Having the same issues here. Difficult to hit someone and needing a lot of bullets for a kill and the enemy takes me down with 1 or 2 bullets within 0,1 second.
BF3 looks pretty, but its just a giant mess. Party issues, glitches, lag and hit detection issues just plaque this game. Makes me go back to Bad Company 2.
most of the reasons why you dont hit the target, is because of the suppression effect, you can still aim alright, but the bullets do not go the way you want them to, because u are supressed. so the last one wasnt hit detection, just cause u were supressed and missed. not ideal to evaluate the hit detection based on demo.
I have this on PC, MW3 on the 360. I run FiOS through both, never with anything else running so I can get the best results while playing. The lag in BF3 is ridiculous, and it takes away any skill whatsoever. It's all luck. MW3 never gives me that problem. When I shoot someone that's in my sights, it hits them, as it SHOULD. In BF3, it's hard enough to deal with the ridiculous recoil as it is, but then I need to combat the server's HD too? No thanks. I've slowly been playing MW3 more and letting
I hate this in BF 3, I also tried like video creator CQ Sniper Rifle with ACOG or RDS couldn't hit anything with this, same with ShotgunI used yesterday 870 MCS HOLO scope with 12g Slugs... I spoted guy so aim and shoot.. and that was from 5 m or so... 1 shot nothing, 2nd,3rd, 4th still nothing... no hit marker I was like WTF.. he turned around instant death for me.... DICE fix it FFS.
Well I have problems like this everyday. This games hit reg sucks big time! They wont fix it cus they cant xD Go back and play cod4 promod which got almost to noone problems!
LOL! thats your fault for trying to quickscope. Your shot will be inaccurate ass hole. This game has PERFECT hit detection. The You guys just don't know anything about, range, damage multipliers, ITS MAIN PLATOFORM IS THE PC. Until you really understand how this game works, don't talk about it, period.
@MrSniperscope Look who's talking, COD is better. Cod is the number 1 action game in the whole world. And it doesn't have dedicated servers. Your telling me to grow up, yet again you type like a 9 year old.
i have to play hardcore now .. core is a mess . shoot first .empty clip .die with what seems one bullet.!!.more than 2 people with there backs to you.. dont waste bullets you know they will turn round after hearing your shot and waste you.. and before you say it it doesn't happen much on hardcore so it aint my aim
Unfortunately I have to agree with some people on this. The hit detection on this game is awful compared to other shooters. Even the previous installment to this series has a much better hit detection rate. I may be wrong though because I only have the 360 one.
I own battlefield 3. I have been a competitive COD gamer in the past but wanted to switch to bf3. I got a new rig and all. I play online with pings from 30 to max 70 and the hit detection is ABSOLUTE SHIT in Bf3!!!! I am not trying to hate this game at all. I wanted it to win against cod but it is unplayable because of this fact.... Apparently John Carmacks code works pretty well, even based on q3.
I agree with many others, its the netcode not your ping. (as long as its not over ... ~100/150) . But even with high ping on a good netcode you can "count" the lag into your aiming and still hit. I didnt felt this much with Support but on sniper i get it so many times especially on a sniper duel where my bullets just never reach the enemy but i got hit. it seems it happens with all scopes but the lower the magnifying is the more it happens? Wired...
There were a few there that made no sense, but for the most part, you were either firing while still moving your weapon which causes it to miss most of the time, or being suppressed which also causes you to miss.
on your 2nd example, you are suffering from 'suppression', so even if u aim straight, your bullet will go flying. thats a natural one and on purpose, but for the first one, im not so sure, just a bug.
happens to me all the time. Especially if all the opposing player is showing is there head and I hit means i hit them in the head. never would get a head hit though. But I can get shot from 900ft away with a hand gun.
Zooming and then shooting has big deviation, at least on the sniper rifles. In this case there is no bad hit registration, just big deviation because of the quick scope.
@Eddy929292 its net code from april 2011 this is the beta mate. battlefiewld doesnt have hit detection it uses ballistics its nto liek cod which cant even get hit detection right with the same engine 8 years and counting lol
@Eddy929292 Yeah I agree, here it's like I die with 2 bullas, and I need each time all a clip to kill one guy :/ I recorded video and with slow mo we can see that maybe 1 bullas out of 3 is counted... The hitreg was one more time very disappointing in that game... n btw Ive a high performance PC with low ping... more frustrated than happy. sucking multiplayer game
This BS is still fucking happening. It started for me the other day... headshots on hardcore with the m98b dont fucking kill people, even though Ive clearly been hitting them in the head i.e. blood sprays out their face and I get a hitmarker but no kill - not even an assist. Why is this happening? My internet? or a server issue?
@tiu007 thats why i dont play bf, say its better than cod or whatever other game as much as you want, but in a game that bullets register whenever the fuck they want, is simply not a good shooter.
Today I decided to join some hardcore tdm and play with the bolt action snipers a bit to practice my aim. I joined servers with 60 ping max, and man, I swear there is absolutely no fking way I could miss those shots. My targets were stationary, I was shooting body shots, and there was no hitmarker, no damage, and then I'd die after getting behind solid cover. It happens a lot in metro 64 but i thought it's because of the noobtube spam and high population. But even in 16 man tdm it happens a lot.
The last one missed because you were suppressed. Notice the screen going blurry when you get shot? Well, you are suppressed and the accuracy of your weapon goes to shit.
Naw, fuck that. This game just has BAD hit detection, and I'm not gonna defend it. I love Battlefield 3, but if the hit detection and TDM spawns were fixed, this game would be golden.
@ThaBattalionTV I have more problems with the serverside delay that puts highping players at a ridiculous advantage. Didn't really notice bad hit detection, just stupid damage-lag like enemies dying 2 seconds after i stopped shooting or dying behind cover. And yeah, I played on servers with a ping under 50.
Just wanted to point out that there was the supression effect in play in the last scene.
happens all the time man, sometimes some games would play really good, like 4 or 5 perfectly aimed bullets from my assault rifle does the job. other times i spray the whole clip and the guy turns around and shoots me dead.
@llinsane1ll I think your problem may be lag,i never have hit detection problems in a server with good connection,but when the server is lagging...then the hit detection fucks up.
@swatbot2611 Doubt it. Everyone points to lag. Players and devs. Do I think it has SOME to do with it? Ok sure, but I very much think the majority of the problem is the game itself.
@Zvanteman Guess they went for unrealism in the fact that shooting someone in the chest with a high-powered sniper rifle when the bullet clearly hit the dude doesn't kill him...lol
It's most likely because of the scope you had on your sniper. Standing/moving + a low powered scope on a rifle. DICE doesn't like quickscoping, and that's nearly what you were trying to do.
Thats because how accurate you are seems to depend a lot on what unlocks you have, it seems to be completely unrelated to how well you aim. Seems DICE looked at fallout 3 and thought "Thats how we should do it boys". Sarcasm over, I also own this game and the hit registering does suck badly sometimes.
LAG, and the fact that it's a BETA are two very good factors of why you were doing so poorly. plus you were trying to quickscope in a game that doesn't allow that.
this game is fucked, im so tired of it. we got fucked simple as that. why would you have a perfect working game then release patches that fuck it up
