It could also be something as simple as lag. I assume hit checks are done server side, so if the mob moved in another direction and you fired, the server has a different opinion on where the mob is. Then again, there's also the Accuracy stat on the sniper that could cause stuff like that. I haven't looked at that in-depth yet. Will put it on my todo list!
most of my gameplay has been with a sniper rifle, i know lag causes misses but the shots im talking about are when the enemy is still, reloading / standing firing or even not in combat i aim up the same shot and get diffrent ressults, but i didnt consider the accuracy thing maybe that is it , but silly to make a game skill based with aiming then have the guns be off
I have that problem as well and so do others, I have better luck if I don't crouch.
Not just me then, placing 3 rounds into a motionless guys face, just to be told none even hit? gets very annoying.
what kind of rifle are you using? If its a bolt action then see http://forums.defiance.com/showthrea...e-Accuracy-Bug
if its a Semi Auto, well then you're just missing or server is lagging or both (which sometimes works out and you hit)
Im using a bolt action, i dont really like autos.
Then yea, see page. Did some testing of it about an hour ago.
The hitbox tends to be slightly smaller than the head. You gotta aim in the middle to register a hit. if you aim by the side, it doesnt register EVEN IF THE CROSSHAIR TURNS RED.
