What I noticed after this last patch that the three LB10X's on my Illy often didn't show the red damage confirmation but still showed damage done on the enemy's readout where expected the shots would land.
Did this more often if the shots are closer together as well as close quarters, anyone else experienced this?

As is the "undercarriage cheat" as I call it, when a 30 ton mech can camp under your ass when it should be sat upon and knocked down, not to mention that El Speedo can ram into anything at 150KPH without any consequences.

Yeah nerf lights... Like they aren't one shot enough

My hit detection has actually been very good in the last couple of patch, SRM's included.

That means if I group fire say 2x ppc + 2x AC5, one of those components, maybe two, might not be doing damage.

Thank God.

Surprisingly my hit registration was way better before HSR than it is now. I'm talking night and day. Beforehand I always hit what I shot. I did have to lag shoot light mechs--but I knew I had to lag shoot them so I knew where to aim.

Now I don't know if I have to lag shoot or not. Sometimes due to desynch I would, others I wouldn't.

So my hit registration has gone way down.

I agree with this. I always felt far more consistently accurate before HSR. HSR certainly does not work right, and its introduced its own host of buggy gameplay behavior (phantom damage, client not showing or registering effects attacks, dying after making it to solid cover, etc).

It is beyond infuriating when your client shows you a red damage splash from crosshairs, but you do no damage...when you clearly get a solid shot on an enemy mech, but there is no crosshair confirmation at all, and again no damage taken.

Numbers wise I cant give the exact percent but easily 20+ % is where I'm at for these bugs.

HSR is a penalty for those who have good ping. It really benefit those with average to slower pings much more than those with good pings. I average 50 and below and see all kinds of wonky things with the system as implemented that is absolute BS.

We can all be kind happy it is like this. Already if you talk out in the open you die in seconds. Just think if you increased this by 50% . We would end up with more lrm and sniping light mechs.

FIX THE LIGHT MECH HITBOX! Nothing more frustrating than being out tanked by a spider while in an assault. They just stand their in front of you and seriously out tank you. Its not even a netcode issue. Is it pointless making these threads? Will they ever be fixed?

Why cant you guys work on polish AND CW? Its been 3 years dont you guys have enough money to hire more staff? Or mentors to teach you how to fix these things in a small amount of time?

You do realize that that is an issue with the spider that is experienced by every class?

I slaughter Spiders in my 733C using dual Ultra 5s. The trick is leading them just right and having multiple chances over time to do damage. Some won't count... but some will. It only takes three hits from them both to blow a leg off...
Proof:



It still is no excuse for the crap hit registration. Hits don't register equally on lights and assaults in my experience if you know how to aim.

>6 SRM-6s with artmeis only did yellow damage to my Atlas

That is quite sad...and because of the heat, he didnt get a second shot off.

Well Blastman, I'm seeing the hit detection shenanigans this patch. AC20s in particular aren't registering even though I clearly see shells exploding on the mech.

[Monkey Lover]

Im running up the hill I die because im hit in the back somehow. Hit reg needs a lot of work.
