Killer Lunge Problem

I almost always play killer in the game but recently started playing survivor a lot. I'll be running away from the killer and the killer will lunge at me and hit me when the end of his weapon that he was swinging was not even in the same Galaxy as me. Im talking like the edge of his weapon will be on the other side of a pallets distance away and I still take damage. I don't notice this when I play killer so I'm assuming it's mostly a connection problem since the killer is the host of the match. The question I have though is the actual length of the killers weapon representative to the reach of the weapon because if it's not then that's deceptive for survivors?

This is a link to a video that shows what I'm talking about.

    The broken hitbox system has been discussed a lot lately on the forums and in videos. It’s nothing new, really. Dedicated Servers should solve the problem though, hopefully.

    Yeah there can be some BS hits but a lot of the crap hits are latency and nothing can be done for that..... that's just ######### matchmaking

    Its latency, weapon size doesn't factor into reach. Your probably just on the edge of the hotbox which is why they are hitting but looks like a miss.
