I have seen this briefly brought up here and there before, but can anyone tell me for sure, are the game mechanics set up to require a sniper to lead his shot against running enemies, or am I doing something wrong? It seems to be 50/50 when it comes down to it, some days I will lead the shot by about a foot in front of the enemy and get headshot after headshot, other days I do exactly the same procedure but all I get is a blue shield-flash and they run off unscathed. |

ish... its a bit hard to time based on distance the railgun shot DOES travel but its does so at extreme manners its hard to get a feel for it atm. So for all intents and purposes you're leading to help with the reaction time that by the time the gun fires its a red dot. |

****** server side hit detection amplified by subtle fluctuations in latency, nothing to see here, move along |

It may be because of traveling time but i think its far more likely to be a beta bug |

The blue shield flash appears to be a bug. I had it happen fairly regular last build and it seems to have continued in to this build.
Also, it is my impression that yes you need to lead your moving targets. How much so depends on range, speed, and the suit your target wears. However, as Burger Helper mentioned there are several factors making this difficult to pin down as the amount of lead needed, etc. changes from game to game. |

To scope or not to scope, that is the question |
