Hit registration is broken, mnk BR needs help in ranked

When are 343 gonna fix the hit reg in this game? Multi-bursts into popped enemies backs as they run with no kill, whiffed melee. The worst is being on mnk in open crossplay. What a joke. Shots on Bazaar across the mid area. I end up with 35% accuracy. Nothing hits (ping of 30ms) Next game in solo/duo queue Keyboard/Mouse i get 58% accuracy. i put on a controller and the BR crosshair just tracks my opponents and every shot of every burst hits a strafing enemy, but on mnk a little strafing means i’m not landing all the shots. mnk queue, i land my shots enough that i do 58%.

I’m not a bad shot, i’ve put some time into this game but this imbalance between controller and mnk in Halo just feels bad, and i want to love this game - the core mechanics are great but the awful hit reg, and over cooked aim assist in ranked controller queues feels bad.

Don’t tell me to play just mnk - the lobbies are way smaller and since the last update the ping jumps from my normal 12-13 all the way up to 180.

I keep coming back because its a great feeling competitive pvp game WHEN IT WORKS, but honestly i get better and more consistent hit reg in Destiny and that’s crappy peer to peer netcode.

Come on guys - let me play my input of choice and please balance the competitive crossplay to give mnk a chance against controller BR at least. Maybe boost the bullet mag for BR on mnk so i can challenge at range.

Rest of it s great - good fun, feels good, but please let us know what the plan is here because i don’t want to sink much more into this game with these problems.

This isn’t just a MnK issue.

I know - there are 2 things here - hit reg in general, and the mnk vs controller BR in ranked. However, the hit reg makes the BR imbalance feel way worse because you are like - is it hit reg, is it mnk vs controller, am i just bad, should i just stop playing the game.

I am not seeing anything from 343 on how to address these issues - here’s hoping because I really love the game.

players dieing 5 seconds after i shot them dead is a netcode issue too, but could it be hit registry issues?

Its possible, if latency is high the registration is delayed. You notice is also when you get a grenade kill 1-2 seconds later.
Or input lag, you press the trigger, your weapon doesnt fire. Happens a lot when you are engaged with a few player fighting for the skull “oddball”.
If you keep distance, the controller is magically working all time.
And yes, the connection quality differs from match to match. There matches where the BR headshot does not register and the next match i get an accuracy of 60% and hit registration works perfect.

I play controller on a Series S. I have the exact same problem. I don’t think this is limited to m&k or PC. At least once a game my jaw drops to the floor when I get 3 headshots in someone with no shields and the guy lives. The hit registration is poor.
