I have noticed that occasionally charged shots from the Scrambler Rifle are not registering. Tested against a tank, charged fully and shot, no hit marker, did a few single shots after and got hit markers every time. Did an almost fully charged shot and still no hit marker, blasted a few quick shots after and git hit markers for every shot.
Really makes this gun under perform. |

Any precision weapon in this game is a joke. I've been scramblin and find the same thing, as well as shots not registering damage on a hit. Makes me want to just use a MD or AR as they are super easy to use and don't suffer from poor hit detection. |

And it's not aim. I've literally shot two heavies in the head without reloading with a scrambler pistol, but I can barely hit people with the Scrambler Rifle despite it's better zoom, reflex sight and more Ammo capacity.
Happens with the Plasma Cannon too. I've hit people directly and they don't even get affected. Or sometimes no splash damage. Heck, it won't even fire occasionally. Just ridiculous. |

You don't happen to have any video showing you doing this testing? How often does this happen? If it happens in a match, does it consistently happen for the entire match, or is it just intermittent during the course of a match?
More details are always awesome.

I've encountered the same recently with grenades... |

Naw, ain't got no footage. It tends to happen about 1/3 of the time I use it. I occasionally get a game where it don't occur.
It tends to not register when a lot of things are occurring on screen. Or occasionally the charged shot will register after a second or two, I've killed people after they've killed me like this. Also, usually fully charged shots are the ones that don't register, half and quarter charged shots tend to hit. Also quick tap shots hit fine. |

I've had this happen before too, I just assumed it was because I was a terrible shot, but I don't miss nearly as much if I'm feathering the trigger than I do with charged shots. |

I had thought it was just latency with the charged shot. Someone had said it moves slower and so I just went with that.
Now, if a Dev says otherwise, there are some serious hit detection issues going on with the charged shot.
@OP did you test on a stationary or moving target? |

Shot at a tank that was coming towards me and was then backing up. About 40M away. Though I shot right in the middle of the front plate, which is several feet large.
No way I could miss that. Charged shots did not register but all other shots did. |

Blue hit marker is not specific to the scrambler rifle in my experience.
There was a time, about the first 1-2 weeks of uprising where the charge shots did damage. Since then I have only ever had 1 charge shot hit anyone and do damage.
In my recent experience, the hit detection on my scrambler rifle and any single shot scrambler I've used, has been so bad I just don't use them anymore since I can't rely on them. |

Yer gave up on the charged shot for a while but now its just nice for stationary targets like when theyyre hacking ect. Its like the charged shot moves through the air slower (or its coz I'm an aussie and live in lag city) but that said it still misses sometimes at point blank and u can see the streak from the bullets stop where the targets shields start. But no hit. |

Yep charge shot seems to move much slower. I use it for close-quarters sniping after I sneak up on someone and theyre stationary otherwise I can rarely ever get the hit. |
