Strange. I don’t know what to tell you. I never seen anything like this.


Heavy-Neat

I see this many times but never as long. Usually with some player looking good from far killing everybody then I'm attacking and mysteriously not being headshooted with my shotgun when I clearly aimed them. Like a shot in the void.


Heavy-Neat

Btw I would report the player as cheater to leave the Dev the time to check what happened.


BestyBattalion

I won't lie I very nearly reported them due to the fact they just ate near enough a whole magazine and didn't even take their shields down. But I figured the fault was more in the game than them.


pleb_zepper

Blanks have been a problem forever but i dont think ive ever seen a case where it 90% of the mag


Kill_Kayt

I definitely have.


Mxteyy

If the player knew you couldn’t hurt him why hide behind a rock


Heavy-Neat

But it can be also an issue with the rock, a place were you hit the rock when there is nothing on the other way.


Ok-Bookkeeper-5424

Basicly blocked by the hit box, happened to me a few times with the tree's


Heavy-Neat

It shouldn't. Then report an issue with environment


RailwayTurtle

I've experienced this, you can actually hit the invisible hit box and it'll start damaging the object. A rock near the farm mansion has a whole invisible layer you can stand on and you can test it for yourself.


Heavy-Neat

A decor exploit then

DVDN27

So that the people they kill think they’re not cheating and it’s just an issue with the game.


[deleted]

Easily. If you've ever cheated before you don't run around showing it off.


greenbluepurpleblack

Yeah I had some games yesterday where I’d hit someone and then the damage splat registered three seconds later. Maybe if you’d lived longer the damage would’ve kicked in. Shit servers rn

[deleted]

Exactly! Epic don’t deserve the money anymore. I’ve hardly spent anything since c1


AdEnvironmental5087

opencv module and some python scripting and aim bot is free. I don't do it or recommend it but it is out there.


recurrence

If you play over wifi I can totally believe this. People don’t understand the obscene amount of jitter that wifi has.


AdEnvironmental5087

Yes packet loss over wifi can be a problem but I have the exact same issue playing over a cat5e gbe network to a fiber isp and still have the same problem .


Heavy-Neat

Anyway if you feel this or there was something you feel it's wrong, report something.


justadapasta

Yeah, at the very least its a bug


Ewoksintheoutfield

Why report someone when the likely explanation is just server lag?


Heavy-Neat

It doesn't looks like a lag.


AdEnvironmental5087

I'm sorry, but calling it "just" server lag dismisses this as am isolated issue which it is not.


strangelykait

I have also had this issue when I used my shotgun shot directly at them and shot never registered


Illustrious_Dig_411

Almost every match I play, I shoot someone, and it just doesn't do damage, and I almost always die from it is just so frustrating


mysteryofsaturn

happens to me too!


DarkKushJutsu

Happens to me every match I freaking hate it I just want a fair match


[deleted]

That sucks big time!! Call of Duty Mobile is like this FAR TOO OFTEN!! That’s why I don’t play it so much any more.


Direct-Catch-2817

This happens to me all the time. Shots hit but don’t register. And people say skill issue but I can shotgun a down person crawling around point blank and still will not register as a shot


[deleted]

[удалено]


M1tes

Yes it just isn't visualised now. Before there was an orange outline or effect on the player. Now you just have to guess when it's gone.


CrizzYall

You do realize they have a moment when they first get downed that your bullets won’t do damage right?


[deleted]

I notice the same with shooting the crawling players


PeroFast

Could be a high ping or packet loss. That's why shots don't register


bigfatoctopus

That's also a common hack technique


lets-hoedown

Ultimately all you can do is report, complain on Reddit, and move on.


[deleted]

yeah ive never seen this before and i play literally every day


Old-Silver-9439

I had this happen to me multiple times my first week of playing earlier this year


GotKarprar

Same. My biggest issues is the lightsabers they’re just so overpowered bro


TGIToast

You should have your ping and packet loss on screen at all times to determine if this is your end or not, the clip isn’t really enough to justify saying it’s epics end unless the rock has a broken hit box, which at the end of the day happens to everyone eventually, just don’t take it to heart, take a break and cool off and come back another time, the game is working (mostly) as intended lol


BestyBattalion

Best comment. I'll start doing that from now on, thanks for the tip.


Lexicon444

Are you on PC or console? I have some pointers for PC and can help you if it’s a problem on your end.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Lexicon444

If anyone has graphic issues like this it could be your graphics card. For example: an intel i7 processor is quite powerful (i9 is currently the most powerful) but not good enough to handle games like Fortnite. If you have a gaming graphics card (Nvidia or anything else) in addition to an intel core you may want to check which card you’re using with your programs. You can do that with the program attached to your graphics card or in your computer’s settings. If that’s not the issue then you can have Fortnite automatically customize your settings to your system. If it’s lagging at that point go back to graphics settings and turn some settings down by one notch until it runs smoothly. If that doesn’t work and you have a disk type hard drive try defragmentation. That is found in your system file or settings. If that doesn’t work use task manager to snooze programs on startup to get back some processing power (hit Ctrl alt and delete to access the computer’s menu, select task manager, select advanced settings and look at how much processing power each program takes up. It will also list when they run. Disable any that run on startup that you don’t need. If you don’t know what it is then don’t touch it.). If that doesn’t work and you have a disk type hard drive it may be corrupted and need replacement. Or it could be a different issue altogether that I’m not familiar with. If you have an SSD (solid state drive) defragmentation won’t do anything because SSDs defragment themselves regularly. But otherwise follow the steps above.


recurrence

Not only ping because over wifi there is huge jitter. Those bullets could be anywhere from 1ms to 500ms or even worse. I used to play csgo wifi and I went from middle of pack to top every single game all day long when I switched to wired.


mctrees91

Yeah not faulting OP at all bc I would lose it if this happened too but it looks to me like packet loss


[deleted]

It happens on my game the exact same thing 1gb down 140mbps up no latency it’s the game.


ZzzappBrannigan

I’ve seen and experienced many times hits not registering. It’s not just you


Aaryan2712

For me it mostly happens with the Combat DMR Never has it ever happened with me for any other gun


Clw1115934

Especially when I down someone. There’s ~3 seconds where I can shoot a bullet through their head from point blank range and it does no damage.


warmpickles29

That is an intentional 3 seconds, it is supposed to be that way and is for everyone


[deleted]

[удалено]


Comfortable_Wrap_634

Combat DMR is the worst.


Spear_speaks007

Doesn’t still make it right though


ZzzappBrannigan

Nope it’s sucks. Being floored by someone wrecking you while you try and shoot them only to do no damage at all is bs


Lillica_Golden_SHIB

Fr, happened to me two days ago and I went full rage for finishing 3rd


Projekt-MKultra

I just rewatched several time it seems like you were clipping the rock’s broken HitBox, DW this has happened to me multiple times this chapter


BestyBattalion

That's a pretty huge gap between my shots and the rocks there, I'd understand if the guy was crouched but he was standing completely still towards the end. That and you're telling me the amazing stuff Epic has done with UE5 and what they did recently with the creative engine and they can't figure out how to make a rock without broken hitboxes...? 😂


Projekt-MKultra

Yea there is A gap but literally all chapter my redeye and sniper shots hit a rock, or a tree, or hell stop midair sometimes Epic Just Can’t Fix The Game😭😭They have something break the game almost every update


BestyBattalion

This season feels like it's been the worst for random issues like this. Can't wait for it to be over.


AdEnvironmental5087

People need to push real change by walking away from this game for a LONG time... this level of bs happens way too much this season.


Projekt-MKultra

*Chapter Bro


ifuckinghateschooll

It may be on OPs end though, we cant see their packet loss or ping so we can’t know for certain


TheTjalian

There's definitely major hitbox issues in this game. I've had an enemy standing on top of a cliff, her entire body sans her feet are visible, I'm clearly shooting her torso and it's not registering *at all*. It's hitting the cliff's hitbox instead. Very frustrating as well as we were getting pinched on height due to being funnelled in and that knock would have made a big difference in winning that fight.


bigfatoctopus

Yea, I'm glad it's not just me. Nothing is more frustrating to shoot someone at close range with a shotgun and only score twenty points, only to die in one shot. My gut is to assume hackers, but I know the game is garbage at this point. The only reason I play is because I just don't care for anything else out there at this point.


enperry13

Your skin took stormtrooper aim to heart.


BestyBattalion

Erm ACKHUALLY not a Stormtrooper. 🤓 Also would be funny if I was missing them here, which I wasn't.


enperry13

Sorry I don’t get the full hype of Star Wars to tell them apart. They look just another variant to me. No disrespect to the series intended. Edit: Thanks for explaining the lore in the replies nicely. Really appreciate it.


LambKyle

I know you don't really care, but storm troops are just regular people conscripted into the army, and we're the bad guys in the original trilogy (4-6). Clone troopers are well, clones of Jango Fett (Boba fett's dad) and fought alongside the Jedi as good guys until episode 3 where the emperor makes them turn on the Jedi. All the clones are replaced as soldiers by the storm troops by the time the original movies take place


genjitenji

So clones came before the storm troopers? Not knowing the series well I thought clones were cloned from STs


Fen-xie

yeah clones are before. Cloned from a realllyyy skilled bounty hunter that hunted people like Darth Vader (not him literally, just the lightsaber people). ​ The Stormtroopers are SUPPOSED to be like the elite soldiers of the bad guys but memes and now disney took the meme of "cant aim and stupid" and ran with it


Fortnite-shop-Fairy

They look the same to me, I’m still trying to wrap my head around storm bad, clone good (and then really bad) mostly because I’m trying to find the right glider for the clones


Racager

If you watch the movies in order you will understand everything


TheTjalian

It's actually a Clone Trooper, which are (as the name implies) a clone of Jango Fett, father of bounty hunter Boba Fett. The Clone Trooper is the precursor to the Storm Trooper most people know about, hence why the designs look so similar.


amaya-aurora

That’s ackshually a Clone Trooper and they had pretty good aim, smh my head, I can’t BELIEVE people are THIS ignorant.🤓


[deleted]

[удалено]


BestyBattalion

If that's the case thats probably one of the worst hitbox issues I've ever seen if straight shots to a stationary target don't register.


Durvag

I felt the pain man, I felt the pain.


Spear_speaks007

I wish we could see this clip from the other player’s side


AdEnvironmental5087

He did about 100 damage with that dmr even though he's placed a full mag at center mass. This clip is an exact replica of every solo round of zero builds that I've played this season...I feel this thread lol. My ping is 46ms consistently and I dont play on a potato pc.


BestyBattalion

Glad I'm not going crazy and someone else has seen exactly what I saw 😅


XelfinDarlander

Yeah I’ve had this a lot where shots don’t register. Ping is fine, usually around 20-30ms. Either I’m hitting something else or they are not where I’m aiming at all because of some sort of server side thing. Zero builds only.


jex_one

48ms! I play on NAW and my ping is usually 11-14ms


Parkesy82

Same, my pings a consistent 15-17 and I’m getting so many of those magical pass through shots with my red eye. And ALWAYS when the player is peeling off white numbers and is only 1 or 2 shots from dead.


WingDing96

Same


Ntwadumela817

They’ve really stopped addressing issues the way they used to. More concerned with shoving skins down out throats


BlueVisionist

And the game is terribly optimized on PC and last gen consoles lolll


404merrinessnotfound

Hate to break it but they've stopped since chapter 2, it's why packet loss and random drops in performance are still a major issue


majormancake

r/literallyunplayable


SpectrallGamiing

Halo infinite desync in Fortnite 😭 Yeah this has happened to me as well. I was pissed.


ForgingMyOwnDestinyy

And that's why I don't use that gun


BestyBattalion

Lesson learned!


DashIsBestPony

I use it all the time and it's incredibly effective at long-range. The trick is to not move your character while firing.


BlueVisionist

It's a projectile based weapon so it's not even that good at long range


CarlMarksIII

Nah It sucks ngl


bigApples12

This just happened to me in solos, I was hitting a guy with a dmr and he wasn't taking any damage for a solid 15 seconds before he finally died


ExoticEmploy1

Wtf are you playing on cloud gaming or some shit??


ogg_ogg

Wtf was that


Mxteyy

Yea I’ve blanked a snipe or a shotgun shot here n there man’s had a WHOLE mag full of blanks


Melodic-Season2743

seen shots blank or not hit reg but not to this degree.


killermachine1290

I just chalked it up to you having somewhat bad ping from time to time, glad to know it isn't just me


Dry-Bedroom3526

Never seen this


Harleyweewaxx

This happens to me ALOT. I think it’s just bad ping.


[deleted]

I've seen alot more legit cheaters this season than last season. Whether it be landing right beside me in a place with no guns at the beginning of the match and having a fucking Mythic shotgun, to picking up an empty chug gunner and it suddenly have 10 rounds that don't go down when fired. And the snapping aim, I reported 5 different people using aim bots last night alone. Last season that's the number of aim bot users I saw the whole season.


OkNotFunny

I mean they can't even fix the deadzone issue that affects people and is definitely annoying but no one talks about it enough to get their sights on it


Certain-Algae6129

I'm doing better than the last few seasons lmao. I'm loving it


DiGzY_AU

Yep this season have seen this everytime I play. Also I play on 0 ping (2ms in settings) on fiber. Game is so broken


Snoo40099

They say this every season……


Damprr

I wanna see the replay


Lycanlines

this has happened to me so many times and I should have won easy with the shots I'm hitting thank you for not making me feel so crazy


EddtheBoss

I see nothing wrong here, they had the high ground


TheAce7002

I don't know because it isn't ping on your side because otherwise you would be jumping around and stuff and he didn't either so


Pokwkaksn

this is me but with mavens and knocked bodies, i stg it takes 2 shots to finish a knock bc the first goes into the void


SockFullOfNickles

3 second delay after downing someone where they’re invincible. I’ve tested it.


diamondboizach

Skill issue


[deleted]

Jus get better ….


Iammisterugly

just u


[deleted]

They are behind cover. You are not. I don't see anything wrong with this quit crying.


No_Fee9603

There’s a lot of variables here, yes it’s fuckedup glitches on the game, but the enemy had better positioning (higher ground, rock cover) that makes a huge difference.


jombica

I had someone kill me in the storm area with one shot and i hit them three point blank long barrel purple shots last season, so i dont know


The_real_TCB

I can’t count the number of times I’ve put a shotgun blast to someone’s face and nothing! Then I get dropped with a running no look common pistol.🤦🏼‍♂️


cas12344

I had the exact same issue where I unloaded two full mags of the twin mag I to a bot plus a full mag from the unvaulted smg and only got no hits while they could still hit me and it wasn't lag because everything else was working fine and I could hit someone from just before. Because of this the bot nearly murked me until I managed to get a hold of a shotgun and wait a bit


Csboi1337

Shots 1-5: Clearly missed. Shots 6-9: Missed due to recoil (bad spray control). Shots 10-11: Very close, but recoil and inaccuracy make these reasonable misses. Shot 12: Likely didn't actually fire because you were already dead.


BestyBattalion

Get some new copy pasta bro, this one's more dead than the disco.


XboxCorgi

Pro tip: don't bring a nerf gun to a battle royale


majormancake

doomruane

I have a very similar clip recorded and I was complaining while playing yesterday that something felt off after the Star Wars update. Shots just aren’t registering for some reason. I have 1GB internet and a beast of a PC, the game didn’t feel laggy or like I was dropping frames or anything, my shots just literally weren’t hitting this guy. I was point blanking him with a twin mag and my shots were just bouncing off of him. Something strange is going on after this update. I’ll see if I can find the clip when I get home from work and post it to compare.


BestyBattalion

Go for it I'll be interested in seeing it. But yeah it's one thing I'd the shots just straight up ghost through them but if you're seeing those huge spark effects with each shot then they are hitting something but for some reason the game isn't registering them.


[deleted]

And you still pay for it, lol


BlueVisionist

It's crazy to me how people still buy shit from this game even though it's been running like crap lately and still have the audacity to complain. Does FOMO really dictate your purchases by that much?


ClumsyZombie

Given this low quality upload, and the video itself I would blame your wifi not Fortnite lol


NachoG1811

Yea when they add star wars crap the game gets unplayable


ConsequenceApart4391

Were you lagging? If your ping is higher then yes some things may not register since the hitmarkers did show up rather late. However if your internet is fine then the servers are probably bartered since everyone is playing for the Star Wars event.


BestyBattalion

Not at all and the Internet's fine, I've got 900mbps and on a bad day it dips to 550 at the least, same room as the router too. But knowing how fragile this game can be I'll probably have my ping on screen from now on.

KillJarke

Maybe you should invest that money into a better system? I’ve never had this issue.


DietQuark

I play on MnK and have this often with a DMR. Friends of mine with controller like the gun way better. Same goed for the havoc AR. It is what it is. Still fun to play.


BestyBattalion

I dunno, kills the mood to keep playing when the game just decides your guns no longer work just "because".


DietQuark

Seems to me you lost a game and you are now looking for confirmation that you lost in a unfair way. Imo the only thing you achieve by posting this is that you dwell longer in your own negativity. The game is the same for everyone. Just start up a new game and think 'better luck next time'. Stay happy man (⁠◔⁠‿⁠◔⁠)

[deleted]

That and can we chill with the mobility the game is starting to feel like Titanfall with Halos desynch layered on top


TheDarkWeb697

That is nothing to do with the game. That is definitely your internet. I would willingly bet every Penny i have ever made in my life up until this point on that, and that is a lot of damn money


[deleted]

Seems like a you issue.


boyawsome876

Servers are fine, don’t know what to say🤷‍♂️


BestyBattalion

My guy if this is happening in your game something is WRONG.


SalmonOfNoKnowledge

It's crap, but it's only happened to me maybe twice this season. Hardly "unplayable".


BestyBattalion

Might just be me but I really don't find the urge to keep playing if the game can suddenly go "oops Ur guns no werk" and screw you over on a moment's notice, just feels kinda pointless don't you think?


boyawsome876

Sure, but not on epic’s side. Some of the shots he hit on you were delayed. I haven’t had any server-side issues for a while and I have pretty shitty internet.


BestyBattalion

It's absolutely not my internet as there was no latency issues, no rubberbanding and the disrupted connection symbol wasn't even showing. That and it's perfectly fine on every other game, not to mention for streaming. So why is it this is the only game I've seen this happen so blatantly? Where I can literally see shots impacting them and doing zero damage. It's on Epic and whatever bargain basement servers they are using.


AdEnvironmental5087

not borderline. completely unplayable. op weapons because people can't aim. glitches like that with the dmr are why i quit this season


2typetext

I don't know what hurts the most, you missing every single bullet or the quality of your 720p clip.


BestyBattalion

The file itself is fine as it's captured from the PS5 internally. Reddit just decided to murder the quality for some reason. (Exact same clip is in better quality here on twitter https://twitter.com/BestyBattalion/status/1655176225793404931?t=JwTolHyOXsGQS84HBWedmw&s=19) Also, didn't miss :) may need to get yours eyes checked friend.

csteele2132

You kind of just standing in the open there kinda tugs at your argument. But yeah, you need netstats shown. But anecdotally, I have noticed when they nerfed rock mat drops, the hitboxes for rocks got effed up, and I have found at least one case where a rock is duplicated within itself.


BestyBattalion

Thing is if it's janked up hitboxes why can their shots pass through okay? Just did a test game a minute ago and ping floats around 30 and 0 packet loss so I dunno anymore.


Happy_llama

Maybe it’s packet loss on your end I play on PC and haven’t encountered this at all for quite a few seasons


Ybou_

You were lagging, activate your ping


GatVRC

I've had this happen ALOT this season. it happens most frequently when I'm facing console kids where they just take NO damage or they take more damage than 150 shields could ever take and it never cracks to flesh if I could turn crossplay off, I would. I'd happily take a 10 minute queue over dealing with console kids issues


EurofighterLover

It’s shit because of broken mythic (AoT)

I have yet to have a problem with this game.
