Well seeing DICE members offering advice and some support on here, I would like to know something.
Is the hit detection going to improve? I hate when you are being stealthy, you sneak up on a player, stab hear it hit and it does nothing. I have even done it 2 or 3 times before it will register. Thats only for the players that isn't paying attention, cause most will hear the first one and your down. Which is fine, kudos for them for listing.
I have even sneaked behind a player and waited a second or two and stab! and guess what, it doesn't hit.
It doesn't matter if I have a ping of 10 or 100 it still happens.
I remember in the BF2 days, either around patch 1.12 or patch 1.2 the hit detection was great. It would actually register on the first or second time. Then a patch came out and its been shady ever since. Its bad enough the animation is slow compared to the other BF series, but the off detection is just to much with the slow animation.
Before others come in and chime their opinions on my thread, I do know where to hit on a player (19:1 :D ). Its not like i am trying to knife them in their toe or at 15m away. I have adapted to the hit detection, but I would just like to see it improve some.
Thx:cool:

QFT = Quoted for Truth

And yeah. Knife detection is... ah... unreliable.

I've literally been kneeling on a sniper's back and stabbed him 5 friggen times only to have him nail me in the head at point blank with his rifle.

I mean, I coulda strangled him faster!

There is a sound called "dogtag.ogg", if you do actually hit you can hear this. But it does not always register server sided which is annoying beyond recognition!

Yeah it annoys me so much that I usually go for the defib kill instead, much more reliable.

Strange, all my NNN+ tags were registered and there was only one occassion when i said WTF. Then i realized that i hit the KIT not the flesh, since than, no worries and if you know the spots, it's 100% reliable.

Learn2knife imo and get a lacket loss free connection, then you're good to go.

It would be cool if you could sneak up behind a sniper and cut his legs off. lmao

I dont think its a "Learn2knife" issue.

My roommate and I every once and a like to test things out on a local game, and even then it was an issue. As host, I had a ping of 0 and he a ping of 2 - even when he knifed me standing up not moving in the chest, it didnt always register (even though we heard the sound.)

I have noticed that hit detection is better (not perfect) if you are in the same stance as the person (ie both prone, both standing etc), though it is not perfect.

Yeah tried it that route also.
