Has BR Changed to 5-shot?

So I’ve been playing a few games today, and Ive noticed its no longer possible to get a perfect with a BR. I should have got about a dozen today so far, but its taking 5 headshots minimum to kill anyone. I’ve checked my connection, 76mb/s down, 20 up and 11ms of ping so its definitely not that. Checked router etc. Is this actually a change because I’m experiencing zero connection issues, yet its impossible for me to 4-shot someone with the BR. What the hell is going on? I keep turning away expecting people to be dead then get killed

its still a 4sk…its either ur aim or connection

It’s still a 4 shot you’re just missing your shots mate

You could also grab a friend and go to custom games and try to see if you can hit the 4 shots

Please don’t patronise me. I know when I’ve missed a shot, even if the game didn’t actually make it apparent if you’ve hit or missed, and its not my connection. No other weapon is affected. I’m still perfectly 5-shotting with magnums and DMRs. Only the BR is affected.

I would go to custom games and investigate this. I’ve been playing all day, and haven’t noticed anything different with the BR, which I’ve used pretty extensively in doubles.

Sorry, my friend, but the BR is still a 4-shot. It’s definitely an issue on your end.

Look, there’s nothiing that’s been changed, you’d have heard about it. Either you’re miscounting, your connection is off, or you’re missing your shots. Nothing’s been changed. Don’t be stubborn and say it has, because it hasn’t.

I don’t know anyone who plays Halo lol I’ve noticed it might be because I’m om BTB and that horrible framerate issue seems to be worse than ever

I literally just played a match of BTB and got some perfect kills in 4 shots with the BR.

ok, glad that’s been cleared up, now let’s stop posting on this thread. It’s distracting for pepole.

Lol settle down lad, I never said it wasn’t connection related, and I never said its definitely changed to 5 shot, I’m more implying that 343s servers are -Yoinked!- AGAIN. Nothing else is having even the slightest problem. “Miscounting”. Jesus Christ I’ve played thousands of matches I know when I am and am not hitting the right amount of shots.

I miss a lot of my shots with the BR. Trust me, I do. But when I manage to pull Perfects, even now, it’s 4-shot. Recommend doing what the guys before me said and testing this in Customs.

Sorry, I got a bit carried away there. Didn’t reread my post. My apologies :confused:

Where do you live?

I’ve been on the receiving end of a number of three shot perfects when playing on foreign servers. Yeah, I know its technically 4, but you never see the first one hit. That said, I’ve had my fair share of 4 shot perfects where I’ve only landed 1 shot on target from my POV.

Foreign latency is a harsh mistress.

Canada, in the middle of nowhere without great internet. Why?
