Hello people

Wandering if some1 else also has these problems when shooting and the shots dont registrate at all.

I mean even with the crosshair pointblank on the enemy theres no hit.Same with the crosshair straight on the head ,no headshots .

Like this afternoon, i was shooting an enemy that stood completely still,crosshair spot on,17 bullets later still no kill! checking headshots,,0.

Then he sees me,shoots 5 times and guess what ,,yep im dead :).

I know im just an average "skilled" player but this is getting really strange and a little frustrating also.

It seems to happen mostly on Beg2 server and almost never on NQ1 or silent1.

And when i spec other players they have the crosshair way off but still getting hit registrations.This can be offcourse because of some delay/connection etc

My settings are mostly default so im not using a special cfg or something.So maybe some simple advice or tips to solve this?

thx ExC

can you send a demo for an example? after watching the demo, we can tell exactly what the problem is. so far, it sounds like something very strange lol

Yes if you could post a demo also while viewing demos you can enable debug bullet paths to see exactly what happened.

I'm very interested in that demo too. It happened to me some days ago too, also on Beg#2. I could swear my little red dot was straight to his head. Shot all 30 Bullets of Thompson and had barely hits.

@Aardappel had the same issues yesterday. 

I'll make a demo if it happens again.

Interesting that it seems to affect several people.

If I find time I’m going to use screen recording software and compare it with my demo.

 

During the play I feel I have my crosshair right on them, and then in the demo I’m actually trailing after the enemy, as if I have a severely delayed tracking.

 

I tried cg_optimizedprediction 0 for a bit, but that caused some glitchy lag for me somehow. I notice it happens more when I play against people who live far from the server.

in beg2 (silent mod) hitboxes goes wild when a player crouches or prones,, also high ping players (200+) have weird skyboxes..

Happens to me all the time. If you see me type WTF in main chat, it's mostly because of this very thing. Crosshairs spot on a target and no shots register. Or I take 6 shots at someone not moving and only 3 register. That happened a few months ago, I saw Abbott was AFK in Spawn so I just aimed and shot 6 times, only 3 showed up in my stats.

 

And also the same, I get the first shots on someone, hit them 3-4 times and they turn and rapid fire, I'm dead so either my shots aren't hitting, or there is a secret script that removes the effect of my shots affecting their aim.

 

And for me, Jay 1, obv

This is one that I have struggled to understand for ages

I think changing mine to 500 made it worse

Can anyone provide a demo of this actually happening? I would really love to debug the bullet path and hitbox. I’ve seen many claims of this but never any proof of its existence. Without this any bug in the netcode that may be causing this cannot be fixed

on begginers 2? massive ping for you there no?

like i referred before my pc is a total potato. gpu is intel hd4000

for me its like this et wasnt made for 30v30 .. the antilag sucks ass in et. you benefit from this if u have 100 too 180 ping. things really go wonky with timenudge .-50 250 or above fps . the antilag cant keep up. 

 

thats why u get hit  when u shouldnt . becuz ur views diff than there's.like  u around a corner and bam u got hit by some guy u cant even see. i played on jay1 a bit now .. too me jay2 is better at hit registry for me.why becuz  u dont play against people  12k miles away and pings dont very from 20, too 400 .sum of the people playing on jay1  have just a horrible connection. yet there they are for half the day.

 

 

dont believe me turn off the antilag and see .lol i have tested this . u cant even play with pings that dont at lest come close to yours.

That’s still 50x better than what I had in 2005-2008, and back then internet was way worse.

This is a big part of it, IMO. Not just the more people but more people using smoke and gas which totally lags the server
