Battlefield: Bad Company 2 - Another Hit Registration Video

I slowed the original video down by 16 times to show the individual frames. In the first segment, you can see a bullet registration seemly occur in empty space. The second segment shows about eight to ten clean shots into an enemy's chest, but only a few of those shots register as a hit.

Is this a lag issue? My latency was pretty low, since the server is basically in my back yard, but I'm not sure what the latency of the enemy player was.

Ping wasn't an issue in this case, latency was low. In fact this was a local server, not more than 10 miles away from my home.

Arguably, this isn't the best example of hit registration in BC2. I rarely record games, and this just happened to be one small example that I caught with FRAPS.

I played the BF3 pre-alpha demo; hit registration felt solid! Alpha reports confirm that BF3's hit registration even on high-latency servers above 200ms looks good. I'm confident it won't be as bad as BC2.

i dont ever have bad hit detection, it just always works well

Ping doesn't factor into this all the time. Bullet registration is a constant issue in BFBC2 and many bullshit kills or enemy kills occur because of it.

@dubmaticJRJ two words: you fool

Ping has nothing to do with it. If it was lag, the hit markers would only be delayed. Here they dont show up at all.

one word: PING

This is my one and only concern with BF3.
