Is the hit detection/latency just getting increasingly worse?
Hit detection has always been an issue on survivor side, even more so lately to the point that I've noticed that killer weapons no longer connect to my body even though I understand it did hit, but it seems to be getting worse on Killer side as well. I've had multiple games as killer where I will hit the survivor they'll scream, I'll go through the weapon cleansing animation and they're still somehow running away. And maybe it's just me, but lately when I play the plague I've been noticing her corrupt purge just phasing through survivors. I even had a match where a survivor stood still because they gave up, and when I used my corrupt purge on them the hit didn't register until I had continuously vomited on them for an entire second. I also pre-vomited at a window I knew the survivor was going to run to and they still managed to phase through the vomit and jump through the window without taking any damage.

Plague has had issues for MONTHS with that. As does doc where a shock will pass right thru someone. I get robbed of window hits CONSTANTLY but when I am survivor I get hit after fully vaulting through but can't hit someone still mid animation. I stand by my belief that the servers favor bad ping over good ping.

Yeah, as survivor I can vault and take about 3 steps away from the window and still get hit but somehow vomiting at a window before a survivor even hops through it still doesn't hit them.

Hit detection in this game is GARBAGE! My daughter and I play together often, and we both complain how a thrown hatchet can land 10 ft in front us and yet, blood splatters from our character with a painful grunt and we are injured. Like...what?!. This morning I was easily over a pallet AND 10 feet in front of it when a legion BEHIND the pallet M1d and...I was downed. One the other hand, I have seen Nem tentacles slam down RIGHT on me and not register...or feel I was definitely hit by a lunge yet continued to run unscathed.
Even still, this game is still my favorite thing out there, so I just end up forgiving the crap hit detection when it happens.

It's probably the most frustrating thing for me out of all. The fact I get robbed when doing well makes me not wanna play and rage quit (I don't). Huntress hatchets are magical objects much like BIlly's chainsaw and Oni's club. They hit thru objects and around corners.... unless I am playing them ha ha.

Exactly! But I had to be fair too...sometimes I DO witness killers getting shafted because of it. I would think an over 5 year old game would have precise mechanics by now =/ Well...I vaguely recall reading or hearing something about how small female models look like they get hit when they shouldn't because their hitboxes had to match Ash (I guess the biggest male model in the game) out of fairness/equality for gameplay...but idk how true that was.

I’ve considered geting worst internet due to the hit reg. having good connection for some reason penalises you if the killer has bad ping when in reality it should be the opposite, in 7-10 of my games I’m always like how did that hit me…
I no my hit lunge distance I’ve played the game long enough …. The worst is when you hear the wiff and you get hit after the animation is finished…. makes sense or when your hit by a killer that is not even facing your direction … what have they possible hit ? I also feel like they have removed the pallet hits that they fixed. Recently I’ve had a few to many games I have clearly stunned the killer and they get stunned and then I go down :/ like how if they are stunned and in the Stun animation how are they swinging their weapon? But this has been a issues for the duration of this game. Hatchets don’t even get me started victor…. Both have a hitbox the size of a fridge both go flying past you but you have been hit it’s laughable,

Again, with good ping vs say, oh I dunno, someone using a VPN, Victor bounces off them like they are an inflatable castle.

I hit a survivor, they scream and get a speed boost, I clean my weapon and get a STBTL Stack and they don't change healthstate.
Normal tomfuckery.
