Bad hit/event registration

Is it just me or am I the only one trying to fire a rocket last minute and the sound plays and all but the rocket just does not spawn? 80 ms ping. Not only this, but grenades that are not thrown, melee hits that sound but do not register, getting killed through walls, headshots that do not register, getting back smacked through the front, hydra rockets hitting the wasp even though they are miles away, rockets killing me and not my enemy, hammer hit radius, and I could go on and on, seems like a syncing issue. I’ve played 500 matches and can tell this is a real problem. I know there has to be some sort of interpolation to make up for different latencies, and expect this to happen, but sometimes it seems like a bad joke. Am I the only one suffering this kind of stuff? Don’t know if I should feel good because this is a “beta”

I’ve had plenty of those same experiences. 2 of the most blatant for me are:
Gravity hammer radius: I’m still not sure what the sweet spot for that thing is. It always seems different I’m assuming because of connection issues.
Commando: I’ve chalked up A LOT of missed kills with this weapon to the excessive bloom, but I’m starting to think it’s poor hit registration…

I’ve also been on the ‘fortunate’ end for some of these. I’ve definitely had enemies melee me while I was fighting another target, heard the melee, but never took the damage…

It happened to me too. Shots fail to show up or hit.

I’ve been on the other side too, I guess.

BTW Just found out there is a huge vehicle desync thread going on on Twitter. What were they doing these 5/6 years? All of these problems were sort of solved on past games.

I heard about that, but I guess I really haven’t witnessed or been affected by it yet…unless that’s what’s causing enemy Spartans to just bounce off my hood instead of splattering :laughing:

rockets killing you and not the enemy happens everytime, i can hit them, die, and the mf has his shields popped!!!

I have hit registration problems all the time. My connection is 850/20 with latency of 20ms - 50ms. Only my XB1X is using the connection. The problem is really frustrating because I cannot increase my rank when I am getting killed so often due to bad hit registration.
