this is very notorious, in particular when shooting 3 ppc, the registration is lower than 50%!!
i wonder why?? it's worse than it's ever been - for any weapon

Actually they to register just 5 seconds later or at least that is it was it feels for me as target... i am 5 seconds away from the impact point of the ppcs and then all the sudden i have an cored ct without any hit marker or enemy even near me.

Have to agree with the op. I haven't played in a months, but with all the new changes to ballistics and PPCs i thought i may give it a try again, as i love me some ballistics and ppcs. However after a couple hours playing i could tell ppcs still are not registering for me. Went back to guass and large lasers and my damage per round tripled compare to my ppc builds

My fave weapon is the ERppc in all mech games, and although it does low damage in this game. I still like it, but it does have damage registering issues. 45% of the time seems right to me. now sure on the exact number. I run my RVN-2X with 2 ERppcs! And I'm getting issues if it gets worse it will be unplayable....Save my fave weapon

I have also been experiencing some hits not registering. with PPC's, Guass and Lasers on 3L's, Cicada and even on the occasional Assault and Medium.
I think it occurs when you snap fire on things, (turn shoot turn, rapidly) or things are moving fast at leg humping range.

Hmm me too, I was thinking HSR wasn't working anymore, whatever something isn't right. PPCs in particular.

I have noticed ER PPC's not registering on even slow assault mech's during some matches where I'm positive the shot was dead on. I have around ~55% accuracy with ER PPC, and it was going slowly up... so probably I hit 6/10 shots on my spider 5D. Lately though, within the last couple of patches... I have noticed the ER PPC shot to seemingly impact the enemy mech, not fly past it, but do no damage, and have no red colored target indicator or change in armor/internal color.

I have actually noticed with this last patch ballistics feel like where they were before the HSR. Most of my shots are definitely hitting the target but not registering. I've so far used all the weapons HSR Ballistics should have fixed and seen the same weak hit registration.

I've noticed this as well. It's been discussed on the Google+ community a well, and that's been the consensus. Switch to LL's for better hit registration.

It feels the same to me. Maybe you guys are just noticing it now because the server has been busy these last few days and peoples pings are climbing way higher than they are used to?

Oh yeah just posted in another Topic. Had multiple alphas of 3 ERPPC not registering while brawling with a Highlander. Actually it happens quite often when I'm firing them at close range. Started to think HSR is bugged and lag shooting is returning

Most of the guys in Aus are having hit reg. drama since patch either ne reg or an awful long wait for it to come through 3-5 secs

Yes.
Might be that there is someone broken with the HSR.
I actually tried to do some lag shooting and suddenly my shots registered.
