God Mode with 1.40 ?

[TuSC]

I've noticed this on a few servers with several players and do not suspect hax are involved with this.

I do believe it is a new glitch.

What I've been witnessing are players who are absorbing AMAZING amounts of damage before dying.

Such as... a character caught unaware from behind by me in a walker. I had the drop on him sitting still and he didn't die despite putting several seconds of rounds into his back. Enough to kill 3 men. His HP went to WAY low... maybe 5%.. but he didn't die. This guy was a medic, but no med kit was out.

Another time I had it happen pre-game waiting for the server to fill. I spotted a guy who had spawned and let fly with the Lambert. Mind you, this was Gibraltar... he was PAC standing by the flag pole... I was Recon with Lambert and on the sand to the "left" of the flag when you approach the PAC base (I was roughly behind where the walker spawns). I emptied 3 full clips into him before he died. This was a stationary, non-playing, non-medic character.... I must have hit him with ever round, but he wouldn't die.

This sort of thing has happened a number of times and is disconcerting. I don't have any issues with lag. The servers I play on tend to be low lag also.

Who else has come across this since the 1.4 came out?

Don't you hate it when the management tards at game companies keep having their guys "fix" the game? This is no longer the game I bought by my reckoning. I've been tempted on occasion to take the install agreements to a lawyer to see if we can go after them for changing content and playability like this. The whole game is nerf'd and lame now.

wow.......it's nice to know that i'm not the only one! I, on the other hand, also have problems with my connection. I have checked my line speed and i am 3x faster that T1. I constantly suffer massive lag.......mostly just before i die. When that doesn't happen, I generally die/blow-up with one or 2 shots. I pump 20x more ammo into people and things and it doesn't do ****. VERY DISCONCERTING!!! I spent good money for this game and i'm really tired of getting dicked every time I play. Sadly, it's the same thing with BF2. These people make it NOT fun.

the other person could have been lagging i suppose, not sure if that would affect your hit detection or not.

[iQue]

It does. Lag plays a big role in how good you play the game... Together with the BF series at times somewhat weird hit detection you are gonna see bugs like this sometimes.

You see the guy, shoot, but he is really 1 m to the left but due to lag it looks like he is right in front of you. That sucks.

[Lunien]

haha OR the guy could have a crapload of med packs around him :P jkjk..probably lag on the target's part

[iQue]

Yeah like in BF2 where you just touch a medpac and you go to 100 health immediately

[Nawiedzony]

this happend to many ppl way before 1.40 relase so its not patch 1.40 fault, i many times empty all ammo in someone back and nothing he turn to me and kill me with few bulets, happend to me many times

I had it happen to me in 1.25. I shot the same guy in the head 5 times with a Morretti and I didn't even hit him once. It wasn't very far away either, maybe 120m. And this was on a server where my ping was 18.

Just dismiss it, if it happens exit the server and join another one.

[Dtneter]

same happened for me i lobbed a nade next to one person and it just flew like 2-3 meters high and landed again without hp loss then i threw all my c4 packs around him and that killed him :P

[Fingulfin]

Happened to me once in 1.20, me and 3 squad mates sat there and unloaded clips into this one guy, and he didn't die. He then proceeded to rape all three of us :|:

[Dutch]

Yeah I think its just lag, I've had it happen too

[m3talc0re]

I've been having the sniper rifle issue a lot here lately. I'll shoot at someone and be dead on target, but hit nothing. This one guy was prone on top of the overpass next to silo 2 on Suez. I was up on the tower above him (where you can clearly see silo 5). He couldn't have been more than 20 feet from me. I unloaded a full clip into him and hit nothing. It took another half clip to kill him. The guy was prone and only moving enough to aim left and right at the silo, so it's not like the lagged hitbox could've been far from him..

I had godmode on today in an APC. I grabbed our APC by the titan base and some squad had motion mined it to death. I crept forward till the first one hit me, and got all kinds of light and smoke, but no damage. So I pulled forward again, got hit again, and nothing. I ran through all 5 of them, then took several pilum shots, probably 6 volleys from 2 seperate gunships including 2 tv missiles, several tank rounds, I even survived a fully loaded jihad-speeder. I only finally died when some sap podded onto the top of the apc.
