Now Im absolutely sure they fixed hit detection for the masses, that would be all the people running around with ARs. Ive noticed they fixed it for you. Everything so far is catered to you.
However, did they fix it for sniping? If so, what is that shield flicker I get sometimes when firing at someone at they take no damage? What about when this happens 3 shots in a row? How about the other night I had to not aim at someone to hit them. Reticule was orange, nothing, I moved slightly to the right, reticule was blue, fired he died. That isn't fixing hit detection. The guy was standing still for both shots btw. I didn't know they added wind adjustment all of a sudden, shouldn't that have been in patch notes?
Also, I don't know if you call it hit detection, or a clipping problem, but alot of snipers have found little spots next to rocks where they can't be hit. You can see their head, fire, nothing. One guy was standing completely on top of the rock crouched, fired 3 times at a stationary target, nothing, shield flickers.
Which skill is it to make my shield deflect bullets? Where are the magic bullets that shoot through terrain? Everyone says hit detection is fixed but I don't see it. I know I know, sniping is useless and doesn't matter, we're worthless, all we do is camp in our spawn point yada yada. Looking for actual decent responses from other snipers who have these problems, have a way around them, or can tell me where to find the magic bullets in the Marketplace. |

Im not angry, I like that anytime someone had a different opinion than "ARS SHOULD RULE ALL, BOW TO MY WALL OF BULLETS" you're angry. I do just fine sniping, never negative, usually 1 maybe 2 deaths a game. Usually in double digits for kills, so no Im not angry. I simply noticed something about hit detection, and asked other people what they thought. I do believe I said I wanted other snipers input, not all the non aiming spray and pray AR users.
And as for dumbing the game down, if they dumb the game down anymore it won't be a game, there is no thought required or skill required for this game. Get a few people together, run in group, spray walls of bullets at people, win. That isn't thought, it isn't tactical, it's blob warfare.
Once again people seem to forget that snipers should be feared on a battlefield. You don't hear big stories about the ****** with an M16. You hear stories about the sniper that took out a whole squad (that's 14 people in RL) by himself from his perch.
Guess that makes the sniper non skilled and chicken? I apologize some people want to do more than run around with an AR all the time. Last I checked this game was supposed to have options, every option but AR gets nerfed to the ground, from what Ive seen, or at least whined about.
So keep talking **** if you'd like, somewhere in all these posts I might can get a few decent answers from some people who actuallly aim at stuff, and realize that accuracy is a part of shooting. |

I don't have problems 90% of the time. It's just I notice it more when I do have that magical shield reflection thing go off. Me and my friend always mention it to each other when it happens which doesn't help the situation. If I have a guy on a rock I can't hit I usually reposition and kill him. So my gripe isn't something that happens all the time. I just notice it when it does happen. And it seems to happen back to back. Ill kill 3 people, then Ill get someone I put 4 rounds into, shield reacts but he takes no damage, then another sniper one shots him. That's when it pisses me off, because I know I hit him. As far as proving Im useful, I don't really care if anyone thinks snipers are useful or not. Since they are in the game they should be as reliable as every other class when it comes to firing, and with stuff like this they aren't. Also, I can't help the guy hiding in the hills going 20/1 is smarter than the ****** on the ground with the AR, that's not my fault. I didn't tell you to run around in the killzone did I. |
