I'm sure this will get contested, but from personal experience I still get blasted by PPCs from near point blank range. /shrug
you do because people have twitchy trigger fingers but likely they are doing no damage under 90m as intended.
If you can show that they are in fact, doing damage (perhaps video of such) and you're not mistakenly assuming damage you're taking from something else, is PPC....you should report it as a bug. Because PGI made it clear, they aren't supposed to do damage.
Personally, I've shot friendlies at PB range, enemies at PB (twitchy trigger finger occasionally) and noticeable done 0% damage. On occasion I've seen what I think is paint scraping (i.e. 1% and yellow on the paperdoll) but never anything significant or capable of killing or even seriously weathering the target.
