Servers and hitboxes

Like come on. I have never seen anyone in a while complain about the servers and the hitboxes of this game. I have been playing this game for quite a while and i get so often dedicated or get hit where i am not supposed to. Literally the hitboxes of this game are bs. Killers can hit you from around corners while u have successfully fast vaulted over and can still hit you while you are so far away and have vaulted from quite a distance i mean come on. This thing is getting more frustrating time to time i play DBD and its so annoying to die because of dedicated servers and hitboxes that should NOT count as a hit when the killer is so far away or when you drop a palet and its SO OBVIOUS that he couldnt have hit that but somehow he does? I have not seen many people complain about this and i doubt i am the only one with these observations. Please fix your hitboxes and servers so we can actually agree that you ACTUALLY get hit by the killer

    Meanwhile when I play killer, survivors are already immune to melee-hits halfway through the fastvault-animation. Quick pallet drops (when not holding down the run-button) are an unreactable instant-stun, and survivors can litterally Dead Hard a hit that already finished like half a second ago.

    You must have good ping, I suppose. For me it's the same and I have 30-35 ms stable. Unironically, dedicated servers favor laggers and punish good pings on the killer side, not the other way around. Or rather, they work for good pings and don't fix the issue with bad pings.

    However, if I play survivor, I get some very disgusting hits. Sometimes, I even see the killer do the whole missed swing animation and then all of a sudden a bubble of blood bursts out. Let's not even talk about dead hard.

    In near enough every online game I have played laggers are at an advantage. However a lagger can always be beaten by another lagger in games. But due to Dbd's asymmetrical nature, this doesn't quite apply here.

    Dead hard is literally broken when u use it and u get exhausted without triggering or u press it and doesnt even trigger at al lets just not talk about that. Today i was literally waiting at the palet for the killer to swing and i threw the palet when he was at the other side of so far away and i got hit like there is NO WAY that hits

    I get it about the ping but my ping is usually 100 ms which i dont find as bad but the hits are so disgusting and it happens all the time and it gets so annoying which literally wants to make me quit playing every single day. You just trying to chill and play this casual game, then u bloody rage due to the bs hits that happen every single time
