So I have been noticing that on console it takes less shots to kill someone than it does on PC (Same Settings Same Input). PC seems to have an issue with hit registration. I can consistently 4 burst with a BR on console and on PC I can’t even count the number of shots to be honest, it’s horribly inconsistent. This is comparing PC and XBOX… not my skill or what ever. On PC the hits are simply not registering how they should. Is anyone else on PC experiencing this issue?
~Edited~ I want people to be focused on the main issue…

Can’t say, since I don’t play on Xbox to compare, but I have never one hit anyone with a melee, except for back smacks and Ninja kills. I also don’t really have any advice for the BR if you’re using a controller on both PC and Xbox since they should be the same game engine, since you can use mouse and keyboard on Xbox too. I wouldn’t think they would add extra bullet magnetism to consoles only.
In my experience it has always been:
2 melees
Back smack
Broken shield + Melee
The Broken shield melee is taking 2 instead of one now, but also the bullet hit registration isn’t working on PC.
Look on youtube and search exactly HALO INFINITE BR HIT REGISTRATION and you can see in slow motion the hits not registering.
Wouldn’t be surprised since I had a rough time completing a lot of weapon challenges that weren’t counting, so I skipped that Chef’s Kiss challenge for getting perfect all bullets in the head on a burst semiauto weapon like BR
I play on both PC and XBOX and I’m having a harder time on PC with the same exact inputs and settings as XBOX. It’s kind of annoying because I play on my PC and my GF uses the XBOX mostly. Also it’s just annoying to have to put more bullets into someone or die because your bullets aren’t registering.

the registration isnt busted controller is just stickier targetting. Not saying get gud but you’re just missing shots is all. I’m not perfect aim either but when my aim is on point im getting perfect kill medals once or twice in quick play games.

Same settings same input, different machine… only difference. I think you are missing that part of it. How can the same input and same settings not yield the same results. Yet I can nail 4 round BR shots on console, but on PC even when I nail a 4 round BR it isn’t killing them. I’m nearly Diamond and that’s after caring some silvers and Golds. Skill isn’t the issue… remember… in the topic it even said so. Skill isn’t the issue… it’s the hit registration.
because controller has aim assist on top of bullet magnetism and pc only has magnetism and its very little at that. You just miss is all it is
I think ALOT of you are missing it… 3 head shots on xbox break the shield and the last one kills… On PC 3 shots break his shield but after it’s broken I can go to town on his face and it won’t register. I also don’t use that aim assist crap on either so it don’t matter… mouse and keyboard. I don’t know if you are trolling at this point or genuinely can’t get it… after the mans shield is broken… I can shoot 3-4 bursts into his face with a BR and still alive. I’m hitting the shots… if I was missing I wouldn’t be complaining. I don’t complain about missing my shots. I look at what I’M doing wrong and fix it. I can’t fix having to unload more bullets into someones face when it isn’t doing damage

im not being rude or anything when I say that I understand same setting and all that but its just that simple that youre missing shots. Let me say that again for postertiy. Im not being rude you are just missing shots hit registration is fine on pc. I haven’t missed anything I read what you said already but nothings wrong with pc registration you and I mean in this case YOU are just missing shots more on pc then you do on console. Not being rude 
I have to say as well on controller you dont have a choice it just has built in aim assist or in other words sticky targetting you cant just turn it off.
OK. Aim assist aside… Hit for hit… why do I need more shots on PC vs Console. Hit for hit… I can tell when I’m hitting my mark.
3 shots equally placed
Shield Gone
last shot should kill
On PC the last shot isn’t killing… IF I wasn’t hitting my shots I wouldn’t be on here
I don’t get on forums because of a lack of skill. I get on them to find issues with games. I’m one of the guys who liked bullet holes in R6. I’m Sweaty! I only play ranked. I wreck. I don’t have a need to get validation if I am good or not. The hit registration is simply not working.

It likely has something to do with 343 removing the red reticle on PC. They did this as a countermeasure to cheaters. Normally though, the activation of red reticle would activate bullet magnetism. As red reticle is no longer present, neither is bullet magnetism on PC.

Thank you for a human response pumpkin. You read AND comprehended the topic It’s equal everything… shots, input… everything and I can notice it. Most bad players can’t notice stuff like that because they miss a lot… I don’t. When you don’t miss a lot, you notice it big time.
On pc red reticle helps but doesn’t make an important enough difference to make it the reason youre shots arent hitting though. On pc you either hit your shots or you don’t… in any shooter game. Red reticle helps with magnetism but at the end of the day, on pc, if you miss your shot its because YOU missed its not the games fault that you didnt hit your shot when you werent on target when you fired. It’s okay to miss shots and even better to admit you miss, sometimes games have a registration issue for example last word in destiny 2 on pc will literally shoot blanks when youre on target but nothing like that has happened for any weapon in infinite on pc. You are just missing its all it is. Im not being rude when I say that and its okay to miss shots we arent perfect aim bots
…and Dictator sorry about the slightly hostile response. We need need to agree on one thing… When someone’s shields are broken and you BR burst them to the head and you are 100% sure you were on target. The man should be down right?
if you hit your shot yeah. Tbh I haven’t a moment like you’re describing… yet. Maybe I will but rn after playing every day since the multiplayer launch and spending the better part of 12 hours a day on the game I have not experienced this
This is the perfect case scenario I’m talking about. I can 4 burst and they are still standing. It’s not all the time, but it become more frequent after the update.
The only game I’m having problems with hit registration is Infinite too… I have a i9-9900k, Asus Formula XI MOBO, m.2 drives, 1080 (Not the greatest but yeah), 4k monitor, 502 hero mouse… shouldn’t be having issues.
If you sus that registration is bad take someone into a custom lobby and run some tests. If its true make a video on it and get 343 aware of it. Maybe there is issues but who knows without testing. I will say sometimes I fail to control the burst from a BR at longer ranges and that will lose me a kill and lets the other guy regen shields in cover but that’s really the only times BR doesnt kill for me when I break shields, at long ranges.
It is bad enough that I put in a ticket. I’m in my 30’s so only make a complaint when I feel it may be valid. Another issue is in PC, if you use controller, aim assist isn’t there, not sure if it’s supposed to be or not. I watched my friends stream and it wouldn’t stick not one bit which I found odd.
