So, hit registration is royally screwed up. Pretty much every match now I'm getting hit in the rear by people who are shooting me from the front; getting killed before my front armor ever gets depleted while I'm standing with my back to a wall.

It's worse with lasers (they often don't register damage at all) and PPCs. Both also sometimes fly through right through people.

Significantly diminishing my enjoyment of the game.

Kinda hard to accept full armor CT death in 2 seconds from just lasers in the after action report sometimes. No tell-tale Gauss or AC20 hits, just dead when peeking at the enemy a little.

I've noticed that my usual damage farming ability with lazors seems to have gone done since the Quirkening. Although my Ice Weasel certainly can't carry that big of an alpha, seeing enemy armor stay yellow after a salvo seems excessive.

I'm noticing some weirdness with faster mechs again.

It waxes and wanes for me. Like my love of kiwi fruit.

Ok this is getting ******* silly now. Just now in Mordor, I got alphaed from the front by a SRM Stalker and died instantly with full frontal armor, even though it was my rear that had no armor. As far as I know, Awesome chassis does not show any rear CT hitbox from the front.

WTF PGI.

Yup. Hitreg is pretty trash.
Ive found im leading fast targets again and slower stuff HSR seems to work (somewhat) on.

Its all the special events and the trash network.

Every weekend with these events... trash hitreg. My ping goes from 280ms to 330ms.
Cant hit sh!t.

Would enjoy a weekend with the unit where we all don't ragequit after 2hrs out of frustration.

Sometimes it does. I've encountered it a few times with my Awesomes, but haven't been able to reproduce it consistently.

My BlackJack sufferes from that'snotwhereithitme-itis occasionally too.

Had this happen on Tourmaline for the first time today. Was in an Ice Ferret, had a little bit of yellow-orange damage, but overall was good (think I was 85% or something).

Ran around the corner, fired my medium lasers, and GONE! What the hell just happened?! My rear torso was just gone, except, nobody was behind me except for a wall (gg wall <o).

I didn't even see a shot, nor heard an impact. My mech basically acted like it had sudden cardiac arrest and just decided to die, like the enemy had a button called, "Kill Aresye Instantly," and they pressed it.

Add in some really weird HSR stuff, lasers barely registering, and this weekend is chalking up to being one of the worst weekends I've experienced yet, and that's saying something!

those crystals are big, pointy and sharp, running 70kph backwards into them is not healthy XD

but now, sunday EU primetime seems to increase the problem.
