So I played survivor facing an Oni who used Blood Fury I vaulted a window and started falling from a great hight but SOMEHOW got hit mid air while he was facing the window and I was no where near it clearly this isn't the game deciding and my and his connection wasn't bad meaning there's some kind of fourth party hidden in there. Now what makes it even BETTER I can hit a LITERALLY ON MY SCREEN IT HITS a survivor who vaulted a window did a corner fast vault so kinda slow fast thing THEM NOT BEING EVEN FAR FROM THE WINDOW and it misses. How just explain how that works or is fair.

    Any ping over 50 can easily be enough to cause strange latency hits. Doesn't take much. Sucks, but there's not much that can be done about it. I had a Nurse do somethin similar the other day. I was bein chased on RPD 2nd floor. Dropped through the library hole as the Nurse blinked. On my screen she hit me mid air then finished blinking to the 1st floor. On their screen I was probably already on the ground. My ping was at 48 and there weren't any killer ping warning bars.

    If you're falling from a height, your hitbox stays suspended in air until you hit the ground.

    If you vaulted from a height, the killer can still hit you through the window until you land.

    this is unfortunately true but a very dubious game mechanic.
