My biggest issue at the moment: Hit registration and multiple combatants | Forums

[The.Odee]

Ok, so after playing a bit I've found my hit registration to be off quite often. I swing at people and it sure looks like my axe is going straight through them but nothing happens. It's really frustrating to swing away at people and my swings doesn't hit. This is not about being good.
This gets incredibly obvious when several people are attacking the same target. I know there can be obstacles for a swing so it doesn't connect etc, but even if I make sure to swing from the right side you can be sure if a team mate of mine is already attacking this dude, my swings aren't gonna register. It's more likely that I swing through him and hit my team mate. It's like the animations make them invulnerable or something.

This is definitely something that needs to be worked on A LOT since this game is focused on hand to hand combat with multiple combatants. This is the core of the game and it's working poorly right now.

Hmm, I've not experienced this at all on PC.

I'm curious about those of you who are having this problem. A post like yours doesnt help the dev's work out why this is happening without having more info.

For the original poster and any others with this problem, could you please state which platform you are playing on, and also what speed your internet runs at.

For example:

Platform - PC
INet d/l speed - 100Mbps
iNet upload speed - 6Mbps
Country - England
Lag experience - None, totally fine for me.

I'm on PC as well with a 100/50 connection in Sweden. The latency/lag seems fine, it's more like the people I try to hit doesn't get hit because they're already in an animation, if that makes sense.

When you signed the alpha in the invitation, it did note that the connection issues such as player joining in, hit registration, etc. WILL happen. It's pretty obvious due to a selected number of people participated in.

Your upload and download speeds are useless in this case. It is all about latency. You could easily play just about any game online without issue on a 5 megabit connection as long as the latency was low.
