot registration

Better yet, I've come to the conclusion that while in 3 shot burst, the damage is only counted after the last round hits, rather than damage for each individual round.

Re: shot registration

yer if you see the x its a hit.
and with the burst thing, you mean it takes 3 rounds of damage but only when last round hits yeh?

Re: shot registration

But I have also noticed, especially with grenades, the hit indicator will show before you throw the nade...

Re: shot registration

If you are near some artillery canons, and you try to fire off a grenade .. then watch your hit indicator, it's going crazy even b4 u throw the grenade at the artillery.

I think that's when you hit them with the 'nade before it explodes. Like when you hit them on the head and you get a kill, then the nade explodes.

I have noticed something like that with the g36e, I thought it was just me..

Re: shot registration

I have, by far, the worst hit registration ever. I can be drilling someone, and getting the confirmed 'hit' icons, and they still won't die.

I've pretty much given up on playing BF2 on this computer, dunno if it's the video card, but the experience has got noticeably worse in the past few months.
All benchmark programs tell me the card (6600GT) has a high rating, and there is no problems, but BF2 is basically unplayable (even at 1024x768 Low settings) Too many stutters, pauses, bad hit registers, the whole thing is making my blood pressure rise.

Re: shot registration

I have gotten a hit indicator after bouncing a grenade of a guys head, don't know if it was coincidence or what exactly was going on with that.

Re: shot registration

the "hit indicator" show when a shot registers with the server. Dust show's when it regs client side.

Re: shot registration

for some reason, last night, iwas getting direct hits with the GL...i mean like it would land on their head, and explode, but they walk on untouched and unharmed.....this happened to me a number of times last night....i dno WTF is up but in one round it happened about 4-5 times...
