Polarthief Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 Sometimes, Snipers and Bows will just flat out miss their target, despite me CLEARLY seeing they getting hit by the bullet/arrow, and no this isn't because of latency as I've tested it in a solo game. This mostly happens at point blank and short ranges, but I've had it happen at medium and long ranges as well. It's really, really irritating to line up a perfect headshot just for the bullet to phase through my target :( From what I've tested so far, this only applies to Dread and Snipetron Vandal, but I'm assuming it also affects the Paris, Paris Prime, Snipetron Classic, and other snipers (oh man, if this bug affects the Lanka DX) (Copy/pasted from my thread on the Weapons Feedback forum thread [which I deleted] because it belongs here and I derped) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PsychedelicSnake Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 The length of the barrel and bow comes into play. Get too close, it clips through the target and the shot does nothing. You have to be at least a metre away from what I have noticed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Notso Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 Would you be able to record a video of it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to be at least a metre away from what I have noticed. I said at short ranges too (in addition to the obvious point blank, but that's intended due to clipping), but I've had this happen at very long ranges as well (50+ Meters) Would you be able to record a video of it? Probably not as it would drop FPS like nuts :/ I could try to take a couple screenshots next chance I get (aiming at enemy, post-fire at enemy, going over to enemy corpse and showing the arrow that isn't in his body/bullet hole in the wall that should be on his body) Edited July 19, 2013 by Polarthief Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Polarthief Posted July 20, 2013 Author Share Posted July 20, 2013 (edited) Alright, I think I know what the bug is. Vauban's Bastille seems to be causing it when I shoot an enemy inside of it while I'm inside too. I took a few screenshots but I don't know how helpful they'd be (just shows me aiming, then the recoil of my gun and them not taking any damage, nor even showing their health bar up top) Edit: Confirmed that Bastille is affecting these weapons in a negative way.
