Hitboxes in bf

[imported_Sin317]

seriously, wtf is wrong with them ? i'm kinda getting ****ed at the sometimes total randomness of hit detection. I cant count anymore , how many times i sneaked behind a guy with a knife or pistol (especially the pistol part ****ing me off lol) shooting a whole clip in his fricking neck and head , guy of course turns around like nothing ever happend and start to panic jump around and spray the hell out of me, which of course isnt necessary , since usually the first 1-2 bullet kill me anyway ...

oh and dont get me with lack of skill or something , im talking about a trget that doesnt move and from point blank, nobody could possible miss that in rl.


oh but if i shoot the guy from 50+ M with my pistol , he dies after 3 bulllets ...


right.


btw does this still exist in bf2 , that you actually shoot from player model center and not where the gun actually is ? like in bf42 ? cause that ould explain , why , if you crouch the moment someone comes across you and shoot , while he shoots on stance, that usually the one standing kills you lol.


oh i really hope they gonna make something about this... I want to be killed because the other guy is better then me , not because some random bs cant connect my hits.

Sadly it is rumoured that "they" built this in deliberately to make the game "more fun" to play.

I agree it is total crap, you sneak behind someone and are knifing away hearing the stab noises, but no damage. Or you pistol someone who is standing still right next to you and after 10 bullets they turn around and noob nade you or something.

Or the hilarity of lying prone and firing 1 round shots (or 3 round bursts with m16 etc) at a stationary person merely 25m away that somehow get lost on the way to their body, yet somebody running with eg a shotgun 200m away can kill you with one hit. I also agree about the magic pistol sniping - somehow it seems more deadly at long range. Just try sniping with the pistol from the hotel on oman, very funny!

It's just the crap game engine, built by people who in all probability don't even test the game before releasing it, else how could a patch causing a server memory leak (and constant crashing as a result) have been approved for public use?

It's like the AA missiles, they made them miss so often so that they could make a fun preview video before release showing a missile flying through the side of a blackhawk and everyone would go "oh wow a missile flying through the black hawk how cool!!!"

^ Yea, that is so annoying. I had a heli pinned down with the minigun ripping him apart. The rockets had just reloaded. And I shot them. They went DIRECTLY to him and went straight through him. I also got really annoyed when I put 3 C4s on a heli who took off. I pressed the trigger and they exploded but the heli came out not smoking or anything.

Lol, I found that the pistol is more accurate. No bullet drop, no delay after shooting. As long as it's pointed at the enemy when you shoot, it hits!

while i get the sarcasm and agree with you on the crap that is in this game, i am sure they tested it before releasing it, save the memory leak issue. the hitbox issue suxz, adapt and overcome. easy for me to say cause i still suck.

Yeah I was in a HARDCORE KNIFE BATTLE yesterday and I got 4, FOUR, 1, 2, 3, 4!!!!! 'hit puffs'. Course, none of them counted and he knifed me soon after.

lol and the 'panic jump' you speak of, I see that so often. I hate noobs with no honor.
