How is the Plague bug vomit not registering a hit STILL pending close to a year now
I just played a Plague game, and I ran into it again where I spewed my Vile Purge onto a healthy survivor. I connected, he made a scream, but he was not infected.
I searched the forum for this and it has already been submitted to the Bug Forum from last year and both of them are still PENDING.
Yes it doesn't happen all the time; if it did she would be 100% broken.

And it's not just plague. Deathslinger and rarely huntress and nemesis have similar issues.

Before dedicated servers this was not a problem. So the problem has to be related to the servers

If anything it's gotten worse. I wasnt playing plague but iv had her puke hit me and not infect me and iv had her corrupt puke go straight through me without injuring me.
Like most issues it will to be with servers, crossplay etc. Things that are trying to connect multiple people to a singular game and have it working on all ends.
DBD is just one of those companies that struggles with such tasks. It's why alot of companies branch out when having games on multiple platforms as console and pc are vastly different

i would think running dedicated servers would be preferable than player hosted. Unless their server is running at 15 tick rate or something really low.

It's getting worse on Deathslinger too. So many shots that should've connected on my end just don't anymore. BHVR needs to fix something about their ranged killers please

From those comments it seems as if the pallet fix screwed up some parts of DBD code for hit registration in general.
The killer does something in accordance to what they see but the server does not validate it in accordance of what survivor might see and vice versa?
And now the server is the judge for more latency sensitive interactions?

Plague's puke has been broken since the dedicated server release due to how it was designed(Its a LOT of projectiles with a lot of interaction code instead of a constant/consistent stream).
However its only gotten worse with time and well the hit rollback only makes it worse then every before.

So, Sole Survivor? I'm pretty sure that that perk has literally never worked. It has never worked. Never. Not on day one, not now. It would be a useless perk even if it did work, but my point is, don't hold your breath. It's DBD we're talking about here.

god that perk, it doesn’t work still and it even had a major patch that stated it was fixed and it only fixed the perk not lighting up, it either doesn’t work or the gain is almost unnoticeable

This still happens to me to this day. I posted a few threads about it but they all get buried lol.
I doubt this will ever get fixed unless they rework the way her purges work.

Says a lot about the company that they can't be bothered to fix it after such a long time still. And for me it kills any incentive to get any new killer for the time being. After I pretty much got shafted for being dumb enough getting Plague.

Wow this is still happening, just had a match on the game where every time I used vile purge on a survivor playing the nea it went right through her without damage and on the others it would do this on pallet vaults and drops going right through their model with no effect. the nea also would not get hit by the normal purge.
