Several instances throughout different games, I have fired on other players (usually with the sniper rifle) and witnessed a visible hit, seeing the shields rise up around the area that I shot the player, yet received no hit indicator and no damage was done. I spoke with a few other players and they confirmed similar experiences. |

Yeah, this is a super annoying issue. I've found that it happens most often with the sniper rifle as well. Often several times in a row against the same target. |

To the snipers, is it the same with all of the sniper rifles? I only ask because I watch "gem cutter" going 50/0 and I can't imagine if half of his shots are bugged what his real score will be.
And I agree, very annoying bug |

+1. He is very good shooter. To the OP i reported this issue earlier. Not just with sniper rifles, even with tank turrets. |

As far as I am aware the visible hit indication is generated by the client and the actual hit detection and damage calculation is done by the server. If the client and server are not totally in sync then you will see this sort of thing.
Another possibility is that the shield flash is a yes/no thing; you either hit or you don't. The damage calculation is affected by range and falloff. It is entirely possible to be so far into your weapon's falloff range that you do absolutely negligible damage from a hit.
There is a known problem with a client-side memory leak leading to shot notifications from client to server being significantly delayed; I'd imagine that the server would have to ignore notifications of shots that arrive too long after the shot was taken, because applying them at that point wouldn't make any sense.
So, which of the following are we dealing with here? Client lag, server lag, network latency, desync, falloff or weapon spread? Even if we can't say for sure, can we rule any of them out? |

nothing like watching a shotgun round go into a douvall user's face and have it do nothing. |

Yea, we all get it. it's just some games are better than others. Not sure the actual cause but I believe it is a miscalculation in the partial damage hit. |

Yea, I've been getting this a lot lately too. It seems to be with both of my rifles and I don't think it's lag. I have been getting really really bad lag the last week or so, but I had a guy go AFK for a few moments and I still couldn't register a hit on him as he stood there. |
