I ran into an issue yesterday while counter-sniping in multiple matches. I would pick out an opposing sniper, who was standing atop a hill, outlining himself and making an easy target. When shot, a blue shield-like wave would pop up on the character, looking like my shot hit something, but it would do no damage. Full magazines from the teir 2 sniper rifle had no effect.
I thought that perhaps there was a glitch, or that he could not see or shoot at me, either. Unfortunately, every time, that targeted sniper would gun me down, apparently without any damage from my shots.
Is it a technical glitch, or are they hiding outside of the bounds and being guarded somehow? |

It's the hit detection mechanic.
Not working well, but its better then it was in the first build lol |

Same for me.... counter sniping and doing OK, when I hit a guy and get a shield flash, but no apparent damage to the player. I then shoot at someone *further* away, and get a kill (thereby figuring out that the original sniper was not out of range).
If there is a shield flash, there really should be damage done to the target, no? |

Same as I said above, its the hit detection. You know it is when the shield flashes, usually you won't see it flash. |
